Between 1985 and 2003, data were collected every three years on the amount of plastic produced annually in the United States, in billions of pounds. The graph below shows the data and a line of best fit. The equation of the line of best fit is y = 3.39x + 46.89, where x is the number of years since 1985 and y is the amount of plastic produced annually, in billions of pounds. Which of the following is closest to the percent increase in the billions of pounds of plastic produced in the United States from 2000 to 2003?

The figure below shows the relationship between the percent of leaf litter mass remaining after decomposing for 3 years and the mean annual temperature, in degrees Celsius (.^@C) , in 18 forests in Canada. A line of best fit is also shown. A particular forest in Canada, whose data is not included in the figure, had a mean annual temperature of −2^@C . Based on the line of best fit, which of the following is closest to the predicted percent of leaf litter mass remaining in this particular forest after decomposing for 3 years?

a thin slice is cut from a bagel, creating the cross - section represented below . The diameter of the bagel is 144 mm and the width from the inner edge of the bagel to the outer edge is uniformly 56 mm. Which of the following is closest to the area , in square millimeters , of the shaded empty space inside the cross -section of the bagel ?

Halle is bowling a series of 3 games. She has bowled 2 of 3 games with scores of 148 and 176. The figure below is a top view of the bowling lane. The dimensions for the bowling lane are given in the figure. The pin deck is the rectangular area within the bowling lane where the bowling pins are set up. (Note: The figure is not drawn to scale.) The diameter of each pin at its base is 2.25 in. When all of the pins are set up, which of the following values is closest to the area, in square inches, that is covered by the bases of the pins?

An experimental setup of verification of photoelectric effect is shown if Fig. The voltage across the electrodes is measured with the help of an ideal voltmeter, and which can be varied by moving jockey J on the potentiometer with wire. The battery used in potentiometer circuit is of 20 V and its internal resistance is 2 Omega . The resistance of 100 cm long potentiometer wire is 8 Omega . The photocurrent is measured with the help of an ideal ammeter. Two plates of potassium oxide of area 50 cm^2 at separation 0.5mm are used in the vacuum tube. Photocurrent in the circuit is very small, so we can treat the potentiometer circuit as an independent circuit. The wavelength of various colors is as follows: Q. Which of the following colors may not give photoelectric effect for this cathode? if power of incident light is 4*10^-6 and currenr 2micro ampere.

A solution of palmitic acid (Molar mass = 256) in Benzene contain 5.12 g of acid per litre of solution. When this solution is dropped on a water surface, the Benzene evaporates and acid forms a monolayer film of solid type. If 500 cm^(2) are is to be covered by a monolayer, then find X, where X = (V)/(100) , when V is volume required of solution. The area covered by 1 molecule = 0.2 nm^(2) .
