A european car manufacturer reports that the fuel efficiency of the new microcar is 28.5 km/l highway and 22.0 km/l city. what a

re the equivalent fuel efficiency rates in miles per gal?]
Physics
1 answer:
Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago
4 0

We know that:

1 mile = 1.61 km

1 gal = 3.8 L

 

Therefore converting the fuel efficiency rates:

highway = (28.5 km/L) * (1 mile / 1.61 km) * (3.8 L / 1 gal) = 67.27 mile / gal

<span>city = (22.0 km/L) * (1 mile / 1.61 km) * (3.8 L / 1 gal) = 51.93 mile / gal</span>

scoray [572]
The correct option is B.
A water shed refers to an area of land which serves as channel for rainfall and supply other bodies of water connected with it with water. The amount of water in the watershed determines the quantity of water that will be passed to the water bodies that are connected to the watershed.
A model is usually made in order to use it to forecast or predict a certain thing. A watershed model can be used to predict the amount of floods and drought at a particular location.<span />

A person absentmindedly walks off the edge of a tall cliff. They will fall 50 m into either
kifflom [539]

The man can survive, and he lands 12.1 m from the base of the cliff (into the lake)

Explanation:

The motion of the person is equivalent to the motion of a projectile, which consists of two separate motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction

We start by analyzing the vertical motion, to find the time it take for the person to reach the ground level. We can use the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s = 50 m is the vertical distance covered (the height of the cliff)

u = 0 is the initial vertical velocity

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

t is the time of flight

Solving for t,

t=\sqrt{\frac{2s}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(50)}{9.8}}=3.19 s

The person moved horizontally at a constant speed of

v_x = 3.8 m/s

So, the horizontal distance covered by the man during his flight will be

d_x = v_x t = (3.8)(3.19)=12.1 m

So, the man will land on the lake (which starts from 12 m), so he can survive.

A uniform electric field exists in the region between two oppositely charged plane-parallel plates. An electron is released from
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Explanation:

  • given S = distance from the first = 3.20cm = 0.032m, t = 1.30×10−8 s
  • q = 1.6 x 10_19C
  • using S = at^2/2
  • acceleration = 0.032 X 2 /(1.30×10−8)^2

a = 3.79 x 10^14m/s^2

  • From F = ma
  • F = qE
  • ma = qE

E = ma /q = 9.11 x 10^-31 x 3.79 x 10^14 / 1.6 x 10^-19

E = magnitude of this electric field. = 2156.3N/C

b) Find the speed of the electron when it strikes the second plate ; V^2 = 2as

= 2 X 3.79 x 10^14 X 0.032

= 4.92 X 10^6m/s

Which statement describes why scientific notation is useful? It makes very small numbers into whole numbers. It converts fractio
disa [49]

It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier.

Scientific notation is a system used in order to It makes calculations with very large and small numbers easier. It is useful as it allows very large number that would take a lot of space to write otherwise, and it allows them to be calculated easier. 10^{23} for example is a incredible large number, but written in this form is immediately understandable and useful for calculation.
