I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. When calculating the power bill, power companies use kilowatt-hours. This unit is a derived unit of energy equal to 3.6 MJ. If energy is being transmitted or used at a constant rate (power) over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt-hours is the product of the power in kilowatts and the time.
Hello! The nontoxic, nonflammable chemicals containing atoms of carbon, chlorine, and fluorine that have created a hole in the ozone layer are the Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
These are compounds developed and improved by Thomas Midgley in the late 1920s. They were used as refrigerants and aerosol propellants.
These compounds created a hole in the ozone layer by the following reactions:
CCl₃F → CCl₂F· + Cl· (In the presence of light. Radical Reaction)
Cl· + O₃ → ClO + O₂
ClO + O₃ → Cl· + O₂
The last 2 reactions can repeat in a radical mechanism and explain why these compounds are so harmful to the ozone layer.
<span>A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor
that has a very small capacitance.
The capacitance of the series combination is slightly smaller than the
capacitance of the small capacitor. (choice-C)
The capacitance of a series combination is
1 / (1/A + 1/B + 1/C + 1/D + .....) .
If you wisk, fold, knead, and mash that expression for a while,
you find that for only two capacitors in series, (or 2 resistors or
two inductors in parallel), the combination is
(product of the 2 individuals) / (sum of the individuals) .
In this problem, we have a humongous one and a tiny one.
Let's call them 1000 and 1 .
Then the series combination is
(1000 x 1) / (1000 + 1)
= (1000) / (1001)
= 0.999 000 999 . . .
which is smaller than the smaller individual.
It'll always be that way. </span>
Answer:
Approximately
.
Explanation:
The refractive index of the air
is approximately
.
Let
denote the refractive index of the glass block, and let
denote the angle of refraction in the glass. Let
denote the angle at which the light enters the glass block from the air.
By Snell's Law:
.
Rearrange the Snell's Law equation to obtain:
.
Hence:
.
In other words, the angle of refraction in the glass would be approximately
.
