Answer: 25 Ohms
Explanation:
From this question, the following parameters are given:
Voltage V = 1.5 v
Current I = 0.03A
From Ohm's law;
V = IR
Where R = resultant resistance of the two resistors.
Substitute V and I into the formula and make resultant R the subject of formula.
1.5 = 0.03 × R
R = 1.5/0.03
R = 50 Ohms
From the question, it is given that Thr two equal resistors are connected in series.
R = R1 + R2
But R1 = R2
50 = 2R1
R1 = 50/2
R1 = 25
R1 = R2 = 25 Ohms
Therefore, the resistors must each have a value of 25 Ohms
Answer:
Acid mine drainage is dissolved toxic materials wash from mines into nearby lakes and streams.
Explanation:
Acid mine drainage is the flow of acidic water with pH typically between 2 and 4, and high concentrations of other dissolved toxic materials from mines into nearby lakes and streams. It mainly occurs during metal sulfide mining, when the metal sulfide ore such as pyrite (FeS2) is exposed to water and oxygen from air to produce soluble iron and sulfuric acid.
Microorganisms, especially acidophile bacteria like Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans grow by pyrite oxidation, i.e., oxidizing the Fe²⁺ in pyrite to Fe³⁺, which again react with pyrite and water to produce sulfuric acid. Then the acidic water flows into nearby water sources and reduces the pH value of water in those sources. As a result, heavy metals such as copper, lead, mercury, etc in other mineral ores also get dissolved into the water. The action of acidophile bacteria also increases the rate and degree of acid-mine drainage process.
The acid mine drainage causes water pollution and adversely affect the aquatic plants and animals. It also results in the contamination of drinking water, corrosion of infrastructures such as bridges, etc.
Answer:
105 mg
Explanation:
Given that:
1 baked potato provides 30 mg of vitamin C.
So,
70 baked potatoes provide 
mg of vitamin C
Also,
70 potatoes = 20 lb
So,
20 lb potatoes provide mg of vitamin C
Thus,
1 lb potatoes provide 
mg of vitamin C
<u>Thus, 105 mg of Vitamin C are provided per pound of the potatoes.</u>
<span>Given:
3,500 kilometers
Find:</span>
Years for two continents to collide = ?
<span>Solution:
We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another
are 1 centimeter per year.
So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>
</span>
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
1 km = 100,000 cm
3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm
Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means
350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.
Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents
that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.
<span>
To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at
convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.
