Answer:

$15\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we can use is

$d=\sqrt{2} *a$

Where d is the length of the diagonal and a is the length of the side of the square

Since, the floppies are in square shape and side length is 15, so a = 15

We simply put it into the formula and get length of diagonal.

$d=\sqrt{2} *a\\d=\sqrt{2} *15\\d=15\sqrt{2}$

Hence, diagonal length is $15\sqrt{2}$

A raindrops has a mass of 0.50g. how many moles of water does a raindrop contain

alina1380 [7]

So, here you have to look at the periodic table and see what the molar mass of each molecule composing the water compound $H_2 O$
its two hydrogen atom plus an oxygen molecule, making it about 18g per mol.

That said, looking at the mass, we have to ask ourselves, if a mol of water contains 18g of mass, how many moles do we have in 0.5g of water?
We just do a cross multiplication:
$\frac{(0.5)}{18} =0.027 mol$

The outside temperature at midnight today in Polina's hometown was 18 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature increases by 1.2 degre

densk [106]

Answer:

only students who have recess at 12 p.m. or later may go out

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time after midnight be represented by t, and the temperature be y. Since the temperature increases by 1.2 degrees Fahrenheit each hour, the time taken to reach 32 degrees Fahrenheit can be gotten from:

y = 1.2t + 18

put y = 32

32 = 1.2t + 18

1.2t = 14

t = 14/1.2 = 11.67 hours

Since the recess starts at half hour or hour, hence the recess would start at t = 12 hours, i.e. at 12 p.m.

Hence only students who have recess at 12 p.m. or later may go out
