Answer:

True

Explanation:

The reason this is true is that technology has a greater good other than just our phones, technology is how we can create anything from new medicine to a new microwave. So the answer is true because technology has more positive effects than negative effects.

False, there are negative side affects that have just as much if not more impact. One example of this is the effect on natural habit.

For the following conditions determine whether a CMFR or a PFR is more efficient in removing a reactive compound from the waste

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The PFR is more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

Xₚբᵣ = 0.632

X꜀ₘբᵣ = 0.5

Xₚբᵣ > X꜀ₘբᵣ

Explanation:

From the reaction rate coefficient, it is evident the reaction is a first order reaction

Performance equation for a CMFR for a first order reaction is

kτ = (X)/(1 - X)

k = reaction rate constant = 0.05 /day

τ = Time constant or holding time = V/F₀

V = volume of reactor = 280 m³

F₀ = Flowrate into the reactor = 14 m³/day

X = conversion

k(V/F₀) = (X)/(1 - X)

0.05 × (280/14) = X/(1 - X)

1 = X/(1 - X)

X = 1 - X

2X = 1

X = 1/2 = 0.5

For the PFR

Performance equation for a first order reaction is given by

kτ = In [1/(1 - X)]

The parameters are the same as above,

0.05 × (280/14) = In (1/(1-X)

1 = In (1/(1-X))

e = 1/(1 - X)

2.718 = 1/(1 - X)

1 - X = 1/2.718

1 - X = 0.3679

X = 1 - 0.3679

X = 0.632

The PFR is evidently more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

Compact fluorescent bulbs are much more efficient at producing light than are ordinary incandescent bulbs. They initially cost m

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

ordinary bulb total cost is $39.54

fluorescent bulb total cost is $13.05

amount save = 39.54 - 13.05 = $26.49

resistance = 626.1 ohm

Explanation:

in the 1st part

bulb on time = 3 year = 4380 hours

life of bulb = 750 h

so number of bulb required = $\frac{4380}{750}$

number of bulb required = 6

cost of 6 bulb is = 6 × 0.75 = $4.5

cost of operation is = 100 × 4380 × $\frac{0.08}{1000}$

cost of operation = $35.04

so total cost will be = $4.5 + $35.04 = $39.54

and

when compare with florescent bulb

time = 3 year = 4380 h

life of bulb = 10000 h

so number of bulb required = $\frac{4380}{10000}$

number of bulb required = 0.43 = 1

cost of 6 bulb is = 1 × 5 = $5

cost of operation is = 23 × 4380 × $\frac{0.08}{1000}$

cost of operation = $8.05

so total cost will be = $5 + $8.05 = $13.05

in part 2nd

total amount save while compare bulb is

amount save = 39.54 - 13.05 = $26.49

and in part 3rd

resistance of bulb is

resistance = $\frac{v^2}{P}$

resistance = $\frac{120^2}{23}$

resistance = 626.1 ohm

Do you think that individuals with the same disabilities have the same needs? If your answer is yes, how? /No, why?

Blababa [14]

Disability is extremely diverse. While some health conditions associated with disability result in poor health and extensive health care needs, others do not. However, all people with disability have the same general health care needs as everyone else, and therefore need access to mainstream health care services.
