Answer:

b. the porous and permeable, saturated cone of depression in an aquitard.

Explanation:

An aquifer is an underground layer of water, surrounded by a porous, and saturated layer of water bearing rock. The aquifer is lined by a layer of bed of low permeability along its length. This layer is called an aquitard, and it usually forms a depression.

You have a wire that is 23 cm long. You wish to cut it into two pieces. One piece will be bent into the shape of a square. The o
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

In explanation you see the answer but it I see it send it  different  so I just added a file so you can see clearly the way how this exercise works. Please, see the file attached

Explanation:

Let x = circumference of the circle

then

(53-x) = the perimeter of the square

and \frac{53-\times}{4} = the side of the square

and

\left(\frac{53-\times}{4}\right)^2 = the area of the square

:

Find the area of the circle using the circumference

find the radius (r)

2*pi*r = x

r = \frac{\times}{2*\mathbit{\pi}}

r = \frac{\times}{6.28}

Find the area of the circle

\mathbit{A}=\pi r^2

Replace r with \frac{\times}{6.28}

A = π * \left(\frac{\times}{6.28}\right)^2=  * \left(\frac{\times^2}{39.48}\right)      

cancel pi into 39.48

A =  \left(\frac{\times^2}{12.566}\right)

Total area of circle and square

A =  \left(\frac{\times^2}{12.566}\right)+\left(\frac{53-\times}{4}\right)^2  = \left(\frac{\times^2}{12.566}\right)  + \left(\frac{{2809-106\times+\times}^2}{16}\right)

:

convert these fractions to decimal coefficients

A(x) = .0796x^2 + .0625x^2 - 6.625x + 175.5625

A(x) = .1421x^2 - 6.625x + 175.5625

:

Find the axis of symmetry of this quadratic equation (min area)

x =   \frac{-\left(-6.625\right)}{2*.1421}

x =   \frac{6.625}{.2842}

x = 23.31 cm is the circumference when they have min area

Which of the following is NOT true about Guinea worm disease?
densk [106]

Answer:

The statement that is NOT true about Guinea worm disease is It is a noncommunicable disease

Explanation:

The Guinea worm disease is a disease that infects people who drink water contaminated with copepods carrying worm larvae. It can be prevented by filtering drinking water and stopping infected people from entering shared water sources.  People with blisters and visible worm wounds/ infections could potentially release the female worm or a liquid which in contact with water release more larvae.

Which hypothesis mentioned in the book proposes that equatorial regions are poor because tropical diseases have consequences for
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The answer is the Geography Hypothesis.

Explanation:

The geography hypothesis holds that the differences in prosperity that are found around the world are due in large part to forces of nature, like the differences in geography, climate, and ecology that are evident in different regions of the world. The geography hypothesis emphasizes how the natural environment can explain why some nations are more prosperous than others. In contrast, the institutions hypothesis emphasizes the influences that are made and caused by humans. Human poverty is largely man-made in the institutions view.

Describe and explain the physical and/or chemical methods used to refine the coal
Leni [432]
<span>A method of processing coal to remove contaminants by mixing coal in a solution of potassium permanganate in a selected concentration range, rinsing the coal, mixing the coal in a solution of ammonia hydroxide in a selected concentration range to cause the solution to be brought into contact with the surfaces and pores of the coal, discharging the processed coal from the second reaction vessel, monitoring the process to detect when the concentration of aqueous ammonia in the second reaction vessel has fallen below the selected range, and feeding aqueous ammonia solution with an ammonia concentration in or above the selected range to the second reaction vessel to return the solution to within the selected range.</span>
