Light-rail systems have been tried all over the country, and they've failed. Although the people who support them have noble int

entions, sadly, the system the city proposes is doomed to fail as well. People simply enjoy their cars too much to endure any inconvenience for the sake of the environment. And I don't blame them. As the owner of Jake's Used Cars and Trucks, I have seen the joy and freedom car ownership brings people. Americans will never abandon that feeling for the sake of being slightly better citizens. I believe it is far more responsible to purchase a high-quality car with good fuel efficiency. Building an entire light-rail system from the ground up, as the city proposes to do, will be more wasteful in the end if nobody uses it — not to mention that it will take years to build and cost taxpayers millions of dollars. I encourage all city residents to vote against the light-rail system on May 1. Which statement best describes the author's point of view? A. The author thinks Americans should be more environmentally responsible. B. The author wants citizens to visit his car dealership. C. The author is opposed to the light-rail project. D. The author would like the city to implement its project successfully.

Citizens should vote against the proposed claim.

ANSWER: C. The author is opposed to the light-rail project.

EXPLANATION: The author understands the mentality and the sentiments of Americans. He knows the fact very well that people would never compromise their comfort, joy and freedom to become a good citizen. The author thinks they can be rather advised to buy high quality cars with good fuel efficiency than using the light rail system. So, to avoid taxpayers' millions of dollars, he wants the citizens to vote against it.

How fast does a 2 MeV fission neutron travel through a reactor core?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

The answer is 1.956 \times 10^7\ m/s

Explanation:

The amount of energy is not enough to apply the relativistic formula of energy E = mc^2, so the definition of energy in this case is

E = \frac{1}{2}m v^2.

From the last equation,

v= \sqrt{2E/m}

where

E = 2 MeV = 3.204 \times 10^{-13} J

and the mass of the neutron is

m = 1.675\times 10^{-27}\ Kg.

Then

v = 1.956 \times 10^7\ m/s

the equivalent of 0.065 the speed of light.

The same amount of substance was added to four beakers of water. The treatments were placed in the chart.
vfiekz [6]

Answer: Solution W and Y solution have more solubility than X and Z

Solutions are homogeneous mixtures of two or more components. By uniform mix we mean that its structure and properties are the same in the whole mix. Generally, the component which is present in the largest quantity is known as solvent. Solvent determines the physical condition in which the solution exists. In addition to the solvent, one or more component present in the solution is called solutes. In this unit we will only consider binary solutions (i.e., with two components)

The structure of the solution can be described by expressing its concentration. The latter can either be expressed qualitatively or quantitatively. For example, in qualitatively we can say that the solution is diluted (i.e., relatively small amounts of solubility) or it is concentrated (i.e., relatively rarely sighs). But in real life such details may be very confusing and thus require a quantitative description of the solution. There are several ways that we can quantitatively describe the concentration of solutions. (i) Mass Percentage (W / W): The mass percentage of a component of the solution is defined as: mass of the component = mass of the component in the solution = 100 Total mass of the solution .For example, if by mass A solution is described by 10% glucose in water, it means that 10 grams of glucose dissolved in 90 grams of water, resulting in 100 grams of solution. The concentration described by a large percentage of the population is usually used in industrial chemical applications. For example, the commercial bleaching solution contains 3.62 mass percentages of sodium hypochlorite in water. (ii) Volume Percentage (V / V): Volume Percentage is defined as: Total Volume of Component Volume 100 (component) Volume% of Component

3. An athlete makes a long jump and follows a projectile motion. Air resistance is negligible. Which one of the following statem
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

The motion under the influence of gravity is called projectile motion.

The acceleration due to gravity is constant through out the motion and it is always acting downwards.

When an athlete jumps and follow the projectile path, it always have the same horizontal velocity as there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

Also he has the vertical acceleration constant which is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and acts towards the center of earth.  

Option (b) is correct.
