Convert 400 mm to m using the method of dimensional analysis

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

To convert 400 mm to m you can apply the formula [m] = [mm] / 1000; use 400 for mm. Thus, the conversion 400 mm m is the result of dividing 400 by 1000. 0.4

In major league baseball, the pitcher's mound is 60 feet from the batter. If a pitcher throws a 85 mph fastball, how much time e

Nostrana [21]

The given from your problem are the following:
V = 85mph (This is miles per hour)
d = 60 feet

If you notice the units do not match. Before we can do anything else, we need to make the figures match.

In this case, we will convert 85miles per hour to feet per hour. There are 5,280 feet in 1 mile.
$\frac{85miles }{hr}$ x $\frac{5,280feet}{1miles} = \frac{448,800feet}{hr}$

But wait! If you think about the scenario, you are looking for how long it will take for the ball to reach the bat. The most applicable unit of time to use here is second. It would be very hard to really measure a short and instantaneous event in hours. So we convert it into feet per second:

There are 3,600 seconds in 1 hour.

$\frac{448,800feet }{hour}$ x $\frac{1hour}{3,600seconds} = \frac{448,800feet}{3,600 seconds} = 124.67ft/s$

So now we have our new given as:

v = 124.67ft/s
d = 60 ft

The formula for time can be derived from the formula from velocity, which is:
$velocity = \frac{distance}{time}$

The formula of time will then be:
$time= \frac{distance}{velocity}$

All you need to do is plug in what you know and solve for what you don't know.

$time= \frac{60feet}{124.67ft/s}$

$time= 0.48s$

The answer then is 0.48s.

If you want this in hours, just divide the value in seconds by 3,600. The answer would then be 0.00013hr. (See how small it is? This is why seconds would be a more appropriate measure.)

Why are TV shows nowadays so boring?

Anna [14]

The answer is a matter of opinion, and you're going to get different answers
from different people. Here's my take on it:

The writers, producers and advertising sponsors of these shows certainly
don't think they're boring. And definitely neither do the TV networks that
decide which ones to broadcast.

I'm not trying to say "The experts don't think they're boring, so you must
be wrong". I'm trying to say that different people have different opinions
about the same shows, and in your case, you find them boring.

My conclusion is this:
I think you're finding TV shows boring nowadays because you're growing
as a person. You've grown, developed, and matured to the point where
you're above the level of audience that the shows are pitched for. That's
a very good thing !

You're sad because you used to get pleasure and entertainment from TV,
and now it doesn't give you those things. That's like losing an old friend,
that you used to have such fun playing with, but he just doesn't do it for
you any more.

Now that you've grown up, you've made new friends. With them, you do
things that you wouldn't even understand with your younger friends. And
you develop new interests, like ... I don't know ... books, movies, hobbies,
your church, your profession, learning new things, developing new skills,
exercising your brain, writing, volunteer work, ham radio, building fine
furniture, singing, learning to write music, raising tropical plants, sculpture,
politics ... whatever turns you on. Some people never grow past the stage
where staring at the tube is all they need in life, because they don't have
what it takes to be interested in anything else. Those are the people that
TV is aimed at. But you have more, and that's why TV isn't enough for you.

There are other possible reasons why TV bores you. But until I know more
about you, I think it's a very, very good sign.
