In large generators in power plants, ___________ rotate inside a coil of wire to produce an electric current

lapo4ka [179]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Magnets

In large generators in power plants, <u>magnets</u> rotate inside a coil of wire to produce an electric current.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Generators are devices that use electromagnetic induction to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy.
In power plants, large wheel known as turbine that rotates when pushed by steam,wind, or water and provides mechanical energy to a generator.
<u><em>Generators are used in power plants and have very large quantities of copper wire spinning around inside very large magnets, at very high speeds. A turbine spins the shaft that runs the generator. Eventually, electric current is generated.</em></u>

The fish died after living in the aquarium for many years

miv72 [106K]

In an aquarium the water quantity is limited and fish excrete ammonia through their gills and body, this dissolves in water and creates toxins.

<u>Explanation</u>:

In an aquarium the water quantity is limited and fish excrete ammonia through their gills and body, this dissolves in water and creates toxins. Over some time some bacteria develop in water which converts this ammonia into nitrites and then into nitrates. Till this process is complete, the aquarium remains a death trap.

There are some reasons for a fish to die early,

This one is common for beginners. They don’t have any idea about the nitrogen cycle. And they simply buy a fish tank and fish on the same day, go home and set it up.

Ammonia spikes - Even in a cycled tank, you can have occasional ammonia spikes due to overfeeding. Incompatible tank mates - If you put a too docile fish with a very aggressive cichlid, it will get harassed and eventually die due to stress.

This problem is providing us with the recommended maintenance dose of penicillin for children as 1.0 mg/kg/hr by injection. Thus, the delivery rate for a 40-pound child is required, if 10 mL of a 25 mg/mL solution of penicillin is added to a 100-mL bottle of saline. At the end, the result is 8.0 mL/hr:

<h3>Dimensional analysis:</h3>

In chemistry, dimensional analysis allows us to obtain a specific result given relevant information about it. Although a formula is not always provided, one can use the units as a reference for the calculations.

For example, this problem asks for the rate, in mL/hr, at which a child gets this dose, so the first step will be to get the mass of the child in kilograms:

$40 lb*\frac{0.4536kg}{1lb}= 18.144kg$

Next, we calculate the rate at which the penicillin is delivered to this child:

$1.0\frac{mg}{kg*hr} *18.144kg=18.144\frac{mg}{hr}$

After that, we calculate the total mass of penicillin that is delivered:

$10mL*25\frac{mg}{mL} =250 mg$

And get the new concentration once it is diluted to 100 mL:

$\frac{250mg}{10mL+100mL}=2.27\frac{mg}{mL}$

And finally, we combine the mg/hr with the mg/mL to get the result in mL/hr as required:

$18.144\frac{mg}{hr} *\frac{1mL}{2.27mg}\\ \\=8.0\frac{mL}{hr}$

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Crack the windows

Explanation:

believe it or not, one researcher actually tested this back in the 1980s: A study in Pediatrics found that cracking the window 5 centimeters lowered the temperature in a car by about 28°F on a 98°F day .
