Answer: Non metal.

Explanation: Carbon has 4 electrons in it’s valence shell which makes it a metalloid but commonly it is considered as a non metal.

An offshore oil well is 2 kilometers off the coast. The refinery is 4 kilometers down the coast. Laying pipe in the ocean is twi

shusha [124]

Answer:

Rectangular path

Solution:

As per the question:

Length, a = 4 km

Height, h = 2 km

In order to minimize the cost let us denote the side of the square bottom be 'a'

Thus the area of the bottom of the square, A = $a^{2}$

Let the height of the bin be 'h'

Therefore the total area, $A_{t} = 4ah$

The cost is:

C = 2sh

Volume of the box, V = $a^{2}h = 4^{2}\times 2 = 128$ (1)

Total cost, $C_{t} = 2a^{2} + 2ah$ (2)

From eqn (1):

$h = \frac{128}{a^{2}}$

Using the above value in eqn (1):

$C(a) = 2a^{2} + 2a\frac{128}{a^{2}} = 2a^{2} + \frac{256}{a}$

$C(a) = 2a^{2} + \frac{256}{a}$

Differentiating the above eqn w.r.t 'a':

$C'(a) = 4a - \frac{256}{a^{2}} = \frac{4a^{3} - 256}{a^{2}}$

For the required solution equating the above eqn to zero:

$\frac{4a^{3} - 256}{a^{2}} = 0$

a = 4

Also

$h = \frac{128}{4^{2}} = 8$

The path in order to minimize the cost must be a rectangle.

A seagull flying horizontally at 8.00m/s carries a clam with a mass of 300g in its beak. Calculate the total mechanical energy o

Stells [14]

Answer:

9.6J+88.2J=97.8J

Explanation:

Here the velocity of the seagull is given,mass is given and its height.

We have to find its mechanical energy my friend.

Mechanical energy=kinetic energy + potential energy.

First we will find kinetic energy.

For calculating kinetic energy we need mass and velocity,which are given here.

So, Ek=

$1 \div 2mv {?}^{2}$

So by substituting the values we get 9.6J.

Now we find the potential energy which is mgh.

By substituting the values we get 88.2J.

Then we add both of those and get 97.8J

I hope this satisfies you and make sure you contact me if it doesn't
