During which stage does the birth rate begin to decline?
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

During stage 3 - late expanding (of demogrpahic transition model)

Explanation:

During stage 3, birth rate begins to decline as infant mortality is lower and women have more access to education, family planning, and contraceptives.  Children are not needed as "free labor" as they might have been in earlier stages.

When a solid is in the process of changing into a liquid and extra energy is added to the system, the temperature does not chang
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

D. The temperature does not change during a phase change because the average kinetic energy does not change. Therefore, the potential energy in the bonds between molecules must change.

Explanation:

When there is a change of state (for example, from solid into a liquid, as in this example), when energy is added to the system, the temperature of the substance does not change.

The reason for this is that the energy supplied is no longer used to increase the average kinetic energy of the particle, but instead it is used to break the bonds between the different particles/molecules. For instance, since in this case the substance is changing from solid to liquid, all the energy supplied during the phase change is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the solid: when the process is done, all the molecules will be free to slide past each other, and the substance has turned completely into a liquid.

The bonds between molecules store potential energy: therefore, this means that the energy supplied during the phase change is not used to change the kinetic energy, but to change the potential energy in the bonds between the molecules.

A circular dartboard has a radius of 2 meters and a red circle in the center. Assume you hit the target at a random point. For w
Sati [7]

Answer:

1.549 m

Explanation:

Given:

The radius of the circular board, r = 2 m

The probability of hitting the red is given as 0.6

Now, this probability of hitting the red can be conclude as

0.6 = (Area of red)/ (Total area of the board)

Total area of the board = πr² = π × 2²

let the radius of the red area be R

thus, area of red circle, = πR²

on substituting the value of the area, we have

0.6 = (πR²)/ (π × 2²)

or

R² = 2.4

or

R = 1.549 m

Thus, the radius of the red circle is 1.549 m
