A person with body resistance between his hands of 10KΩ accidentally grasps the terminal of a 14-KV power supply.If the internal resistance of the...

The current 'I' that flows when a voltage 'V' is applied
across a resistor 'R' is given by I = V/R.

Here, the total
resistance is 10000 + 2000 = 12000 ohm.

The voltage applied
across this resistance is 14000 V.

This makes a current
equal to 14000/12000 = 7/6 amp flow through the person's
body.

The power P dissipated is given as P =
V^2/R

We are only interested in the power dissipated
through the person's body. This is given by (14000)^2/10000 = 19600

The current flowing through the resistance
is 7/6 amp and the power dissipated through the person's body is 19600

Who wrote the Bible?I can't seem to figure out who the author/s of the Bible is or how long it took to write, or why it was even writen in the...

Many different authors were used in the compilation of the
various forms of The Bible. In most cases, especially in the New Testament, the name of
the individual book represents the authorship (for example, in the New Testament, the
books of Matthew, Mark and Luke were all written by the apostles of the same name). It
is not always the case, however. For example, it is believed that Samuel wrote the book
of Ruth. Different religions disagree to a great degree over who wrote the individual
books. According to Hebrew tradition, it was Moses who wrote the first five
books--Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and most of Deuteronomy. The link below is an
interesting one and may clear up some of your uncertainties.

Consider Hard Times as a social satire.

This excellent Dickensian classic promotes the fear that
the author had of the impact of embracing industrialisation in society and how this
would, in turn, inhibit humanity and turn them into machines, stunting their emotional
and intellectual development. Note how in the novel, both Gradgrind and Bounderby follow
this approach, though in different environments. Gradgrind brings up his children and
his students to focus on "Facts" alone, eschewing any form of fancy or the emotions.
Bounderby treats his workers, referred to with the dehumanising title of "Hands," in a
similar way, as his workers are objects whom he exploits to better
himself.

Notice the link that Dickens draws between
Gradgrind's children and Bounderby and Coketown society in terms of their philosphical
approach to life in Chapter Five:

Fact, fact, fact, everywhere in the material
aspect of the town; fact, fact, fact, everywhere in the immaterial. The M'Choakumchild
school was all fact, and the school of design was all fact, and the relations between
master and man were all fact, and everything was fact between the lying-in-hospital and
the cemetry, and what you couldn't state in figures, or show to be purchaseable in the
cheapest market and saleable in the dearest, was not, and never should be, world without
end, Amen.

Note the
repetition of the word "fact" and the way that there is no room for emotion, for fancy,
or for anything that cannot be purchased or sold or quantified. Dickens thus presents us
with a view of life that removes emotion and the imagination, and which makes humanity
suffer as a result.

Compare textualism to contextualism.

Textual and contextual refer to ways of reading the U.S.
Constitution and other legal documents. The textual mode of reading is literal. It is
concerned with what the text states. The textual mode of reading does not inquire into
what the authors meant to convey, nor does it account for the specific social and
historical considerations the authors may have made. Instead, the textual mode of
thinking considers how best to apply the letter of the law to the situation at
hand.

The contextual mode of reading seeks to identify the
authors' intent. Instead of focusing on the letter of the law, the contextualist reader
tries to figure out what the authors were trying to accomplish. Contextualism takes into
account the social and historical moment in which the text was created. Contextual
readings sometimes radically depart from textualist readings because contextualism
values meaning and intent over form.

How is Pemberley's description representative of its owner's personality in Pride and Prejudice?

It is highly revealing that in Chapter 43 we meet
Pemberley as the home of Darcy before we actually meet a very different and changed
Darcy from the man we have come to know from the earlier chapters in the book. Often
Austen uses buildings to reveal characters, and this is a prime example. Note how
Pemberley is described as Lizzie sets eyes on it for the first time and how it
symbolises the character of its owner:

readability="13">

It was a large, handsome, stone building,
standing well on rising ground, and backed by a ridge of high woody hills; and in front,
a stream of some natural importance was swelled into greater, but without any artificial
appearance. Its banks were neither formal nor falsely
adorned.

The house, like its
owner, is handsome and has a good position. Yet what is most important to a novel that
is all about first impressions and the gap between reality and artifice, Pemberley is
what it is without any unnatural improvements. Note how the banks of the stream are
"neither formal nor falsely adorned," indicating that Darcy is very natural in who he
is. He does not pretend to be something that he is not, as so many other characters to
in this novel. It is important, and rather ironic, that at this stage in the novel
Lizzie remarks that to be the mistress of Pemberley would be
"something."

The sum of the legs of a right triangle is 17 an hypothenuse is 13. What is the product of cosines of acute angles?

Let b and c be the legs of the right angle triangle and a
is the hypothenuse.

According to enunciation, the sum of
the legs is:

b + c = 17

The
hypotenuse is of 13 units: a = 13

Let B and C be the acute
angles of the right triangle.

cos B = adjacent
leg/hypotenuse = c/a

cos C =
b/a

We'll multiply cos B by cos
C:

cos B*cos C = c*b/a^2

We'll
apply Pythagorean theorem in a right angle triangle:

a^2 =
b^2 + c^2

But b^2 + c^2  = (b+c)^2 -
2bc

a^2 = (b+c)^2 - 2bc

13^2 =
17^2 - 2bc

We'll isolate 2bc to the
left:

2bc = 17^2 - 13^2

2bc =
(17 - 13)(17 + 13)

bc =
4*30/2

bc = 60

cos B*cos C =
bc/a^2 = 60/169

The requested value of the
product cos B*cos C is: cos B*cos C = 60/169.

When Atticus reacts to Jem's Boo Radley game in To Kill a Mockingbird, what do you notice about the way he disciplines his children?I'm doing a...

Atticus played a little game with his children (and Dill)
himself when he caught them playing the parts of the Radleys outside one day. They were
busy playing "Chapter XXV, Book II of One Man's Family" when they spotted the previously
unseen Atticus behind them, "slapping a rolled magazine against his knee." When he asked
them what game they were playing, Jem lied. "Nothing," he told his father. When Atticus
asked what the scissors were for, Jem again replied, "Nothing." When Atticus asked if
the game had anything to do with the Radleys, Jem lied
again.

"I hope
it doesn't," he said shortly, and went inside the
house.

Although Jem wanted to
keep playing, Scout knew that Atticus' firm answer meant that bad things could happen if
they continued. Jem  argued that Atticus didn't tell them they couldn't continue
playing, but Scout didn't want to risk the tanning Atticus had threatened. She was also
pretty sure that her father was aware that Jem was lying, but he decided to give them
another chance to mend their ways.

When Atticus did catch
them later trying to send Boo a message on the end of a fishing pole, he warned them in
stronger terms.
