Referring to the given diagram, we will find that the percentage of sand in silt is given on the base of the triangle.
The amount of sand is almost 50% of silt. Representing this on the percentage line, we will find that the percentage of sand is somewhere between the 40% and the 60%.

Based on the above, the best choice would be:
c. 40 percent to 60 percent

Which term describes the number of thoughs that pass a point in a given amount of time

NeX [460]

The term that describes the number of thoughs that pass a point in a given amount of time is FREQUENCY.

In wave theory, frequency refers to the number of wave that pass through a fixed point in a given amount of time. Frequency is usually measure in Hertz. The mathematical formula for finding frequency is:

F = Velocity of wave / wavelength of wave.

Do you think an observer on another planet in the solar system might see eclipses

artcher [175]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Eclipses: Eclipses are also known as game of shadows where one object comes between the star(light source) and another object in a straight line such that the shadow of one object falls on other object. This can occur when the apparent size of the star and the object is almost same.

Talking about the Earth, the geometry is such that the Moon and the Sun are of same apparent size as seen from the Earth. Thus Lunar and Solar eclipse can be seen from the Earth. If we were to go on any other planet the same phenomenon can be seen provided the apparent size of moon and the Sun from that planet is same.

We have seen and recorded many such eclipses on Jupiter. These are from the perspective of Earth. When the moons of Jupiter comes exactly between the Sun and Jupiter the shadow of moon will fall on Jupiter. The places where the shadow falls, one will see a solar eclipse.

A student of weight 652 N rides a steadily rotating Ferris wheel (the student sits upright). At the highest point, the magnitude

miskamm [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of person $W=652\ N$

At highest point Magnitude of the normal force $F=585\ N$

net force at highest point

$F_{net}=W+F_c$

where $F_c=$ centripetal force

$F_c=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$F_{net}=F_{n}=$ Normal Force

$585=652+F_c$

$F_c=-67\ N$

Negative sign shows force is in upward direction

At bottom point centripetal force is towards the bottom

$F_n=F_c+W$

$F_n=652+67$

$F_n=719\ N$

A solid yellow stripe is to be painted in the middle of a certain highway. If 1 gallon of paint covers an area of p square feet

marin [14]

Answer:

option A is correct

Explanation:

Given:

The length to be painted = m miles

The width to be painted = t inches

Area painted in 1 gallon = p square feet

Converting the every given dimension in feet, we have

length to be painted = m × 5280 feet

width to be painted = t/12 feet

area to be painted = (m × 5280 feet) × t/12 feet

now, applying the unitary method, we have

p square feet is painted ⇒ 1 gallon

1 square feet is painted ⇒ 1/p gallon

(m × 5280 feet) × t/12 feet square feet is painted ⇒ [(m × 5280 feet) × t/12 feet ] × 1/p gallon

thus, we get the gallons of paint required as 5820 mt/12p

hence option A is correct

Car A, moving in a straight line at a constant speed of 20. meters per second, is initially 200 meters behind car B, moving in t

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

First, let's express the movement of Car A and B in terms of their position over time (relative to car B)
For car A: y=20x-200 Car A moves 20 meters every second x, and starts 200 meters behind car B
For Car B: y= 15x Car B moves 15 meters every second and starts at our basis point

Set the two equations equal to one another to find the time x at which they meet:
20x - 200 = 15x
200 = 5x
x= 40
At time x=40 seconds, the cars meet. How far will Car A have traveled at this time?
Car A moves 20 meters every second:
20 x 40 = 800 meters
