Answer: They’re different estates for people, I guess.

Explanation: “Apartment” comes from “Appartement” (French) and “Appartimento” (Italian) which means... separated.

Answer:

he word Apartment derives from the French apartment. ... An apartment came to be called so because it has individual/private rooms for different people, on the same floor. These rooms were, of course, apart. In Britain, apartments are called "flats", as everyone knows.

Describe with an example how corroded structures can lead to environment pollution? ​
raketka [301]
According to EonCoat, corrosion is the process of decay on a material caused by a chemical reaction with its environment. Corrosion of metal occurs when an exposed surface comes in contact with a gas or liquid, and the process is accelerated by exposure to warm temperature, acids, and salts.” (1)
Although the word ‘corrosion’ is used to describe the decay of metals, all natural and man-made materials are subject to decay, and the level of pollutants in the air can speed up this process.

If you want to obtain a Class E license before you turn 18, you must______. A. be in compliance with school attendance requireme
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. be in compliance with school attendance requirements

Explanation:

The requirements to acquire a special restricted driver's license for driver's license for under under 18 that have had a beginner's for up to 180 days include a minimum of 40 hours driving practice 10 of which should be in the dark. The application for the conditional drivers license is to be signed by the parent or guardian and the application is to be accompanied with proof of acceptable school attendance

At 17, after holding the special restricted drivers licence for a year without issues you can obtain the full drivers license.

1. The construction process begins with which of the following stages?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

c) site preparation

Explanation:

A construction process can be defined as a series of important physical events (processes) that must be accomplished during the execution of a construction project.

Generally, in the construction of any physical asset such as offices, hospitals, schools, stadiums etc, the first step of the construction process is site preparation. Site preparation refers to processes such as clearing, blasting, levelling, landfilling, surveying, cutting, excavating and demolition of all unwanted objects on a piece of land, so as to make it ready for use.

This ultimately implies that, site preparation should be the first task to be accomplished in the construction process.

Hence, the construction process typically begins with site preparation before other activities such as the laying of foundation can be done.

Additionally, construction costs can be defined as the overall costs associated with the development of a built asset, project or property. The construction costs is classified into two (2) main categories and these are; capital and operational costs.

A parallel plates capacitor is filled with a dielectric of relative permittivity ε = 12 and a conductivity σ = 10^-10 S/m. The c
monitta

Answer:

t = 1.06 sec

Explanation:

Once disconnected from the battery, the capacitor discharges through the internal resistance of the dielectric, which can be expressed as follows:

R = (1/σ)*d/A, where d is is the separation between plates, and A is the area of one of  the plates.

The capacitance C , for a parallel plates capacitor filled with a dielectric of a relative permittivity ε, can be expressed in this way:

C = ε₀*ε*A/d = 8.85*10⁻¹² *12*A/d

The voltage in the capacitor (which is proportional to the residual charge as it discharges through the resistance of the dielectric) follows an exponential decay, as follows:

V = V₀*e(-t/RC)

The product RC (which is called the time constant of the circuit) can be calculated as follows:

R*C = (1/10⁻¹⁰)*d/A*8.85*10⁻¹² *12*A/d

Simplifying common terms, we finally have:

R*C = 8.85*10⁻¹² *12 / (1/10⁻¹⁰) sec = 1.06 sec

If we want to know the time at which the voltage will decay to 3.67 V, we can write the following expression:

V= V₀*e(-t/RC) ⇒ e(-t/RC) = 3.67/10 ⇒ -t/RC = ln(3.67/10)= -1

⇒ t = RC = 1.06 sec.
