Octane is an important component of gasoline. Octane will ignite at a temperature of 428°F. What is this temperature on the Cels

The requirement is to change the °F to °C scale. That is;

T(°C) = [T(°F) - 32]/1.8

Substituting;

T(°C) = [428 - 32]/1.8 = 396/1.8 = 220 °C.

Therefore, 428°F will be 220°C on Celsius scale.

A dog in an open field runs 11.0 m east and then 28.0 m in a direction 49.0 ∘ west of north. In what direction must the dog then
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

\theta=19.03 SE

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

d_1=11.0m East

d_2=28.0m 49 \textdegree west\ north

d_3=10m south

Generally the equation for Resolutions is mathematically given by

d_x=-11-(-28sin49)

d_x=10.132m

Where

d_y=-11-(28cos49)

d_y=-29.37m

Generally the equation for Direction is mathematically given by

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{dx}{dy})

\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{10.132}{29.37})

\theta=19.03 SE

8. An unpowered flywheel is slowed by a constant frictional torque. At time t = 0 it has an angular velocity of 200 rad/s. Ten s
allsm [11]

Answer:

a) \omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}, b) \omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The magnitude of torque is a form of moment, that is, a product of force and lever arm (distance), and force is the product of mass and acceleration for rotating systems with constant mass. That is:

\tau = F \cdot r

\tau = m\cdot a \cdot r

\tau = m \cdot \alpha \cdot r^{2}

Where \alpha is the angular acceleration, which is constant as torque is constant. Angular deceleration experimented by the unpowered flywheel is:

\alpha = \frac{170\,\frac{rad}{s} - 200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{10\,s}

\alpha = -3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}

Now, angular velocities of the unpowered flywheel at 50 seconds and 100 seconds are, respectively:

a) t = 50 s.

\omega = 200\,\frac{rad}{s} - \left(3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right) \cdot (50\,s)

\omega = 50\,\frac{rad}{s}

b) t = 100 s.

Given that friction is of reactive nature. Frictional torque works on the unpowered flywheel until angular velocity is reduced to zero, whose instant is:

t = \frac{0\,\frac{rad}{s}-200\,\frac{rad}{s} }{\left(-3\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}} \right)}

t = 66.667\,s

Since t > 66.667\,s, then the angular velocity is equal to zero. Therefore:

\omega = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}

Write a hypothesis about the effect of the wavelength on the diffraction angle. Use the "if . . . then . . . because . . ." form
adell [148]
A) Wavelength is the distance between two successful crests or troughs in a transverse wave or the distance between two successful compressions or rarefactions in a longitudinal wave. if the wavelength of a wave is long then the wave will diffracts more compared to a wave with a shorter wavelength because the size of the wavelength is proportional to the angle of diffraction. Such that if the gap is larger than the wavelength then the wave passes through the gap and does not spread much on the other side, while when the gap size is equal to the wavelength, maximum diffraction occurs and the waves spread greatly out.

b) Diffraction is a phenomenon that occurs when a wave encounters an obstacles or a slit. It is referred to as the bending of light around corners of an obstacles or aperture into the region of geometrical shadow of the obstacle. It is caused by one wave of light is shifted by the diffracting object which will in turn cause the wave to have interference with itself. (either constructive or destructive)

How does the width of the floodplain change over time?
serg [7]
Floodplains are landscapes shaped by running water. As streams and their larger forms, rivers, flow across the surface of land, they transport eroded rock and other material. (Erosion is the gradual wearing away of Earth surfaces through the action of wind and water.) At points along that journey, when their flow slows, the material they carry is dropped to create what are termed depositional landforms. Among these landforms are deltas and floodplains.
