What can you use to determine whether the SATA port no which you are connecting the drive will also run at 6.0Gbps?
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The answer is "use manual motherboard".

Explanation:

The motherboard is also known as the mainboard, it an electronic circuit board, that can connect with the CPU, RAM, and other networking equipment parts. It is also is known as a chipset, that differ widely in style, context, power source, height and performance (Form Factor).

All the data of the computer is stored memory, which checks into the motherboard, that the SATA port which you are connected to is still going to run at 6.0Gbps or not.

Un tubo metálico tiene 100 metros de longitud cuando está a 0 oC y 100,13 metros cuando se calienta hasta 100 oC. ¿Cuál es el co
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

 α= 1.3 10-5 ºC⁻¹

Explanation:

La dilatación termica de los cuerpos esta dada por la relación  

      ΔL = L₀ α ( T -T₀)

en este caso nos piden el coeficiente de dilatación térmica

     α =DL/L₀ DT

calculemos

      α = (  100,13 -100)/[100 (100 – 0)]

       α = 1,3 10-5 ºC⁻¹

Traduction

The thermal expansion of bodies is given by the relationship

       ΔL = L₀ α (T -T₀)

in this case they ask us for the coefficient of thermal expansion

        α = ΔL / L₀ ΔT

    let's calculate

        α = (100,13 -100) / [100 (100 - 0)]

        α= 1.3 10-5 ºC⁻¹

What is meant by a colored shadow? If "shadow" means
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Explanation:

Red, green, and blue are therefore called additive primaries of light. ... When you block two lights, you see a shadow of the third color—for example, block the red and green lights and you get a blue shadow. If you block only one of the lights, you get a shadow whose color is a mixture of the other two.

First, your definition of a shadow is incorrect. A shadow is an area that receives less light than its surroundings because a specific source of light is blocked by whatever is "casting" the shadow. Your example of being outside reveals this. The sky and everything around you in the environment (unless you are surrounded by pitch black buildings) is sending more than enough light into your shadow, to reveal the pen to your eyes. The sky itself diffuses the sunlight everywhere, and the clouds reflect plenty of light when they are not directly in front of the Sun.

If you are indoors and have two light bulbs, you can throw two shadows at the same time, possibly of different darknesses, depending on the brightness of the light bulbs.

It can take a lot of work to get a room pitch black. One little hole or crack in some heavy window curtains can be enough to illuminate the room. There are very few perfectly dark shadows.
