One gallon of paint (volume = 3.79 X 10-???? m3) covers an area of 25.0 m2. What i the thickne s of the fresh paint on the wall?

Drupady [299]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Volume of paint is $V=3.79\times 10^{-3}\ m^3$

Area of cover $A=25\ m^2$

Suppose paint to be a rectangular box with thickness t and volume V

therefore we can write as

$V=A\times t$

$t=\frac{V}{A}$

$t=\frac{3.79\times 10^{-3}}{25}$

$t=1.516\times 10^{-3}\ m$

$t=1.516\ mm$

Two boats - Boat A and Boat B - are anchored a distance of 24 meters apart. The incoming water waves force the boats to oscillat

ozzi

Answer:

wavelength = 24 m

Period = 10 s

f = 0.1 Hz

Amplitude = 4 m

Explanation:

Wavelength:

Since the boats are at crest and trough, respectively at the same time. Hence, the horizontal distance between them is the wavelength of the wave:

wavelength = 24 m

Period:

The period is given as:

$Period = \frac{time}{no.\ of\ cycles} \\\\Period = \frac{10\ s}{1}\\\\$

Period = 10 s

Frequency:

The frequency is given as:

$f = \frac{1}{time\ period}\\\\f = \frac{1}{10\ s}\\\\$

f = 0.1 Hz

Amplitude:

Amplitude will be half the distance between extreme points, that is, crest and trough:

Amplitude = 8 m/2

Amplitude = 4 m

A clam dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 seconds to hit the ground. What is the seagull's approximate height above the ground at th

ankoles [38]

<h2>The seagull's approximate height above the ground at the time the clam was dropped is 4 m</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

Time, t = 3 s

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 3 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 3²

s = 44.145 m

The seagull's approximate height above the ground at the time the clam was dropped is 4 m

Suppose astronomers discover a type-M star with a very large luminosity. What type of star is it likely to be

lianna [129]

Answer: A red supergiant

Explanation:

Red supergiants are the stars that have a supergiant luminosity which has a class of either K or M spectral type. In terms of volume, they are regarded as the largest stars on Earth even though they are not the most luminous.

Red supergiants are formed when a star collapses after the hydrogen fuel that the star has in its core runs out and

then fusion begins when the outer shells of hydrogen gets hot.
