Answer:

24 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the 2 gallons of gas increased the fill ratio from 1/6 to 1/4, we can find how much of the tank the 2 gallons filled by solving the equation 1/4 - 1/6 = 1/12. This means that each gallon of gas is 1/24th of the tank.

Thus, the tank has a fuel capacity of 24 gallons.

A 748-N man stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius 4.0 m. He is unable to get to the other side because of a lack of fr
Ber [7]

Answer:

The man will take 64 seconds to reach to the south shore of the frozen pond.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight of the man = 748 N      Mass of the man,(m)= \frac{W}{g} = \frac{748}{9.8} = 76.32 kg

Radius of the pond (r) = 4 m

Mass of the textbook = 1.2 kg

Velocity at which the textbook is thrown = 4 ms^1

We have to find the velocity of the man after the throw.

Let the velocity is V_m .

Now using law of conservation of momentum we can find the V_m value.

m_(_b_)V_b_(_i_) +m_(_m_)V_m_(_i_) =m_(_b_)V_b_(_f_)+m_(_m_) V_m_(_f_)

Considering V_m_(_f_)=V_m

And initial velocity of both the man and book i.e V_b_(_i_)=0,\ V_m_(i_)=0

So,

⇒ 0 =m_(_b_)V_b_(_f_)+m_(_m_) V_m

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ V_m=-\frac{m_(_b_)V_b_(_f_)}{m_(_m_)}

⇒ V_m=-\frac{1.2\times 4}{76.32}

⇒ V_m=-0.062 ms^-1

Here the negative velocity is meant for opposite direction of the throw.

Numerically we will write, V_m = 0.062

With this velocity the man will move towards south.

We have to calculate the time taken by the man to move to its south shore.

And we know velocity(v)\times time(t) = distance(d)

Let the time taken be t and v\times t = d and d=r then, V_m\times t=r

Then

⇒ t=\frac{radius\ (r)}{V_m}

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ t=\frac{4}{0.062}

⇒ t =64 sec

The man will take 64 seconds to reach to the south shore of the frozen pond (circular).
