Answer:

First, they are the most visible and authoritative spokesperson for the majority party in the House. Speakers articulate an agenda and explain legislative action to other Washington officials as well as the public. They oversee House committee assignments and collaborate with the powerful House Rules Committee to structure floor debate.

Second, the speaker manages business on the floor and navigates legislative rules, structuring House debate in a way that will advantage their legislative priorities. Adherence to strict rules and procedures is necessary to overcome the difficulty of managing a large legislative body like the House of Representatives.

Third, the speaker oversees everything from accounting to procurement for the House.

Answer:

option B

Explanation:

When a body is immersed in liquid there will be two force is acting on the body.

First one force acting downward due to weight of the body.

And the second force acting on the object will be buoyant force.

If the object is not in equilibrium the apparent weight will be equal to net force acting on the object.

$F_{net} = W - F_b$

W is the weight of the object acting downward

Fb is the buoyancy force acting upward on the object.

Hence, the correct answer is option B

alisha [4.7K]

Produce gas is a fuel gas that is used in industries for heating or boiling. It is produced by passing a stream of air or steam through burning coal. The major composition of the fuel gas is carbon monoxide due to incomplete combustion or the presence of water.

we measure a voltage difference of 5.0 V between two points on the conducting paper between two parallel conducting electrodes.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

E=1824.81 V/m

Explanation:

Given that

Voltage difference = 5 V

Distance ,D= 3 mm

θ = 24°

As we know that electric filed given as

$E=\dfrac{V}{d}$

Given that D is 24° with respect to the perpendicular to the electrodes.So we have to take cos component of D.

d= D cosθ

d= 3 cos24°

d = 2.74 mm

$E=\dfrac{V}{d}$

$E=\dfrac{5}{2.74\times 10^{-3}}$

E=1824.81 V/m

Blood pressure is usually measured by wrapping a closed air-filled jacket equipped with a pressure gage around the upper arm of

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

a) High and low pressures are 15.999 kilopascals and 10.666 kilopascals, respectively.

b) High and low pressures are 2.320 pounds per square inch and 1.547 pounds persquare inch, respectively.

c) High and low pressures are 1.632 meters water column and 1.088 meters water column, respectively.

Explanation:

a) High and low pressures in kilopascals:

101.325 kPa equals 760 mm Hg, then, we can obtain the values by a single conversion:

$p_{high} = 120\,mm\,Hg\times \frac{101.325\,kPa}{760\,mm\,Hg}$

$p_{high} = 15.999\,kPa$

$p_{low} = 80\,mm\,Hg\times \frac{101.325\,kPa}{760\,mm\,Hg}$

$p_{low} = 10.666\,kPa$

High and low pressures are 15.999 kilopascals and 10.666 kilopascals, respectively.

b) High and low pressures in pounds per square inch:

14.696 psi equals 760 mm Hg, then, we can obtain the values by a single conversion:

$p_{high} = 120\,mm\,Hg\times \frac{14.696\,psi}{760\,mm\,Hg}$

$p_{high} = 2.320\,psi$

$p_{low} = 80\,mm\,Hg\times\frac{14.696\,psi}{760\,mm\,Hg}$

$p_{low} = 1.547\,psi$

High and low pressures are 2.320 pounds per square inch and 1.547 pounds persquare inch, respectively.

c) High and low pressures in meter water column in meters water column:

We can calculate the equivalent water column of a mercury column by the following relation:

$\frac{h_{w}}{h_{Hg}} = \frac{\rho_{Hg}}{\rho_{w}}$

$h_{w} = \frac{\rho_{Hg}}{\rho_{w}}\times h_{Hg}$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$\rho_{w}$ , $\rho_{Hg}$ - Densities of water and mercury, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

$h_{w}$ , $h_{Hg}$ - Heights of water and mercury columns, measured in meters.

If we know that $\rho_{w} = 1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}$ , $\rho_{Hg} = 13600\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}$ , $h_{Hg, high} = 0.120\,m$ and $h_{Hg, low} = 0.080\,m$ , then we get that:
