Answer:

Boats use gasoline and gasoline creates fumes that are heavier than air. They could explode if enclosed areas. These fumes settle to the bottom of the bilge and they may explode, so for safety reasons the owner should always ventilate the boat to avoid sudden explosions.

If you don't ventilate your boat after fueling, the gas fumes will stay in the bottom of boat and this is very dangerous.
Explosion can happen if you don't ventilate your boat after fueling so to avoid any explosion or any problem, you have to follow the proper procedure for fueling the boat.
So always ventilate your boat after fueling.

You toss a ball straight up with an initial speed of 30m/s. How high does it go, and how long is it in the air (neglecting air r

Brut [27]

Explanation:

Given that,

A ball is tossed straight up with an initial speed of 30 m/s

We need to find the height it will go and the time it takes in the air.

At its maximum height, its final speed, v = 0 and it will move under the action of gravity. Using equation of motion :

v = u +at

Here, a = -g

v = u -gt

i.e. u = gt

$t=\dfrac{u}{g}\\\\t=\dfrac{30\ m/s}{9.8\ m/s^2}\\\\t=3.06\ s$

So, the time for upward motion is 3.06 seconds. It means that it will in air for 3.06×2 = 6.12 seconds

Let d is the maximum distance covered by it.

$d=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Putting all values

$d=30(3.06)-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (3.06)^2\\\\d=45.91\ m$

Hence, it will go to a height of 45.91 m and it will in the air for 6.12 seconds.

Given that water at standard pressure freezes at 0∘c, which corresponds to 32∘f, and that it boils at 100∘c, which corresponds t

Zolol [24]

The temperature difference of 1 K is equivalent to the temperature difference of 1 °C. Therefore, we find the relationship between the change in °F and °C.
A change of 212 - 32 °F is the same as a change of 100 - 0 °C. Thus:
(212 - 32) °F = (100 - 0) °C
1 °C = 1.8 °F
1 K = 1.8 °F
