Explanation:

A nichrome (ρ = 100x10-8 Ωm) wire has a diameter of 0.40 mm. ... A power line with a resistance of 2 ohms has a current of 80 A in it

1/8 Watt 50 kΩ resistor has 70 V applied.

Car A is traveling west at 40 mi/h and car B is traveling north at 40 mi/h. Both are headed for the intersection of the two road

Gwar [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

$\frac{dx}{dt}$ = -40 mi/h, $\frac{dx}{dt}$ = -40 mi/h

The negative sign indicates that x and y are decreasing.

We have to find $\frac{dz}{dt}$ . Equation for the given variables according to the Pythagoras theorem is as follows.

$z^{2} = x^{2} + y^{2}$

Now, we will differentiate each side w.r.t 't' as follows.

$2z\frac{dz}{dt} = 2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt}$

or, $\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})$

So, when x = 4 mi, and y = 3 mi then z = 5 mi.

As, $\frac{dz}{dt} = \frac{1}{z}(x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt})$

= $\frac{1}{5}(4 \times (-40) + 3 \times (-40))$

= $\frac{-140 - 120}{5}$

= 52

Thus, we can conclude that the cars are approaching at a rate of 52 mi/h.

12. The bond formed when two atoms share a pair of electrons is called a

givi [52]

Answer:A covalent bond, also called a molecular bond, is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.

Calculate the sample standard deviation and sample variance for the following frequency distribution of hourly wages for a sampl

ollegr [7]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) standard deviation = σ = 4.9996

(b) variance = σ² = 24.996

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

Given frequency table (find attached as Table 1);

(a) To find the sample standard deviation and sample variance, follow these steps;

i. Calculate the mid-point c for each group by using the mid-point formula;

c = (lower bound + upper bound) / 2

=> c = (6.51 + 8.50) / 2 = 7.505

=> c = (8.51 + 10.50) / 2 = 9.505

=> c = (10.51 + 12.50) / 2 = 11.505

=> c = (12.51 + 14.50) / 2 = 13.505

=> c = (14.51 + 16.50) / 2 = 15.505

So the new table becomes (find attached as Table 2);

ii. Calculate the total number of samples (n) which is the sum of all the frequencies.

n = 50+18+42+20+46

n = 176

iii. Calculate the mean (M)

This is done by first multiplying the midpoints by the corresponding frequencies and then dividing the result by the total number of samples (n).

M = [(7.505 x 50) + (9.505 x 18) + (11.505 x 42) + (13.505 x 20) + (15.505 x 46)] / 176

M = [375.25 + 171.09 + 483.21 + 270.1 + 713.23] / 176

M = [2012.88] / 176

M = 11.44

iv. Find the variance (σ²);

The variance is calculated using the following formula

σ² = [Σ(f x c²) - (n x M²)] / (n - 1) ------------(i)

Where;

f = frequency of each boundary data point

=> Let's first calculate Σ(f x c²).

This is done by finding the sum of the product of the frequency (f) of each boundary point and the square of their corresponding mid-points(c)

Σ(f x c²) = [(50 x 7.505²) + (18 x 9.505²) + (42 x 11.505²) + (20 x 13.505²) + (46 x 15.505²)]

Σ(f x c²) = [(2816.25125) + (1626.21045) + (5559.33105) + (3647.7005) + (11058.63115)]

Σ(f x c²) = 24708.1244

=> Now calculate (n x M²)

n x M² = 176 x 11.44²

n x M² = 23033.7536

=> Now substitute these values into equation (i) to calculate the variance

σ² = [Σ(f x c²) - (n x M²)] / (n - 1)

σ² = [24708.1244 - 23033.7536] / (176 - 1)

σ² = [4374.3708] / (175)

σ² = 24.996

Therefore, the variance is 24.996

v. Find the standard deviation (σ)

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance. i.e

σ = √σ²

σ = √24.996

σ = 4.9996

Therefore, the standard deviation is 4.9996

What are the three rules for writing the electron configuration of elements

astraxan [27]

Answer:

The aufbau principle

The Pauli exclusion principle

Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity

Explanation:

The aufbau principle:

The fundamental electronic configuration is achieved by placing the electrons one by one in the different orbitals available for the atom, which are arranged in increasing order of energy.

The Pauli exclusion principle:

Two electrons of the same atom cannot have their four equal quantum numbers. Because each orbital is defined by the quantum numbers n, l, and m, there are only two possibilities ms = -1/2 and ms = +1/2, which physically reflects that each orbital can contain a maximum of two electrons, having opposite spins

Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity:

This rule says that when there are several electrons occupying degenerate orbitals, of equal energy, they will do so in different orbitals and with parallel spins, whenever this is possible. Because electrons repel each other, the minimum energy configuration is one that has electrons as far away as possible from each other, and that is why they are distributed separately before two electrons occupy the same orbital.
