Answer: The size of the ion and the charge of the ion are the factors that affect solubility in water.

Explanation:

Lead lose electrons to become cations. Compounds with small ions tend to be less soluble than compounds with large ions. Large ions have higher solubility. This is because small ions are closely packed so it is difficult for water to break them apart.

Compounds with small ions seemingly have less solubility than those with large ions. The ions in the compound attract each other, and the water molecules attract the ions. Compounds would be soluble in water If the water molecules have a greater or higher attraction to the ions than ions have for each other.

A system has a level 1 cache and a level 2 cache. The hit rate of the level 1 cache is 90% and the hit rate of the level 2 cache

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

B) 2.22

Explanation:

In a first step, the system will look in cache number 1. If it is not found in cache number 1, then the system will look in cache number 2. Finally (if not in cache 2 also) the system will look in main memory.

The average access time will take into consideration success in cache 1, failure in cache number 1 but success in cache number 2, failure in cache number 1 and 2 but success in main memory.

Mathematically we can write it into the following equation :

$AAT=(H1.T1)+(1-H1).H2.T2+(1-H1).(1-H2).Hm.Tm$

Where AAT is the average access time

H1,H2 and Hm are the hit rate of cache 1,cache 2 and main memory respectively.

T1,T2 and Tm are the access time of cache 1, cache 2 and main memory respectively

Hm = 1

$AAT=(0.9).(1)+(1-0.9).(0.8).(4)+(1-0.9).(1-0.8).(1).(50)=0.9+0.32+1=2.22$

$AAT=2.22$

Therefore, option b) is the correct.

What percentage of the map would have unhealthy levels of arsenic (140 total squares)?

Daniel [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

so you said 140 in total and it's a square

it's basically finding the perimeter of the square

so 35 is each side of the square that I am imagining in my head

so if you add 35...4 times you will get 140

for example:35

+ 35

140

or 35×4=140

A displacement transducer has the following specifications: Linearity error ± 0.25% reading Drift ± 0.05%/○C reading Sensitivity

White raven [17]

Answer:

The Estimated uncertainty in a nominal displacement of 2 cm at the design stage is plus or minus 0.0124cm

Explanation:

uncertainty in a nominal displacement

= (u^2 + v^2)^(1/2)

assume from specifications that k = 5v/5cm

= 1v/cm

u^2 = (0.0025*2)^(2) + (0.005*10*2)^2 + (0.0025*2)^2

= 0.01225v

v = 2v * 0.001

= 0.002v

uncertainty in a nominal displacement

= (u^2 + v^2)^(1/2)

= ((0.01225)^2 + (0.002)^2)^(1/2)

= 0.0124 cm

Therefore, The Estimated uncertainty in a nominal displacement of 2 cm at the design stage is plus or minus 0.0124cm

A wood pipe having an inner diameter of 3 ft. is bound together using steel hoops having a cross sectional area of 0.2 in^2. The

Minchanka [31]

Answers:

31.7 inches

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter = 3ft

Let D = Diameter

So, D = 3ft. (Convert to inches)

D = 3 * 12in = 36 inches

Coss-sectional area of the steel = 0.2in²

Gauge Pressure (P) = 4psi

Stress in Steel (σ)= 11.4ksi

Force in steel = ½ (Pressure * Projected Area)

Area (A) = 2 * Force/Pressure

Also, Area (A) = Spacing (S) * Wood Pipe Diameter

Area = Area

2*Force/Pressure = Spacing * Diameter

Substitute values I to the above expression

2 * Force / 4psi = S * 36 inches

Also

Force in steel (F) = Stress in steel (σ) × Cross-sectional area of the steel

So, F = 11.4ksi * 0.2in²

F = 11.4 * 10³psi * 0.2in²

F = 2.28 * 10³ psi.in²

So, 2 * Force / 4psi = S * 36 becomes

2 * 2.28 * 10³/4 = S * 36

S = 2 * 2.28 * 10³ / (4 * 36)

S = 4560/144

S = 31.66667 inches

S = 31.7 inches (approximated)
