Answer:

rpm= 916.7436 rev/min

Explanation:

First determine the perimeter of the wheel, to know the horizontal distance it travels in a revolution:

perimeter= π×diameter= π × 22 inches × 0.0254(m/inche)= 1.7555m

Time we divide the speed of the car, which is the distance traveled horizontally over time unit, by the perimeter of the wheel that is the horizontal distance traveled in a revolution, this dates us the revolutions over the time unit:

revolutions per time= velocity/perimeter

velocity= (60 mi/hr) × (1609.34m/mi) = 96560m/h

revolutions per time= (96560.6m/h) / (1.7555m)= 55004.614 rev/hr

rpm= (55004.614 rev/hr) × (hr/60min)= 916.7436 rev/min

A wave x meters long has a speed of y meters per second. The frequency of the wave is
Sergio [31]
The correct answer is (b.) y/x hertz. That is because the formula to get the frequency is f =  v / w. The following values (v=y meters / second; wavelength = x meters) must be substituted to the equation, which leaves you y/x hertz.

A watering can is most likely measured in which metric unit
Iteru [2.4K]
A watering can is used to hold a water that we will use to water the plants. The water has both mass and volume. Two watering cans are most often different by the volume they contain. 

Many various units for volume are used but most often used unit is liter. In a metric system basic units are those such as meter, kilogram and liter while in imperial system units used are those such as foote, inch, pound and gallon.

Unit for volume in metric system is cubic meter. It is equal to a volume of a cube whose all sides measure 1m. This is equal to 1000L. For watering cans that contain several liters units used is decimeter cubed. 1dm^3 = 1L
