The electrical system that provides power to your school has two major parts: The transmission line which sends power to your lo

cal area and the distribution lines which transmit the power locally. For safety and efficiency, the voltage must be ______________ in the transmission lines and ____________ in the distribution lines.

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Because of the resistance of transmission lines, high current along the line leads to large voltage drop. This voltage drop causes low efficiency because the voltage at the receiving end is far less than that at the sending end.

Therefore there is need to transmit at a higher voltage (smaller current) than that required by distribution because of efficiency.

Hence, For safety and efficiency, the voltage must be large in the transmission lines and small in the distribution lines.

Your friend claims that weather predictions are just guesses. What would you say to change your friend's mind?
VashaNatasha [74]
To change my friends mind, after they've already said weather predictions are just guesses, I would say they are correct, but not only to they use guesses to predict what will happen, but they also, before hand, use atmospheric tools. They then predict from the data collected. They do both.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

What are we supposed to find, if it is kinetic energy then this is the solution.

K.E=1/2mv^2

K.E= kinetic energy

M=mass

V=velocity

K.E =0.5*55*0.6^2

K.E=9.9J

Does anyone know this one? Thanks
Inessa [10]

Answer:

3.844\,*\,10^5

So a=3.844 and b=5

Explanation:

Scientific notation requests to write a number using powers of ten as a factor accompanying a real number (a) between 1 and smaller than 10 that contains the digits to exactly represent the original number. So in this case, the number 384,400 can be written as:

384,400=3.844 \,*\,100,000= 3.844 \,*\,10^5

with a=3.844, and "5" as the exponent of ten (so b=5)
