Number of barrels are 3.0. Each barrel contains 42 gallons of oil. Thus, total volume of oil will be 42×3=126 gallons.
Converting gallons into m^{3}
1 gallon=0.00378 m^{3}
Thus, 126 gallons=0.4769 m^{3}
Thickness of oil film is 2.5\times 10^{2} nm, converting it into meters as follows:
1 nm=10^{-9} m
Thus,
2.5\times 10^{2} nm=1.5\times 10^{-7}m
Now, volume V of oil is related to area A and thickness T as follows:
V=A×T
rearranging,
A=\frac{V}{T}=\frac{0.4769 m^{3}}{2\times 10^{-7}m}=2.38\times 10^{6}m^{2}
Thus, square meters of oil will be 2.38\times 10^{6}m^{2}
An eclipse is a phenomenon of an astronomical object being obscured by something. In this case, it is the Moon that is being obscured from sunlight by Earth's shadow. Answer is D.
Answer:
According to our principle, when an object is slowing down, the acceleration is in the opposite direction as the velocity. Thus, this object has a negative acceleration. In Example D, the object is moving in the negative direction (i.e., has a negative velocity) and is speeding up.
The floating of ice helps keep the ocean warm because it keeps the ice at the top of the ocean in certain places. But it also helps aquatic life keep in there Necessary environmental conditions.
