Answer:

2:1

Explanation:

It is given that,

The diameter of a white blood cell is 12 micrometers

The diameter of white blood cell according to a model is 24 micrometers.

We need to find the ratio of model size to actual size. It can be done as follows :

R=\dfrac{\text{model size}}{\text{actual size}}\\\\R=\dfrac{24\ \mu m}{12\ \mu m}\\\\R=\dfrac{2}{1}

Hence, the ratio of model size to actual size is 2:1.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

451.13 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)............... Equation 1

Where Q = Heat, c = specific heat capacity of iron, m = mass of iron, t₂= Final temperature, t₁ = initial temperature.

Make c the subject of the equation

c = Q/m(t₂-t₁).............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: Q = 1500 J, m = 133 g = 0.113 kg, t₁ = 20 °C, t₂ = 45 °C

Substitute these values into equation 2

c = 1500/[0.133(45-20)]

c = 1500/(0.133×25)

c = 1500/3.325

c = 451.13 J/kg.°C

One cereal bar has a mass of 37 g. What is the mass of 6 cereal bars? Is that more than or less than 1 kg? Explain your answer.
GuDViN [60]

The mass is 222g.  No, it is less than 1kg.  There are 1000 grams in a kilogram so it would be 0.222kg.  Hope this Helps :D

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Rhizobium.

Explanation:

The roots of most of these plants have nitrogen-fixing bacteria known as rhizobium. It helps to change nitrogen which is present in the air into the nitrates which are plants, and that is need to synthesize proteins.

Rhizobium bacteria occupy the root hairs which are present on the plants, they help the plant to grow and keep up with other plants. When the one plant dies, the fixed nitrogen which is present in it will release, and making it available for other plants, and this process helps to fertilize the soil in the environment.

How much electrical energy is used by a 75 W laptop that is operating for 12<br>minutes?​
Liono4ka [1.6K]

"1 watt" means 1 joule of energy per second.

75 W means 75 joules/sec .

Energy = (75 Joule/sec) x (12 min) x (60 sec/min)

Energy = (75 x 12 x 60) (Joule-<em>min-sec</em> / <em>sec-min</em>)

<em>Energy = 54,000 Joules</em>
