Answer:

b)

Explanation:

By convention, the electric field lines (which are tangent to the direction of the electric field at a given point) always begin at positive charges, and finish at negative charges.

This is a consequence of the convention that states that the electric field has the direction of the trajectory of a positive test charge when released from rest in an electric field.

(As the positive charge would move away from positive charges and would  be attracted by negative ones).

So, the combination of answers that is true is b) (positive, negative, positive).

You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the Empire State Building.
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

22.505 seconds

Explanation:

V =19.8m/s

V = a*to

t1 = 19.8/3.3

= 6seconds

Distance travelled during acceleration

= 1/2 x 3.3 x 6²

= 59.4m

X_total = x1 + x2

X2 = 373-59.4

X2 = 313.6m

t2 = x2/v

= 313.6/19.8

= 16.505

Total = 16.505 + 6

= 22.505 seconds

the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor is 22.505 seconds.

Before designing the filter, one must understand the relationship between the output voltage of the circuit and the frequency. F
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Option b. is correct

Explanation:

An RLC electrical circuit consists of constituent components: a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C). A resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor are connected in series or parallel.

The impedances of the circuit elements depend on the frequency.

Both impedance magnitudes decrease when the frequency increases

what do scientific models predict will happen to Earths oceans if current trends continue unmitigated?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

I think that the answer is "Coral bleaching will continue to harm aquatic organisms.

Explanation:

Global warming causes the ocean temperatures to rise and also its pH to decrease due to increased dissolved carbon dioxide in the waters.

Due to the unfavorable temperatures and pH, the algae dissociate from the symbiotic relationship with coral polyps (as a survival mechanism) hence leaving the coral white (coral bleaching).

The symbiotic relationship is key for the survival of the coral polyps hence most die following the dissociation.

This upsets the reef ecosystem and affects all aquatic organisms that depend on the reef.
