Answer:
It is a little bit trivial:
As we know:
Energy sink: is anything that uses energy.
Energy source: is anything that produces energy.
How the caol deposits can be energy sinks? well, you want to extract the coal from those deposits, and to do it, you need to "use energy" (the type of energy can depend on the extraction method, for example, if you use a pickaxe to extract the coal, you are using mechanical energy)
These coals are potential energy sources because coal is an energy source, potential means that, given some circumstances, something can transform into other things.
So potential energy source in this situation means that those coal deposits can be potential energy when we extract the coal and use it as an energy source.
Answer:
23,760.
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the monthly salary x 12 since there are 12 months
Since there is a 5 to the right of the decimal, you will round the number immediately to the left of the decimal up. So the nearest whole number would be 71.
Answer:
About 99.7% of the IQ scores would be between 57 and 141.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule about a bell-shaped curve states that :
- 68% of the data lies within one standard deviation of the mean (both left-side and right-side)
- 95% of the data lies within two standard deviations of the mean (both left-side and right-side)
- 99.7% of the data lies within three standard deviations of the mean (both left-side and right-side)
Now, we need to find what percentage of IQ scores lies between 57 and 141 : Mean = 99 and standard deviation = 14
141 – 99 = 42
= 3 × 14
Thus, 141 is 3 standard deviations to the right of the mean.
99 – 57 = 42
= 3 × 14
Thus, 57 is 3 standard deviations to the left of the mean.
Since 57 to 141 is within 3 standard deviations of the mean, and according to empirical formula stated above : about 99.7% of the IQ scores would be between 57 and 141.
