Which solution causes cells to shrink

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: Hypertonic

Explain: a hypertonic solution has increased solute and a net movement of water outside causing the cell to shrink. A hypotonic has decreased solute concentration, and a net movement of water inside the cell, causing swelling or breakage.

Oliver is designing a new children’s slide to increase the speed at which a child can descend. His first design involved steel b

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A) Steel becomes too hot in the Sun and can burn the children

Explanation:

The properties of steel includes;

Low specific heat capacity, high thermal and electrical toughness, high hardness, high tensile strength, high yield strength, appreciable elongation, high fatigue strength, can easily corrode, high malleability and ability to creep

Therefore, due to the low specific heat capacity, which is 0.511 J/(g·°C) and high conductivity of steel which is about 32 W/(m·k), the temperature of the steel can rapidly rise and the hot steel surface can readily conduct the heat, (due to the temperature difference) to other bodies that come in contact

A private plane pilot is what kind of individual transportation position? professional level mid-level entry-level EPA-certified

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

A private plane pilot is a mid-level position.

Explanation:

The six pilot certifications in the US are as follows:

Sport Pilot
Recreational Pilot
Private Plane Pilot
Commercial Plane Pilot
Flight Instructor
Airline Transport Pilot

From this listing, it is evident that the Private Plane Pilot is in the mid of the line so it is a mid-level position.

A 1-mm-diameter methanol droplet takes 1 min for complete evaporation at atmospheric condition. What will be the time taken for

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Time taken by the $1\mu m$ diameter droplet is 60 ns

Solution:

As per the question:

Diameter of the droplet, d = 1 mm = 0.001 m

Radius of the droplet, R = 0.0005 m

Time taken for complete evaporation, t = 1 min = 60 s

Diameter of the smaller droplet, d' = $1\times 10^{- 6} m$

Diameter of the smaller droplet, R' = $0.5\times 10^{- 6} m$

Now,

Volume of the droplet, V = $\frac{4}{3}\pi R^{3}$

Volume of the smaller droplet, V' = $\frac{4}{3}\pi R'^{3}$

Volume of the droplet ∝ Time taken for complete evaporation

Thus

$\frac{V}{V'} = \frac{t}{t'}$

where

t' = taken taken by smaller droplet

$\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^{3}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R'^{3}} = \frac{60}{t'}$

$\frac{\frac{4}{3}\pi 0.0005^{3}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi (0.5\times 10^{- 6})^{3}} = \frac{60}{t'}$

t' = $60\times 10^{- 9} s = 60 ns$

There are three options for heating a particular house: a. Gas: $1.33/therm where 1 therm=105,500 kJ b. Electric Resistance: $0.

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Option ‘a’ is the cheapest for this house.

Explanation:

Cheapest method of heating must have least cost per kj of energy. So, convert all the energy in the same unit (say kj) and take select the cheapest method to heat the house.

Given:

Three methods are given to heat a particular house are as follows:

Method (a)

Through Gas, this gives energy of amount $1.33/therm.

Method (b)

Through electric resistance, this gives energy of amount $0.12/KWh.

Method (c)

Through oil, this gives energy of amount $2.30/gallon.

Calculation:

Step1

Change therm to kj in method ‘a’ as follows:

$C_{1}=\frac{\$ 1.33}{therm}\times(\frac{1therm}{105500kj})$
