Answer:

c. Joints allow the roadway to expand and contract as cars put force on the bridge

Explanation:

Joints in the roadways of bridges allows for the roadway to expand and contract as cars put force on the bridge.

The force on the bridge and the ambient temperature causes expansion of the materials used in making the bridge.

Joints allows and accommodate the expansion.
As the force is removed and temperature reduces, the road also contracts.

1. 2+0.5+2.5= 3. 2km/hr average

2. 14-6=4seconds. 8m/s in 4s = 2m/s acceleration

3. 15m/s divided by 2.5 = 6m/s acceleration

A 10-turn coil of wire having a diameter of 1.0 cm and a resistance of 0.50 Ω is in a 1.0 mT magnetic field, with the coil orien

n200080 [17]

Answer:

The voltage across the capacitor is 1.57 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns = 10

Diameter = 1.0 cm

Resistance = 0.50 Ω

Capacitor = 1.0μ F

Magnetic field = 1.0 mT

We need to calculate the flux

Using formula of flux

$\phi=NBA$

Put the value into the formula

$\phi=10\times1.0\times10^{-3}\times\pi\times(0.5\times10^{-2})^2$

$\phi=7.85\times10^{-7}\ Tm^2$

We need to calculate the induced emf

Using formula of induced emf

$\epsilon=\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}$

Put the value into the formula

$\epsilon=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{dt}$

Put the value of emf from ohm's law

$\epsilon =IR$

$IR=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{dt}$

$Idt=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{R}$

$Idt=\dfrac{7.85\times10^{-7}}{0.50}$

$Idt=0.00000157=1.57\times10^{-6}\ C$

We know that,

$Idt=dq$

$dq=1.57\times10^{-6}\ C$

We need to calculate the voltage across the capacitor

Using formula of charge

$dq=C dV$

$dV=\dfrac{dq}{C}$

Put the value into the formula

$dV=\dfrac{1.57\times10^{-6}}{1.0\times10^{-6}}$

$dV=1.57\ V$

Hence, The voltage across the capacitor is 1.57 V.

Explain each of the following phenomena and how they extend our understanding of genetics from the work done by Gregor Mendel an

Korolek [52]

Answer:

Incomplete Dominance: In this case, the 3rd different phenotype is created by the heterozygous(CwCr) (for example, pink)

Co-Dominance: the heterozygous is observed to show both the homozygous conditions (for example the blood type iAiB shows both A and B carbohydrates)

Multiple alleles: This is when a gene has over 2 alleles (i.e. blood has ia ib i)

Polygenic inheritance: This is when over two different gene leads to the expression of a trait.

Pleiotropy: This is the when a gene shows several effects on an organism.

Epistasis: This is when more than one gene have strong control on the expression of a trait (for example, E/e allele creates pigments)

Sex-linkage: This refers to the genes found in sex chromosomes

Gene Linkage: These are the genes situated in a similar chromosome.
