uppose the weights of Farmer Carl's potatoes are normally distributed with a mean of 9 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.8 ou

nces. (a) Carl only wants to sell the best potatoes to his friends and neighbors at the farmer's market. According to weight, this means he wants to sell only those potatoes that are among the heaviest 25%. What is the minimum weight required to be brought to the farmer's market?

Answer:

x= 9.53 ounces

Explanation:

Given that

Mean ,μ= 9 ounces

Standard deviation ,σ=0.8 ounces

He wants to sell only those potatoes that are among the heaviest 25%.

P=25% = 0.25

When P= 0.25 then Z=0.674

Lest take x is the the minimum weight required to be brought to the farmer's market.

We know that

x = Z . σ + μ

x= 0.674 ₓ 0.8 + 9 ounces

x= 9.53 ounces

If the resistivity of copper is less than that of gold at room temperature, which of the following statements must be true? Gold
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Gold Has A Higher Resistance Than Copper. The Sample Of Gold Is Thinner Than The Sample Of Copper. Electrons In Gold Are More Likely To Be Scattered Than Electrons In Copper At Room Temperature When they are exelerated by the same electric field.

xConsider the following reduction potentials: Cu2+ + 2e– Cu E° = 0.339 V Pb2+ + 2e– Pb E° = –0.130 V For a galvanic cell employi
slega [8]

Answer:

Approximately \rm 90\; kJ.

Explanation:

Cathode is where reduction takes place and anode is where oxidation takes place. The potential of a electrochemical reaction (E^{\circ}(\text{cell})) is equal to

E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) = E^{\circ}(\text{cathode}) - E^{\circ}(\text{anode}).

There are two half-reactions in this question. \rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu and \rm Pb^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Pb. Either could be the cathode (while the other acts as the anode.) However, for the reaction to be spontaneous, the value of E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) should be positive.

In this case, E^{\circ}(\text{cell}) is positive only if \rm Cu^{2+} + 2\,e^{-} \rightleftharpoons Cu is the reaction takes place at the cathode. The net reaction would be

\rm Cu^{2+} + Pb \to Cu + Pb^{2+}.

Its cell potential would be equal to 0.339 - (-0.130) = \rm 0.469\; V.

The maximum amount of electrical energy possible (under standard conditions) is equal to the free energy of this reaction:

\Delta G^{\circ} = n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell}),

where

  • n is the number moles of electrons transferred for each mole of the reaction. In this case the value of n is 2 as in the half-reactions.
  • F is Faraday's Constant (approximately 96485.33212\; \rm C \cdot mol^{-1}.)

\begin{aligned}\Delta G^{\circ} &= n \cdot F \cdot E^{\circ} (\text{cell})\cr &= 2\times 96485.33212 \times (0.339 - (-0.130)) \cr &\approx 9.0 \times 10^{4} \; \rm J \cr &= 90\; \rm kJ\end{aligned}.

How does the distance traveled by the coin compare to its displacement after ten flips?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

To calculate displacement, simply draw a vector from your starting point to your final position and solve for the length of this line. If your starting and ending position are the same, like your circular 5K route, then your displacement is 0. In physics, displacement is represented by Δs.
