There are 1600 metres in 1 mile, so 10095÷1600= 6.3 miles/s

The equivalent of 10095 m/s is 6.2728 mi/s.

Further Explanation

To get the answer to this problem we use the conversion factor for meters to miles: 1609.34 m = 1 mi.

Setting up the dimensional analysis:

speed \ = 10095 \frac{m}{s} \times \frac{1 \ mi}{1609.34 \ m}\\

We put the number of meters in the numerator so that the unit (meter) may be cancelled.

By multiplying the given by the number of meters in mile, we arrive at the answer:

\boxed {\boxed {speed = 6.2728 \ \frac{mi}{s}}}

Since the given has 5 significant figures, the final answer must also have five significant figures.

Additional Example:

Sometimes the problem requires the conversion of both numerator and denominator. Below is a worked example for these kinds of question.

<em>The conversion factor relating miles to meters is 1mile=1610m. The speed of light is 3.00×108 m/s. How fast is this in miles per hour (miles/h)?</em>

The problem gives the conversion factor for miles to meter:

1 mi =1610 m

To convert the speed of light into the desired unit the following steps must be carried out:

  1. Convert meters to miles.
  2. Convert seconds to hours.

These conversion may be done individually or simultaneously in a single dimensional analysis equation. The equation below shows the simultaneous conversion in one equation:

speed \ of \ light = 3.00 \times 10^8 \ \frac{m}{s} \times \frac{1 \ mi}{1610 \ m} \times \frac{60 \ s}{1 \ min} \times \frac{60 \ min}{1 \ h}\\\\\boxed {speed \ of \ light = 6.71 \times 10^8 \ \frac{mi}{h}}

Since the answer must be expressed with only 3 significant figures, the final answer is:

Randy has 53 inches of ribbon that he cuts into 8 pieces of equal length. What is the length of each piece of ribbon, in inches?
maw [93]

Answer:

6.625 inches or 6 5/8 inches

and the drop down hopefully will let you choose "between 6 and 7 inches"

Step-by-step explanation:

53/8 = 6.625

0.625 = 5/8

Let me know if you have questions about this. Have a good night.

to angie's ladder was 22 feet tall above the ground lying against the wall of her house.the base of the ladder was 5 feet tall.w
Talja [164]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so attached is a diagram of the triangle we are solving. Because buildings are almost always perpendicular (90 degrees) to the ground, it is a right triangle.

You can now use the pythagorean theorem with the sides to fill in the other side:


a^2+ b^2= c^2

5^2 + b^2= 22^2

25+b^2=484

b^2= 459

b=21.42


Okay, so for slope you need 2 points- think of the wall as your y axis, and the ground as your x axis. The ladder is the line.

Your first point is (-5,0) because the bottom of the ladder is touching the ground (no y movement) and the bottom of the ladder is 5 feet from the base of the wall and ground (origin).

The second point is going to be (0, 21.42) because that is the height of the wall where the ladder is touching (x is at origin). The 21.42 is positive, because you can't have negative height.

Okay so far? :)

(-5,0) and (0, 21.42)

(x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

slope= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

slope= (21.42-0)/ (0-(-5)) ---- becomes positive

slope= 4.284

(Note: slope could also be negative if you put the ladder on the other side of the wall- 5 would become positive... google "positive vs negative slopes" for more info)


Hopefully that answers your question!
