The speed of sound is measured to be 340 m/s on a certain day.

Answer: 1,224 km/h

Explanation:

To do this, we pick the first unit and convert
Picking m first and converting to km:
Since we're converting from a non-prefix to a prefix, we divide the value by the prefix were taking it to. In this case, kilo = 10³ which means we're going to divide our value by 1000 to convert it from m to km
340 m/s ÷ 1000 = 0.34 km/s
Now, let's convert our seconds to hour:
We'll need to calculate how many hours is equivalent to one second first;
1 hr = 60×60 seconds
X hr = 1 second
*Cross multiply*
1 × 1 = X × 60 × 60
1 = 3,600 X
X = 1 / 3,600
X = 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour
So, in the place of "1 Second", we're going to be inserting 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour instead
0.34 km / s = 0.34 km / 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour
(0.34 / 2.778×10⁻⁴) km/hour
1,224 km/h.
340 m/s = 1,224 km/h

For adults, the RDA of the amino acid lysine is 12 mg per kg of body weight. How many grams per day should a 78kg adult receive?

kari74 [83]

RDA stands for Recommended Daily Allowance. To determine the amount needed of a certain adult per day, we simply multiply the mass of the adult to the value of RDA. For this case, we do as follows:

Daily requirement = 12 mg/kg ( 78 kg ) = 936 mg of lysine = 936000 g

jolli1 [7]

Your answer is B.

The relationship between medium temperature and speed of sound is a direct relationship: when one factor increases, the other increases as is shown in graph B. The British would choose the the time of day which would give the lowest speed of sound, because this would be easiest to break. Graph B shows that the lowest speed of sound would occur with the lowest air temperature - in the morning.
