The local high school is installing new bleachers at the stadium and must also add handrails to meet code. The students know the

bleachers are 8 m tall, and they measure the depth of the bleachers at 7 m. How long must the handrails be to go along the bleachers from bottom to top? Use a component table to solve.

Answer:

The handrails must be approximately 10.63 meters long

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The height of the bleachers, h = 8 m

The depth of the bleachers, d = 7 m

The length of the hand rails to go along the bleachers from bottom to top is given by Pythagoras' Theorem as follows;

The length of the hand rail = √(d² + h²)

∴ The length of the hand rail = √(7² + 8²) = √113 ≈ 10.63

In order for the handrails to go along the bleachers from top to bottom, they must be approximately 10.63 meters long.

Which of ONE of the following four elements has the most metallic properties?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

12 (Magnesium- Mg)

Explanation:

Looking at the four numbers, we have:

Magnesium, Silicon, Sulfur, and Chlorine.

We can eliminate two of the answers immediately just by looking at the periodic table.

Sulfur and Chlorine are on the nonmetal side of the periodic table. So that's <em>definitely</em> not it. That leaves Magnesium and Silicon.

Silicon is a Metalloid. Magnesium is an Alkaline earth Metal.

Metaloids are elements that have a mix of both<em> metal</em> and<em> nonmetal </em>properties (luster, how it feels, etc.). Since it's a MIX and Magnesium is just straight METAL-

We can say Magnesium has the most metallic properties.

hope this helps!!

Speed of light 

According to Einstein, the speed of light is constant in all points of reference.  In addition, he pointed out the speed of light is the maximum speed known since in practice one can never catch up with the beam of light. This is explained by his theory of relativity.

A transformer has two sets of coils, the primary with N1 = 160 turns and the secondary with N2 = 1400 turns. The input rms volta
vovikov84 [41]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the voltage in a coil, through the percentage relationship that exists between the voltage and the number of turns it has.

So things our data are given by

N_1 = 160

N_2 = 1400

\Delta V_{1rms} = 62V

PART A) Since it is a system in equilibrium the relationship between the two transformers would be given by

\frac{N_1}{N_2} = \frac{\Delta V_{1rms}}{\Delta V_{2rms}}

So the voltage for transformer 2 would be given by,

\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{N_2}{N_1} \Delta V_{1rms}

PART B) To express the number value we proceed to replace with the previously given values, that is to say

\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{N_1}{N_2} \Delta V_{1rms}

\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{1400}{160} 62V

\Delta V_{2rms} = 1446.66V

The table below shows the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere for a period of 50 years.
yan [13]

Answer: The level of CO2 has risen.

Explanation:

From the table shown, we can see that the quantity of CO₂ in the atmosphere has steadily risen since the year 1960 going from 317 CO₂PPM in that year to 390 CO₂PPM in 2010.

This is a cause for alarm because with so much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, there will be an even greater greenhouse effect that will contribute to global warming.
