Which of the following statements related to energy conversion and generation of x-rays is correct?

Biology

Answer:

The answer is D.

Explanation:

The way x-rays are produced is as follows; using a vacuum environment in a tube, the cathode is heated to a degree where it releases electrons, then these electrons collide with the anode releasing energy that create the x-rays.

All of the options are correct. Although the electron most likely won't stop, it will slow down and change direction after the collision. The law of conservation of energy is also applied in this situation, meaning that the kinetic energy of the electron released by the cathode will transfer to the anode to produce the x-rays. Most of the energy after the collision is converted into heat, which is why the metal used as the anode can heat up to 2000 degrees celcius.

I hope this answer helps.

Answer:B

Explanation:

B. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can be transformed from one form to the other. In the transfer of energy from one form to the other, energy transferred is not 100% efficient.

A scientist is studying a biome that experiences large seasonal fluctuations in both temperature and precipitation patterns. Wha
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- Generalist species would be abundant in the biome.

Explanation:

A generalist species is the species that can survive in the wide variety of different resources and the environmental conditions.

The generalist species would be found in the higher number in biome which experiences large seasonal fluctuations with varying precipitation and temperature. The generalist species would be abundant because they can survive the changing environment, change in the conditions and wide range of food.

Thus, the Generalist species is the correct answer.

What happens to an animal cell in a hypertonic solution?
jarptica [38.1K]

<span>The answer is that cell will shrink.</span>

<span>If you put an animal cell in a hypertonic solution means that concentration of the solutes is greater outside the cell, in the solution, than in the cell. Consequently,</span> the water concentration of the cell's cytoplasm is higher than that of the hypertonic solution. Since the aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the cell, the water will exit the cell. The cell will lose water and, consequently, will shrink in size.

Why do you suppose the united states still uses the english system for everyday measurements while almost every other country us
Alchen [17]
Answer:
Because the English measurement system has been in use for a very long time, it will be costly and time consuming to change from the English to SI units. Many technological measurements, products, and tools were developed in English units.

The cost of converting all measurements to SI units will be costly and will require a long period of time. Conversions between the English and the SI system of units appear to be more cost-effective than hardware changes.

Example:
It will be costly to convert designs for bridges, tunnels, locomotives, automobiles, and other hardware to the SI system. Although new designs are being performed in SI units, much useful hardware based on English units still remain.

Eventually, it is likely that complete conversion from English to SI units will happen, albeit slowly.
