Answer:

<u>Distance:</u> 9 km

<u>Displacement:</u> 3 km

Explanation:

Distance takes into account the entire path that, in this case, Preston walked, while displacement, considers only the difference between the initial and final point.

In the picture, the different paths represent as a whole the distance he covered (5+3+1), whereas, the start and final point represent displacement (3-0)

How are the three lines of defense the same? They all involve producing fever. They all involve fighting pathogens. They all inv
raketka [301]

Answer:

THEY ALL INVOLVE FIGHTING PATHOGENS

Explanation:

The immune system which is involved in defending the body against infections are diseases involves three lines of defense which are all involved in fighting against pathogens. Pathogens are invaders which when introduced into the body causes harm and therefore makes us sick. The body's first line of defense includes the physical barriers such as the skin, mucous membrane; chemical barriers such as tears, saliva, gastric acid in the stomach. These helps to keep the pathogens from entering the delicate parts of the body and once the pathogens find their way out of the reach of the first line of defense, the second line of defense is initiated. This includes inflammatory effects, swelling, redness, phagocytosis by neutrophils and macrophages. The third line of defense is the actions of lymphocytes which acts on invading microbes. The lymphocytes are of two types; the B and T cells. B cells produces antibodies which fight the antigens and T cells attack the infected cells of the body. There is also the memory cells which keeps information about the invading microbes for future attacks. This enables the body to respond swiftly when next the same type of pathogens attack.

What is the total charge of the nucleus of a carbon atom?<br> (1) –6 (3) +6<br> (2) 0 (4) +12
NeX [460]
Carbon atomic number ⇒ 6
Carbon mass number ⇒ 12.

Carbon atomic number - Carbon mass number = number of neutrons.
12 - 6 = 6 neutrons.

Proton charge ⇒ +1

The total charge of the nucleus of a carbon atom ⇒⇒⇒ +6.

So the naswer is (3) +6

The reaction is first order in cyclopropane and has a measured rate constant of k=3.36×10−5 s−1 at 720 k. if the initial cyclopr
sergey [27]

Answer:

0.0277 M.

Explanation:

The integral rate law of a first order reaction:

<em>Kt = ln ([A₀]/[A]),</em>

where, k is the rate constant of the reaction <em>(k = 3.36 × 10⁻⁵ s⁻¹)</em>,

t is the time of the reaction <em>(t = 235.0 min = 14100 s)</em>,

[A₀] is the initial concentration of cyclopropane <em>([A₀] = 0.0445 M)</em>

<em>∵ Kt = ln ([A₀]/[A]),</em>

∴ (3.36 × 10⁻⁵ s⁻¹)(14100 s) = ln (0.0445 M)/[A]

Taking the exponential of both sides:

1.6 = (0.0445 M)/[A]

<em>∴ [A] = (0.0445 M)/1.6 = 0.0277 M.</em>
