Answer : 2. "15.69 cm"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 15.69 cm Explanation: Draw the two chords as shown in the figure. Let O be the center of the circle. Draw OC perpendicular to both chords. That divides the two chords in half.So CD = 10 and AB = 14. Draw radii OA and OD, both equal to radius r.We are given that BC = 5, the distance between the two chords. LetOB = x. We use the Pythagorean theorem on right triangle ABO AO² = AB² + OB² r² = 14² + x² We use the Pythagorean theorem on right triangle DCO DO² = CD² + OC² We see that OC = OB+BC = x+5, so r² = 10² + (x+5)² So we have a system of two equations: r² = 14² + x² r² = 10² + (x+5)² Since both left sides equal r², set the right sidesequal to each other. 14² + x² = 10² + (x+5)² 196 + x² = 100 + x² + 10x + 25 196 = 125 + 10x 71 = 10x 7.1 = x r² = 14² + x² r² = 196 + (7.1)² r² = 196 + 50.41 r² = 246.41 r = √246.41 r = 15.69745202 cm

Q: Why is burning coal a major source of pollution? 1077 0

Answer :
Explanation :

Coal is chemically complex fuel. Whenever it is burned, gases are given off and particles of ash, called "fly ash," are released. Release of sulfur from burning into the air. The sulfur in coal combines with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide, which can be a major source of air pollution if emitted in large enough quantities. This stuff comes back as acid rain when it attaches itself to a raindrop.    Today, many of the effects of coal burning have been reduced significantly or eliminated. This is super-nasty and is only stopped by buying low-sulfur coal from Montana or Wyoming. The eastern power plants have to pay to move the coal from out west and this increases the price of power production.
