Answer:
the preview of the scientific method
Why is it important that your finger be wet if you intend to touch it briefly to a hot clothes iron to test its temperature. If your finger is wet, some of the heat transmitted to your finger will be given to the water which has a high specific heat capacity and also a larger latent heat of vaporization.

Explanation:
The 11Ω, 22Ω, and 33Ω resistors are in parallel. That combination is in series with the 4Ω and 10Ω resistors.
The net resistance is:
R = 4Ω + 10Ω + 1/(1/11Ω + 1/22Ω + 1/33Ω)
R = 20Ω
Using Ohm's law, we can find the current going through the 4Ω and 10Ω resistors:
V = IR
120 V = I (20Ω)
I = 6 A
So the voltage drops are:
V = (4Ω) (6A) = 24 V
V = (10Ω) (6A) = 60 V
That means the voltage drop across the 11Ω, 22Ω, and 33Ω resistors is:
V = 120 V − 24 V − 60 V
V = 36 V
So the currents are:
I = 36 V / 11 Ω = 3.27 A
I = 36 V / 22 Ω = 1.64 A
I = 36 V / 33 Ω = 1.09 A
If we wanted to, we could also show this using Kirchhoff's laws.
Answer: (a) Z-score are 1 and -1.2 for northern and southern regions, respectively.
Explanation: <u>Z-score</u> is how many standard deviations a data is from the population mean or how far a data point is from the mean.
The z-score is calculated by the following:

where
x is the data point
μ is population mean
σ is standard deviation
For the <u>northern</u> <u>region</u> birds:
μ = 10, σ = 3, x = 13

z = 1
The z-score for birds living in the northern region is 1, which means it is 1 standard deviation <em>above the mean</em>.
For the southern region:
μ = 16, σ = 2.5, x = 13

z = -1.2
The z-score for southern living birds is -1.2, meaning it is 1.2 standard deviations <em>below the mean</em>.
