The time constant is how long will the current decrease by 1/e. The numerical value of this is approximately equal to 0.37. Since we are looking at the decrease which is equal to 1 less than this value, the answer would be 0.63. Thus, the answer to this item is letter E.

E, 63% of the value. I forget the rationale behind it but I learnt that in engineering. 90% confident for that answer.

A human being can be electrocuted if a current as small as 51.0 ma passes near the heart. an electrician working with sweaty han
boyakko [2]

The fatal current is 51 mA = 0.051 Ampere.

The resistance is 2,050Ω .

Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

            =  (0.051 Ampere) x (2,050 Ω)  =  104.6 volts .

==================

This is what the arithmetic says IF the information in the question
is correct.

I don't know how true this is, and I certainly don't plan to test it,
but I have read that a current as small as  15 mA  through the
heart can be fatal, not  51 mA .

If 15 mA can do it, and the sweaty electrician's resistance is
really 2,050 Ω, then the fatal voltage could be as little as  31 volts !

The voltage at the wall-outlets in your house is  120 volts in the USA !
THAT's why you don't want to stick paper clips or a screwdriver into
outlets, and why you want to cover unused outlets with plastic plugs
if there are babies crawling around.

A car moving at 10.0 m/s encounters a depression in the road that has a circular cross-section with a radius of 30.0 m. What is
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

F = 789 Newton

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of the car, v = 10 m/s

Radius of circular path, r = 30 m

Mass of the passenger, m = 60 kg

To find :

The normal force exerted by the seat of the car when the it is at the bottom of the depression.

Solution,

Normal force acting on the car at the bottom of the depression is the sum of centripetal force and its weight.

N=mg+\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

N=m(g+\dfrac{v^2}{r})

N=60\times (9.81+\dfrac{(10)^2}{30})

N = 788.6 Newton

N = 789 Newton

So, the normal force exerted by the seat of the car is 789 Newton.

What process is represented by this redox equation ? 6H 2 O+6CO 2 C 6 H 12 O 6 +6O 2
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

C. Photosynthesis

Explanation:

The redox reaction given in this question is given as follows:

6H2O + 6CO2 → C6H12O6 + 6O2

In this reaction, water (H2O) reacts with carbon dioxide (CO2) to form glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen (O2). This is the general equation for PHOTOSYNTHESIS process, which is the process whereby plants manufacture their food (sugar) by combining water and carbon dioxide.

In the equation above, water is oxidized into oxygen, while carbon dioxide is reduced into glucose. This makes it an oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction.
