which line in this excerpt from the still alarm by george s. kaufman demonstrates the use of understatement?
ed (follows over to the window r.): how is the fire?

first fireman (feels the wall): it's pretty bad right now. this wall will go pretty soon now, but it'll fall out that way, so it's all right. (peers out) that next room is the place to fight it from. (crosses to door l. bob shows ties as ed crosses. )

ed (sees ties): oh! aren't those gorgeous!

first fireman (to bob): have you got the key for this room?

bob: why, no. i've got nothing to do with that room. i've just got this one. (folding a shirt as he talks.)

ed: oh, it's very comfortable.

The line in this excerpt from The Still Alarm by George S. Kaufman that demonstrates the use of understatement is - FIRST FIREMAN (feels the wall): "It's pretty bad right now. "

Explanation:

The Still Alarm is a play, written by George S. Kaufman. In the play, Kaufman uses understatements to mock the British for their calmness, which is present even in quite stressful situations that would normally create panic.

An understatement is the presentation of something as being less important than it actually is. They are often used to create a humorous situation. The fire is strong enough to destroy the wall, but the fireman only states 'it's pretty bad." This is an example of an understatement - instead of describing fire as quite dangerous or horrible, he uses this weak description.

a solenoid is created by wrapping a l = 90 m long wire around a hollow tube of diameter d = 4.5 cm.   the wire diameter is d = 0.9 mm.   the solenoid wire is then connected to a power supply so that a current of i = 9 a flows through the wire.

randomized variablesl = 90 m

d = 4.5 cm

d = 0.9 mm

i = 9 a                                          

write an expression for the number of turns, n, in the solenoid. you do not need to take into account the diameter of the wire in this calculation.

calculate the number of turns, n, in the solenoid.

write an expression for the length of the solenoid (l2) in terms of the diameter of the hollow tube d.

calculate the length of the solenoid (l2)   in meters.

calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid in teslas.
