If the Earth were flat, then ...

-- the sun would never rise;

-- the sun would never set;

-- the sun would look larger and smaller at different times of day;

-- you would be able to see Mt. McKinley, Mt. Everest, Mt. Pinatubo,
and Mt. Kilimanjaro, all from your front yard or your bedroom window;

-- in fact, when the air is clear, you would be able to see the Sears Tower
(here in Chicago) from your front yard or your bedroom window;

-- the shadow of the Earth, falling across the moon, would be some times
circular, some times elliptical, and some times straight, instead of always
circular every time;

-- when you're on the beach, watching a ship sail away from you,
it would just get smaller and smaller and smaller as it got farther
and farther and farther from you; you would never see any of it
disappear, instead of seeing it disappear from the bottom up
the way it actually does.

Lots and lots of other things would also look different and happen
different from the way they actually do look and happen now.

A box-shaped metal can has dimensions 5 in. by 19 in. by 4 in. high. All of the air inside the can is removed with a vacuum pump
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The force is  F  =  1397 lb

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The length of the box is  l  =  19 \ in

    The width of the box is  w =  5 \ in

     The height is  h  =  4\ in

The pressure experience on one of the sides is mathematically represented as

     p = \frac{F}{A}

Where A is the area of the box which is mathematically evaluated as

    A =  l * w

substituting values

     A =  5 *19

      A = 95 \ in^2

This pressure is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure which has a constant value of  p = 14.7 pi

This implies that

        14.7  = \frac{F}{95}

=>   F  =  14.7 *95

=>    F  =  1397 lb

15. A body moving with a velocity of 20 m/s begins to accelerate at 3 m/s2. How far does the body move in 5 seconds? A. 137.5 m
Rudik [331]

Answer is B. According to the equation of motion s = vt + 1/2 at2 Where s is distance covered, v is velocity, a is acceleration and t is time taken. So, by putting all the values, we get s = (20)(5) + 1/2 (3)(5)2 s = 100 + 1/2 (3)(25) s = 100 + 1/2 75 s = 100 + 37.5 s = 137.5 meters
