Symbol for 1 thousandth of a meter?

1 answer:

4 0

The micrometre (International spelling as used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures;[1] SI symbol: μm) or micrometer (American spelling), alsocommonly known as a micron, is an SI derived unit of length equaling 1×10−6 of ametre (SI standard prefix "micro-" = 10−6); that is, one millionth of a metre (or one thousandth of a millimetre, 0.001 mm, or about 0.000039 inch).[1] The symbol μm is sometimes rendered as um if the symbol μ cannot be used, or if the writer is not aware of the distinction.[citation needed]

The micrometre is a common unit of measurement for wavelengths of infrared radiation as well as sizes of biological cells and bacteria and is also commonly used in plastics manufacturing.[1] Micrometres are the standard for grading wool by the diameter of the fibres; wool finer than 25 μm can be used for garments, while coarser grades are used for outerwear, rugs, and carpets.[2] The width of a single human hair ranges from approximately 10 to 200 μm. The first and longest human chromosome is 10μm in length.

atroni [7]

<h3>Answer: There is only one answer and it is choice B</h3><h3>Angle 1 and angle 4 are alternate interior angles</h3>

========================================================

Explanation

A. This is false because it should be angle 4 + angle 5 = 180 without the angle 6. Adding on angle 6 results in some angle larger than 180. Note how angle 5 = (angle 3)+(angle 6).
B. This is true and useful to showing that the three angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees. This is because you'll use the fact that angles 4, 5 and 6 combine to 180 degrees.
C. While this is a true statement by the exterior angle theorem, it is not useful to the proof. It is better to state that angle 2 and angle 6 are congruent because they are alternate interior angles.
D. Like choice C, it is true but not useful. It's better to say that angle 1 is congruent to angle 4. See choice B above.

Note how it's not enough for a statement to be true. It also needs to be relevant or useful to the context at hand. A more simpler example of this could be stating that x+x = 2x.

Answer:

1 litro de leche cuesta 2.5

1 kg de jamón serrano cuesta 35

1 litro de aceite de oliva cuesta 7,5

Step-by-step explanation:

Pregunta correcta completa

Un cliente de un supermercado ha pagado un total de 240 por 16 litros de leche,4kg de hamon serrano y 8 litros de aceite de oliva. Sabiendo que 1 litro de aceite cuesta el tripe de 1 litro de leche; que 1kg de jamon cuesta igual que el cliente tendria que pagar si hubiera comprado 5 litros de leche y 3 litros de aceite de oliva. Calcule el precio de cada artículo.

Solución

Deje que el precio de un litro de leche, un kilogramo de jamón serrano y un litro de aceite de oliva sea x, y y z respectivamente.

16 litros de leche, 4 kg de hamon serrano y 8 litros de aceite de oliva cuestan 240

16x + 4y + 8z = 240 (ecuación 1)

1 litro de aceite cuesta el triple de 1 litro de leche

z = 3x (ecuación 2)

Y ese 1 kg de jamón cuesta lo mismo que el cliente tendría que pagar si hubiera comprado 5 litros de leche y 3 litros de aceite de oliva.

y = 5x + 3z (ecuación 3)

Sustituyendo las ecuaciones 2 y 3 en la ecuación 1

16x + 4(5x + 3z) + 8(3x) = 240

16x + 20x + 12z + 24x = 240

Recordemos que z = 3x

36x + 12(3x) + 24x = 240

36x + 36x + 24x = 240

96x = 240

x = (240/96) = 2.5

z = 3x = 3 × 2.5 = 7.5

y = 5x + 3z = (5×2.5) + (3×7.5) = 35

English Translation

A supermarket customer has paid a total of 240 for 16 liters of milk, 4kg of hamon serrano and 8 liters of olive oil. Knowing that 1 liter of oil costs the tripe of 1 liter of milk; t that 1kg of ham costs the same as the customer would have to pay if he had bought 5 liters of milk and 3 liters of olive oil. Calculate the price of each item.

Solution

Let the price of a liter of milk, a kilogram of Serrano ham and a liter of olive oil be x, y and z respectively.

16 liters of milk, 4kg of hamon serrano and 8 liters of olive oil cost 240

16x + 4y + 8z = 240 (eqn 1)

1 liter of oil costs the triple of 1 liter of milk

z = 3x (eqn 2)

And that 1kg of ham costs the same as the customer would have to pay if he had bought 5 liters of milk and 3 liters of olive oil

y = 5x + 3z (eqn 3)

Substituting eqn 2 and 3 into eqn 1

16x + 4(5x + 3z) + 8(3x) = 240

16x + 20x + 12z + 24x = 240

Recall that z = 3x

36x + 12(3x) + 24x = 240

36x + 36x + 24x = 240

96x = 240

x = (240/96) = 2.5

z = 3x = 3 × 2.5 = 7.5

y = 5x + 3z = (5×2.5) + (3×7.5) = 35

1 liter of milk costs 2.5

1 kg of Serrano ham costs 35

1 liter of olive oil costs 7.5

Hope this Helps!!!

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

Base area = $A_{B}$ = 108 in.²

Volume = V = 729 in.³

Required:

Height = h = ?

Formula:

$V=A_{B}h$

Solution:

For h, rearranging formula:

$\displaystyle h = \frac{V}{A_{B}} \\\\h =\frac{729 \ in.^3}{108 \ in.^2} \\\\h = 6.75 \ in.\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}$
