Answer from: christinaruckepegvlp

17.8 mAs

Explanation:

The exposure maintenance formula shows that as SID increases, intensity decreases, causing a decrease in film exposure and density. The mAs is directly proportional to the square of the distance. That is as mAs increases, distance increases, and vice versa, in order to maintain image receptor exposure. It is given by:

$\frac{mAs_1}{mAs_2}=\frac{D_1^2}{D_2^2}$

Given that mAs₁ = original mAs = 40 mAs, D₁ original distance = 60 in, D₂ = new distance = 40 in, mAs₂ = new mAs

$\frac{mAs_1}{mAs_2}=\frac{D_1^2}{D_2^2}\\\\mAs_2=\frac{mAs_1*D_2^2}{D_1^2}=\frac{40*40^2}{60^2}=17.8\\\\mAs_2=17.8\ mAs$

Answer from: Quest

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water

Athin plate moves between two parallel, horizontal, stationary flat surfaces at a constant velocity of v = 7.5 m/s. the two stationary surfaces are spaced 4 cm apart, and the medium between them is filled with oil whose viscosity is 0.9 n·s/m2. the part of the plate immersed in oil at any given time is 2 m long and 0.5 m wide. if the plate moves through the mid-plane between the surfaces, determine the force required to maintain this motion. what would your response be if the plate was 1 cm from the bottom surface (h2) and 3 cm from the top surface (h1)? if the plate moves through the mid-plane between the surfaces, the force required to maintain the motion will be n. if the plate was 1 cm from the bottom surface (h2) and 3 cm from the top (h1) surface, the force required to maintain the motion would be n.
