Answer:

copper wire

Explanation:

First, and foremost, copper is a good conductor because it is the least expensive of all conductors. What actually makes it a good conductor, however, is how some of its electrons are easily detached. When the outer electrons detach, it allows for a chain reaction of electrons.

The chain reaction is created by one electron moving through a circuit, which in turn makes each electron, in the circuit detach (i.e. chain reaction). As each electron is detached, electricity is allowed to function. Since copper’s electrons detach easier than most other conductors, electricity easily functions through a copper circuit. This is what really makes copper such a good conductor.

How many kilometers above sea level would this mountain reach, and what would the approximate temperature be at this altitude?

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

It would be about 9 kilometers above sea level, and you can expect the temperature to be cold. (see explanation)

Explanation:

If there's no snow or rain and you’re not in a cloud, then the temperature decreases by about 5.4°F for every 1,000 feet up you go in elevation. That is 9.8°C per 1,000 meters. However, if you’re in a cloud, or it is snowing/raining, the temperature decreases by about 3.3°F for every 1,000 feet up you go in elevation. Thus meaning it’s a change of 6°C per 1,000 meters.

In an experiment, three plants of the same species were grown in each of six identical pots. The heights of the plants were meas

Sonja [21]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

1. The data from the experiment shows that as the percentage of salt in the solution used to water the plants increased, the growth rate of the plants decreased. As the percentage increased from A to D, the change between the average initial and the final heights decreased, meaning that an increase in the percentage of the salt in the solution used to water the plants had a negative impact on the growth rates of the plants.

2. Due to the solutions used to water the plants in groups E and F being more concentrated (hypertonic) to that of the cell sap of the plant, water molecules diffused out of the cell sap to the ambient solution. As time goes by, the plants lose too much water, become wilted, and died off eventually. Instead of water molecules to keep diffusing into the plants in order for them to grow, the reverse was occurring and this led to their death.

In a right triangle, the measures of the two smaller angles are 3x+6 and 2x-1 . Find the measure of the smallest angle in the tr

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

In a right triangle the biggest angle is 90°.

Then the two smaller angles sum up 180° - 90° = 90 °.

Now you can use this equation: 3x + 6 + 2x - 1 = 90 and solve for x:

5 x + 5 = 90

5x = 85

x = 85/5

x = 17

Then, the smallest angle is 2(17) - 1 = 33°
