Blank**** Is the inability of an individual or a society to achieve a minimum standard of living??? 20 points answer ASAP

1 answer:

4 0

When a society can achieve a minimum standard of living that is the end of that society. It will be replaced by one which does.

Of course, further defining achieving a minimum standard of living to 1) every individual or 2) the average of all people will mean that some such societies can carry on.

If an individual cannot support a minimum standard of living in a society in which most do, then the cause could be the individual or the societal structure (built-in inequality unrelated to individual abilities).

Some individuals, due to genetics, illnesses, or accidents can not achieve a minimum standard of living on their own. Whether or not the society provides it for them is a measure of the society and the ethics of its citizenry.

What causes the mechanical advantage of the inclined plane to be less than that of the lever? 30 points !!!

gayaneshka [121]

Moving an object up an inclined plane requires lessforce than lifting it straight up, at a cost of an increase in the distance moved. The mechanical advantageof an inclined plane, the factor by which the force is reduced, is equal to the ratio of the length of the sloped surface to the height it spans.

What should a sailboat operator do when approaching a PWC head-on

nekit [7.7K]

In accordance with the International Regulation for the prevention of collisions at sea:

1.- A sailing boat has a passing preference over a motorized boat, except when the motor boat is limited by its draft.

2.- The sailboat must maintain its course and speed.

3.- If it is evident that the PWC does not respond, the sailboat must sound the warning signal, and change its course to starboard.

4.- All actions must be taken as soon as possible.

5.- If a sailboat is using its engine, the situation changes, and in that case, both ships must alter to starboard.

There are 8.8 liters of gas in a piston at a pressure of 1.75 atmospheres. The temperature remains constant, and the gas is comp

saveliy_v [14]

The new pressure P2 is 2.48 atmosphere.

Explanation:

Here, the one of the product of pressure and volume is equal to the products of pressure and volume of other.

By using Boyles's law,

pressure is inversely proportional to volume,

P1 V1 = P2 V2

where P1, V1 represents the first pressure and volume,

P2, V2 represents the second pressure and volume

P2 = (P1 V1) / V2

= (1.75 $\times$ 8.8) / 6.2

P2 = 2.48 atmosphere.

By what factor does the peak frequency change if the celsius temperature of an object is doubled from 20.0 ∘c to 40.0 ∘c?

mart [117]

Answer:

it increases by a factor 1.07

Explanation:

The peak wavelength of an object is given by Wien's displacement law:

$\lambda=\frac{b}{T}$ (1)

where

b is the Wien's displacement constant

T is the temperature (in Kelvins) of the object

given the relationship between frequency and wavelength of an electromagnetic wave:

$f=\frac{c}{\lambda}$

where c is the speed of light, we can rewrite (1) as

$\frac{c}{f}=\frac{b}{T}\\f=\frac{Tc}{b}$

So the peak frequency is directly proportional to the temperature in Kelvin.

In this problem, the temperature of the object changes from

$T_1 = 20.0^{\circ}+273=293 K$

$T_2 = 40.0^{\circ}+273 = 313 K$

so the peak frequency changes by a factor

$\frac{f_2}{f_1} \propto \frac{T_2}{T_1}=\frac{313 K}{293 K}=1.07$

Before radiant energy can be converted to thermal energy,it must be changed to what

vivado [14]

Answer:

The radiant energy is converted into electronic energy before it is transformed into thermal energy.

Explanation:

Radiant energy occurs in the form of "Electromagnetic radiation" and it can pass through all types of matter travelling through the universe. There are numerous advantages of radiant energy. When the radiant energy is incident upon a substance the energy from the sun light excites the electrons in the atom. This sets the atoms in vibrational motion.

Thermal energy is the kinetic energy of moving particles. The thermal energy increases with increase in movement and number of moving particles. When the atoms make a transition from electronically excited state to vibrational state, the energy transfer increases the temperature of the substance. This is felt as thermal energy. Hence, the radiant energy is changed into "electronic energy" before it is converted into "thermal energy".
