Given parameters:

Fraction given to charity = $\frac{1}{3}$

Fraction given to wife = $\frac{2}{3}$

Unknown:

Fraction given to son and daughter =?

Solution:

Let the total property = x

Fraction given to charity = $\frac{1}{3} x$

Fraction given to wife = $\frac{2}{3} x$

The remaining was given to son and daughter = F

So;

Total property = fraction given to charity + fraction given to wife + fraction given to son and daughter

x = $\frac{1}{3} x + \frac{2}{3} x + F$

F = x - ( $\frac{1}{3} x + \frac{2}{3} x$ )

F = 0

The son and daughter will not inherit anything

A clock is constructed so that it keeps perfect time when its simple pendulum has a period of 1.000 s at locations where g 5 9.8

mafiozo [28]

Answer

Given,

Period of the Pendulum, T= 1 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

Length of Bob = 0.2482 m

Loss of time in the clock = 1.5 minutes/ day

Loss of time in 1 oscillation

= $\dfrac{1.5\times 60}{24\times 60\times 60}$

= 0.001042

Hence, time period, T = 1 + 0.001042

T = 1.001042 s

a) Using Time period of oscillation formula

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L}{g}}$

$1.001402 = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{0.2482}{g'}}$

$g' = 9.77\ m/s^2$

Free fall acceleration at the clock location = 9.77 m/s²

b) Length of pendulum bob to keep it perfect time

$1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L}{g}}$

$1 = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{L'}{9.77}}$

$L' = 0.2475\ m$

Hence, Length of pendulum bob is equal to 0.2475 m.

The width of a rectangle is 1 units less than the length. The area of the rectangle is 72 units. What is the width, in units, of

nalin [4]

A = l × w. Substitute 72 into A and fill in the rest of the equation.

w = l - 1. Plug l - 1 into w

72 = l × (l - 1). Multiply l by (l - 1)

72 = l^2 - l. Subtract 72 from each side.

0 = l^2 - l - 72. Factor.

0 = (l + 8) (l - 9). Set each term equal to zero.

(l + 8) = 0. Subtract 8 from each side.

l = -8. Length cant be a negative number so let's try the other term.

(l - 9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.

l = 9. The length is 9.

Earlier we stated that the width is one less than the length, therefore, the width is 9 - 1 = 8.

The width is 8 units.

A car is traveling at a steady speed. It travels 2 1/2

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

It will travel

$33 \frac{1}{4} \: miles$

in 45 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve using proportions.

$\frac{ 2\frac{1}{2} \: miles}{ 3\frac{1}{3} \: minutes} = \frac{x}{45 \: minutes} \\ \\ \frac{ 3\frac{1}{3} x}{ 3\frac{1}{3} } = \frac{ 112\frac{1}{2} }{ 3\frac{1}{3} } \\ \\ x = 33\frac{3}{4}$

Seattle, WA and San Francisco, CA lie on the same longitudinal line. San Francisco is at 38° latitude and Seattle is at 47° lati

Helen [10]

Step 1.

Calculate measure of angle α:

$47^o-38^o=9^o$

Step 2.

Calculate what fraction of the angle 360° is the angle α:

$\dfrac{9^o}{360^o}=\dfrac{1}{40}$

Step 3.

Calculate the circumference of the Earth (circle):

$C=2\pi r\to C=2\pi\cdot4000=8000\pi\ mi$

Step 4.

The length of arc is equal 1/40 of the circumference:

$\dfrac{1}{40}C=\dfrac{1}{40}\cdot8000\pi=200\pi\ mi$

$\pi\approx3.14\to\dfrac{1}{40}C\approx200\cdot3.14=628\ mi$

<h3>Answer: A) 628 miles</h3>
