Answer:
a. 313.171081 miles/hour
b. 0.434m

To calculate the speed in miles per hour, you need to change meterinto miles (1m= 0.086992mile) , then second into hour(1s= 1/3600h). The calculation would be:
140 m/s x 0.086992mile/m : 1/3600 s/hour= 313.171081 miles/hour.

To calculate the next question you need to know that mili second= 1/1000 second. Then the calculation would be:
140m/s x 3.1ms x 1/1000= 0.434m

Glycerin is poured into an open U-shaped tube until the height in both sides is 20cm. Ethyl alcohol is then poured into one arm
Liula [17]

Answer:

7.5 cm

Explanation:

In the figure we can see a sketch of the problem. We know that at the bottom of the U-shaped tube the pressure is equal in both branches. Defining \rho_A: Ethyl alcohol density and \rho_G: Glycerin density , we can write:

\rho_A\times g \times h_1 + \rho_G \times g \times h_2 = \rho_G \times g \times h_3

Simplifying:

\rho_A\times h_1 = \rho_G \times (h_3 - h_2) (1)

On the other hand:

h_1 + h_2 = \Delta h + h_3

Rearranging:

h_1 - \Delta h = h_3 - h_2 (2)

Replacing  (2) in (1):

\rho_A\times h_1 = \rho_G \times (h_1 - \Delta h)

Rearranging:

\frac{h_1 \times (\rho_A - \rho_G)}{- \rho_G} = \Delta h

Data:

h_1 = 20 cm; \rho_A = 0.789 \frac{g}{cm^3}; \rho_G = 1.26 \frac{g}{cm^3}

\frac{20 cm \times (0.789 - 1.26) \frac{g}{cm^3}}{- 1.26\frac{g}{cm^3}}  = \Delta h

7.5 cm =  \Delta h

A person skateboarding is part of a closed system that has 1,450 j of
soldier1979 [14.2K]

The gravitational potential energy of the system will decreases from 1,250 J to 625 J. Option A is corect.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but it can be transferred from one form to another.

The total energy is the sum of all the energies present in the system. The potential energy in a system is due to its position in the system.

TE=KE+GPE

Case 1;

1450 = 200 J+GPE

GPE=1450 -200

GPE=1250 J

Case 2;

1450 = 825 J+GPE

GPE=1450 -825

GPE=625 J

The gravitational potential energy of the system will decreases from 1,250 J to 625 J.

Hence, option A is corect.
