Answer: 43.58 min

Explanation:

Knowing the volume of a rectangular object is length x width x height, we have two volumes:

V_{1}=(9 in)(13 in)(14 in)=1638 in^{3}

V_{2}=(21 in)(25 in)(34 in)=17850 in^{3}

And we know it takes a time of 4 minutes to fill V_{1}.

If we want to know how long will it take the same hose to fill another tank with volume V_{2}, we can use the <u>Rule of three</u>, which is a mathematical rule to find out an amount that is with another quantity given in the same relation as other two also known:

1638in^{3} ---- 4min

17850in^{3} ---- ?

?=\frac{(17850 in^{3})(4min)}{1638 in^{3}}

Finally:

?=43.58 min

Why are there two fluoride ions in magnesium fluoride but only one fluoride ion in lithium fluoride
postnew [5]
This would be more of a chemistry question. Remember magnesium has a charge of 2+, and would need to hand off its two extra electrons. Fluorine can only take one electron at a time, so there needs to be two fluorines to take one magnesium's 2 electrons. 

With lithium, it has a +1 charge, so it has one extra electron, which it can hand off to just 1 fluorine atom. 

Another way of looking at this is: Mg^{2+} + 2F^{-} = MgF2  (the charges must balance out to zero)

Li^{+} + F^{-} = LiF (the charges balance out to zero)

Elden [556K]
<h2>Diagonal of circle </h2>

Explanation:

As the skateboarder wants to cross the play ground . The surface is rough .

As we know , the force of friction is non-conservative force . Thus work is required against this force .

We have formula:

work done = Force x distance (in one direction )

Te force applied cannot be changed , so he is to decrease the distance .

In case of circle , diameter is the minimum distance . Thus he is supposed to move along it .

Which part of the drum vibrates when it produces sound?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Explanation:

For example, when a drum is struck, the flexible skin (sometimes called a membrane) of the drum vibrates. The compression and expansion of the air on either side of the vibrating membrane produces differences in air pressure. The pressure differences generate a sound wave that propagates outward from the drum surface.
