A certain fuel-efficient hybrid car gets gasoline mileage of 55.0 mpg (miles per gallon). (a) If you are driving this car in Eur

ololo11 [35]

We will start by defining the units and their respective equivalences between the proposed measurement systems

$1km = 0.6214mi$

$1gallon = 3.788 litres$

PART A ) The mileage of the car is 55mpg (Miles per gallon)

$55mpg = 55(\frac{miles}{gallon}) (\frac{1km}{0.6214miles})(\frac{1gallon}{3.788L})$

$55mpg = 23.4km/L$

Therefore the mileage of the car is 23.4km/L

PART B ) The mileage of the car means that the car travels 23.4km and consumes 1 liter of fuel. Then

$1L = 23.4km$

For the car to travel 1500km the amount of fuel would be,

$1500km= (1500km)(\frac{1L}{23.4km})$

$1500km = 64.1L$

But 1 gas tank can only hold 45Liters of fuel, then the number of tank required would be

$\text{Number of tanks required} = \frac{64.1L}{45L}$

$\text{Number of tanks required} = 1.4tanks$

Thus the number of tanks of gas required to drive 1500km is 1.4

A 30-m-long rocket train car is traveling from Los Angeles to New York at 0.5c when a light at the center of the car flashes. Wh

Novosadov [1.4K]

Given that,

Distance =30 m

speed = 0.5c

(A). We need to find the bell and siren simultaneous events for a passenger seated in the car

According to given data

The distance travelled by the light to reach either side of the rocket train car is same.

So, The two events are simultaneous and the bell and siren are the simultaneous events for a passenger seated in the car.

(B). We need to calculate time interval between the events

Using formula of time dilation

$\Delta t=\dfrac{\Delta t'}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}$ .....(I)

Where, $\delta t'$ = proper time

$\delta t$ = time interval between the events

The time interval between the events measured in a reference frame

The proper time in this case is

$\Delta t'=\Delta t_{1}-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}$

For the second interval,

Put the value of $\Delta t'$ in the equation (I)

$\Delta t_{2}=\dfrac{\Delta t_{1}-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}$

Put the value in the equation

$\Delta t_{2} = \dfrac{0-\dfrac{0.5c\times30}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{0.5^2c^2}{c^2}}}$

$\Delta t_{2}=\dfrac{-15}{3\times10^{8}\sqrt{1-0.25}}$

$\Delta t_{2}=-5.77\times10^{8}\ s$

Negative sign shows the siren rings before the bell ring.

Hence, (A). Yes, the bell and siren are simultaneous events.

(B). The siren sounds before the bell rings.

How do we maintain heat in our body ?

zysi [14]

Answer:

When heat activates sweat glands, these glands bring that water, along with the body's salt, to the surface of the skin as sweat. Once on the surface, the water evaporates. Water evaporating from the skin cools the body, keeping its temperature in a healthy range.

Explanation:

The system can respond to internal and external influences and make adjustments to keep your body within a degree or two of your normal. The hypothalamus and your autonomic nervous system work with your skin, sweat glands, muscles and even your blood vessels to keep your temperature normal. As in other mammals, thermoregulation is an important aspect of human homeostasis. Most body heat is generated in the deep organs, especially the liver, brain, and heart, and in contraction of skeletal muscles. Some nuts like peanuts, almonds, cashews, pistachios, and dates are also beneficial in winter. These nuts speed up your metabolism and increase your body temperature, eventually making you feel hot.
