The local high school is installing new bleachers at the stadium and must also add handrails to meet code. The students know the
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The handrails must be approximately 10.63 meters long

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The height of the bleachers, h = 8 m

The depth of the bleachers, d = 7 m

The length of the hand rails to go along the bleachers from bottom to top is given by Pythagoras' Theorem as follows;

The length of the hand rail = √(d² + h²)

∴ The length of the hand rail = √(7² + 8²) = √113 ≈ 10.63

In order for the handrails to go along the bleachers from top to bottom, they must be approximately 10.63 meters long.

4. An electric iron has a
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

4.

a) W = 750 J

b) W = 2250 J

c) t = 2 sec

5. Answered in explanation

Explanation:

4.

The formula of power is given as:

P = W/t

where,

P = Power

W = Work Done

t = Time Taken

a)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 1 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/1 sec

<u>W = 750 J</u>

b)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = 3 sec

W = ?

Therefore,

750 W = W/3 sec

W = (750 W)(3 sec)

<u>W = 2250 J</u>

c)

Here,

P = 750 W

t = ?

W = 1500 J

Therefore,

750 W = 1500 J/t

t = 1500 J/750 W

<u>t = 2 sec</u>

<u></u>

According to Kinetic Particle Theory, the molecules are tightly packed with each other, by strong inter-molecular forces and they can only vibrate at their position. While, molecules or particles in liquids have lesser attractive forces among them. They can move in layers and can take the shape of any container. <u>This is the reason why solid has a definite shape and liquid has none.</u>

Estimate the volume of a typical house (2050 feet squared in size and 10 feet tall) answer in units of meters squared
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Volume = 6248.48 m^{3}

Explanation:

Given:

The area of the house A = 2050\ ft^{2}

The height of the house h=10\ ft

We need to find the volume of a typical house.

Solution:

We find the volume of the house by multiplying the area of the house and height of the house.

Volume = Area\times height

Volume = A\times h

Area and height of the house are known, so we substitute these value in above equation.

Volume = 2050\times 10

Volume = 20500\ ft^{3}

Now we convert the unit from feet to meter.

Divide the volume by 3.2808 for m^{3}

Volume = \frac{20500}{3.2808}

Volume = 6248.48\ m^{3}

Therefore, the volume of the house is 6248.48 m^{3}

Calculate the pressure on the ground from an 80 kg woman leaning on the back of one of her shoes with a 1cm diameter heel, and c
rodikova [14]

Answer:

Pressure of woman will be 99.87\times 10^5N/m^2

Pressure of the elephant will be 1716560.50N/m^2

Explanation:

We have given that mass of the woman m = 80 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Diameter of shoes = 1 cm =0.01 m

So radius r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.01}{2}=0.005m

So area A=\pi r^2=3.14\times 0.005^2=7.85\times 10^{-5}m^2

We know that force is given  F = mg

So F=80\times 9.8=784N

Now we know that pressure is given by P=\frac{F}{A}=\frac{784}{7.85\times 10^{-5}}=99.87\times 10^5N/m^2

Now mass of elephant m = 5500 kg

So force of elephant = 5500×9.8 = 53900 N

Diameter = 20 cm

So radius r = 10 cm

So area will be A=3.14\times 0.1^2=0.0314m^2

So pressure will be P=\frac{53900}{0.0314}=1716560.50N/m^2
