Answer:

A shoulder, or hard shoulder is an emergency stopping lane by the verge of a road or motorway, on the right in countries which drive on the right, or on the left side in India, Japan, the UK, Australia, and other left-side driving countries.

A pump is used to transport water from a reservoir at one elevation to another reservoir at a higher elevation. If the elevation

erastova [34]

Answer:b

Explanation:

We know power delivered by Pump is

$P=\rho \times Q\times g\times \Delta H$

where $P\rho$ =Density of fluid

$Q$ =Flow rate

$g$ =acceleration due to gravity

$\Delta H$ =Change in Elevation

If $\Delta H$ is increased by 4 time then

$P'=\rho \times Q\times g\times (4\Delta H)$

$P'=4 P$

So power increases by four times.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has standards and regulations that says that the lead level in soil cannot exceed the

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Check One-Sample T-Interval Conditions

Random Sample? √

Sample Size ≥30? √

Independent? √

Population Standard Deviation Unknown? √

One-Sample T-Interval Information

Formula --> $CI=\bar{x}\pm t^*(\frac{S_x}{\sqrt{n}})$
Sample Mean --> $\bar{x}=390.25$
Critical Value --> $t^*=2.0096$ (given $df=n-1=50-1=49$ degrees of freedom at a 95% confidence level)
Sample Size --> $n=50$
Sample Standard Deviation --> $S_x=30.5$

Problem 1

The critical t-value, as mentioned previously, would be $t^*=2.0096$ , making the 95% confidence interval equal to $CI=\bar{x}\pm t^*(\frac{S_x}{\sqrt{n}})=390.25\pm2.0096(\frac{30.5}{\sqrt{50}})\approx\{381.5819,398.9181\}$

This interval suggests that we are 95% confident that the true mean levels of lead in soil are between 381.5819 and 398.9181 parts per million (ppm), which satisfies the EPA's regulated maximum of 400 ppm.

3. If nothing can ever be at absolute zero, why does the concept exist?

Tanzania [10]

The absolute zero in temperature refers to the minimal possible temperature. It is the temperature at which the molecules of a system stop moving, so it is a really useful reference point.

<h3>Why absolute zero can't be reached?</h3>

It would mean that we need to remove all the energy from a system, but to do this we need to interact with the system in some way, and by interacting with it we give it "some" energy.

Actually, from a quantum mechanical point of view, the absolute zero has a residual energy (so it is not actually zero) and it is called the "zero point". This happens because it must meet Heisenberg's uncertainty principle.

So yes, the absolute zero can't be reached, but there are really good approximations (At the moment there is a difference of about 150 nanokelvins between the absolute zero and the smallest temperature reached). Also, there are a lot of investigations near the absolute zero, like people that try to reach it or people that just need to work with really low temperatures, like in type I superconductors.

So, concluding, why does the concept exist?

Because it is a reference point.
It is the theoretical temperature at which the molecules stop moving, defining this as the minimum possible temperature.
