In the mid of the 19th century the miasma theory was replaced by the germ theory of diseases (Maia 2013) The Greek physician Hippocrates (c.460- 377 B.C.E) believed that bad air could be the cause of any pestilences, the fatal epidemic.

A classroom is about 3 meters high, 20 meters wide and 30 meters long. If the density of air is 1.29 kg/m3, what is the mass of
Deffense [45]

Answer:

the mass of the air in the classroom = 2322 kg

Explanation:

given:

A classroom is about 3 meters high, 20 meters wide and 30 meters long.

If the density of air is 1.29 kg/m3

find:

what is the mass of the air in the classroom?

density = mass / volume

where mass (m) = 1.29 kg/m³

volume = 3m x 20m x 30m = 1800 m³

plugin values into the formula

  1.29 kg/m³   =  <u>      mass    </u>

                             1800 m³

mass =  1.29 kg/m³  ( 1800 m³ )

mass = 2322 kg

therefore,

the mass of the air in the classroom = 2322 kg

A car of mass 487 kg travels around a flat, circular race track of radius 53.3 m. The coefficient of static friction between the
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

9.96 m/s

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 487 kg

radius of track, R = 53.3 m

coefficient of static friction, μ = 0.19

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

let v be the maximum speed so that the car can go without flying off the track.

The formula for the maximum speed is given by

v_{max}=\sqrt{\mu Rg}

v_{max}=\sqrt{0.19\times53.3\times9.8

vmax = 9.96 m/s
