Find the linear function Cequals​f(F) that gives the reading on the Celsius temperature scale corresponding to a reading on the

Fahrenheit scale. Use the facts that Cequals0 when Fequals32 ​(freezing point) and Cequals100 when Fequals212 ​(boiling point). b. At what temperature are the Celsius and Fahrenheit readings​ equal?

Answer:

C = (5/9) F - (160/9)

They both read equal at Z = - 40

Explanation:

We are looking for a linear function so we can write the following condition

Y = aX + b

Applying it to the exercise we got C = a F + b

Let's use the facts that C = 0 when F = 32 and C = 100 when F = 212

0 = 32 a + b            (1)

100 = 212 a + b       (2)

From (1) b = - 32 a , when we replace this in (2) we obtain a = (5/9)

and b = - (5/9)32 = - 160/9

Finally the linear function is C = (5/9) F - (160/9)

Both readings are equal at a Z number so

Z = (5/9) Z - 160/9

(4/9) Z = -160/9 and Z = - 40

What is the most important role that water plays for living organisms
LuckyWell [14K]

-well, we all need water as living organisms in order to live. water helps us clean our body (just like you clean yourself in a shower to clean your skin),but drinking water helps you to take a shower inside your body! (sounds weird but true XD) you get the point... here are a few things water does to our body:

- water helps helps our skin to look beautiful (you can say youthful skin) and even beauty itself.

- it trashes body waste and toxins (like i said above)

- it gives us nutrients and minerals

- it helps us to maintain out blood pressure

- it also helps to regulate our body temperature

- it transfers oxygen through the whole body

- it helps with digestion

-  weigh loss

- gives you energy ( thats why when your exercising you need to drink water every 15 min XD)

-prevents from you have a stinky breath *-*

- it helps with back-pain, headaches, heart health...etc

- it helps boost your immune system

- increases your brain power

so those are what i got for you about why water is important to us  :D

An element's atomic number is 112. How many electrons would an atom of this element have?
PIT_PIT [208]

Without any ionization, the element (Cn) would have 112 electrons because the atomic number of an element is the number of protons the element has and a neutral element has the same number of electrons as it does protons.

Rutherford’s gold foil experiment demonstrated that
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The space between the large nucleus and the electrons is huge. We know this because the alpha particles shot at the gold foil most went right on through. That means that the space between hold atoms is very large.

B

Not only that but the deflection that takes place is not frequent further telling us that the the nucleus must be positively charged. That observation comes from the deflection itself. The charge on the nucleus must be the same as the alpha particle. If they were different, and the nucleus was negative, those particles that were deflected would now be absorbed.
