Ben franklin showed that 1 teaspoon of oil would cover about 0.50 acre of still water. if you know that 1.0 x 104m2 = 2.47 acres

, and that there are 5.0 cm3 in a teaspoon, what is the thickness (in cm) of a later of oil?

To solve for the thickness of the latter of oil, we can simply divide the volume by the total surface area:

Thickness = Volume / Surface Area

We are both given the volume and the surface area, all we have to do now is to convert the units in like terms so that we can cancel those out.

Surface Area = 0.50 acres (1.0 x 10^4 m^2 / 2.47 acres)

Surface Area = 2,024.29 m^2

Further converting this into cm:

Surface Area = 2,024.29 m^2 (100 cm / m)^2

Surface Area = 20,242,914.98 cm^2

 

Therefore the thickness is:

Thickness = 5.0 cm^3 / 20,242,914.98 cm^2

Thickness = 2.47 x 10^-7 cm

or

<span>Thickness = 2.47 x 10^-9 m = 2.47 nm = 24.7 A</span>

Why is the weight of the ruler not include in the calculation of moment?​
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Since the distance between the pivot and its weight is zero, the moment of its weight about the pivot (= weight × 0) is zero. Hence, the weight of the ruler can be ignored.

Hope this helps:)

gravity is a force between any two objects with mass. why doesn't a person feel a gravitational force between him/herself and an
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

c)the gravitational forces of people is so small it is overshadowed by that of earth.

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by:

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the distance between the two objects

From the formula, we see that the gravitational force depends on the masses of the objects: since the mass of the Earth (5.97\cdot 10^{24} kg is much much larger than the average mass of one person (80-100 kg), then the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on a person is also much much larger than the gravitational force between two people.
