    3u Mathematics Marathon V 1.1

    i seem to recall ive done this question before....somewhere i) as t -> infinity, ce-1000t->0, then P->1000 ii) if t=0 and P=1, then c=999. put P=500, then 999e-1000t=1, then t=[ln(999)]/100=0.0690675...years=25.2days. so after 26 days 500 chivkens will be infected iii) on differentiating...

    why ozone is more soluble in water the O2 ?

    your right....what was i thinking that means because its a bent structure electron distribution is not symmetrical. there also exists a lone pair of electrons, which, i think is the reason for the polarity. sorry for confusing anybody

    why ozone is more soluble in water the O2 ?

    i dont know if your explanation is accurate.....but i thought it was just the fact that ozone provides greater surface area over which dispersion forces are created so there is stronger force of attraction, since water is polar and 02 and 03 are not, so the only van der waal forces that can be...

    harder circle geo questions

    from fitzpatrick Ex. 37(a) (this exercise seems ridiculously difficult, i read through most questions and could probably do about 5, these are a few with which i had absolutely no idea) Q20. O is point on a given circle. A circle, centre O cuts this given circle at P and Q and a chord PR of...

    Induction Q

    assume the stat. is true for n=k Uk = 9k+1 -8k-9 = 64P , to use this make 9k+1 the subject then, U(k+1) = 9k+2 -8(k+1)-9 write this as 9.9k+1-8(k+1)-9 by...

    inequalities question

    (ad-bc)^2>=0 then expand and rearrange to get a^2d^2+b^2c^2 >=0 then multiply throughout by -1 then add a^2c^2+b^2d^2 then factorise and rearrange kind of like what you did but the other way around

    Please HELP!!!

    i think because when youve added the impurity it takes up part of the surface, thus preventing vapourised molecules to escape as easily, so a higher temp. would be required. not really surethough, just guessing, give some other BoSer's some time, theyll know

    need help urgent plz

    i thought it would have been the B, the atmosphere because it contains N2, O2, Ar which are all elements doesnt the lithosphere contain mainly compounds, like metal oxides and stuff. riviet, can u explain why you'd choose A thanks

    WHy do different elements produce colours in flame test?

    "why do different elements produce different colours in flame tests" i thought it was basically because certain atoms/ions have differing distances between electron energy shells. so when an excited electron falls back from its excited state it produces energy of a different frequency, thus...

    Difference between charge and a free radical

    thats exactly the difference the dot says it is a radical, one electron away from a complete outer shell, these radicals (atoms) are rarely found in nature because they react so readily. on the other hand you have chlorine ions which are completely different to Cl radicals because these ions...

    The terrorism theory President Bush refuses to hear

    i dont know if this is relevant - i guess it is in a way. i found these CNNNN vids on youtube, titled stupid americans, its probably a bit of a sweeping generalisation, but anyway, some CNNNN correspondent is going around on the streets asking people questions about global politics, geography...
