4% of 110 is 4.4. So the possible range of speeds is the interval from 110-4.4 till 110+4.4.
105.6 till 114.4

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

32 C > 32 F > 32 K

Explanation:

32 F, 32 C, 32 K

Let T1 = 32 F

T2 = 32 C

T3 = 32 K

Convert all the temperatures in degree C

The relation between F and C is given by

(F - 32) / 9 = C / 100

so, (32 - 32) / 9 = C / 100

C = 0

So, T1 = 32 F = 0 C

The relation between c and K is given by

C = K - 273 = 32 - 273 = - 241

So, T3 = 32 K = - 241 C

So, T 1 = 0 C, T2 = 32 c, T3 = - 241 C

Thus, T2 > T1 > T3

32C > 32 F > 32 K

A tin can has a volume of 1100 cm³ and a mass of 80 g. Approximately how many grams of lead shot can it carry without sinking in

Kruka [31]

Answer:

1020g

Explanation:

Volume of can= $1100cm^3=1100\times 10^{-6}m^3$

$1cm^3=10^{-6}m^3$

Mass of can=80g= $\frac{80}{1000}=0.08kg$

1Kg=1000g

Density of lead= $11.4g/cm^3=11.4\times 10^{3}=11400kg/m^3$

By using $1g/cm^3=10^3kg/m^3$

We have to find the mass of lead which shot can it carry without sinking in water.

Before sinking the can and lead inside it they are floating in the water.

Buoyancy force = $F_b=Weight of can+weight of lead$

$\rho_wV_cg=m_cg+m_lg$

Where $\rho_w=10^3kg/m^3=$ Density of water

$m_c=$ Mass of can

$m_l=$ Mass of lead

$V_c=$ Volume of can

Substitute the values then we get

$1000\times 1100\times 10^{-6}=0.08+m_l$

$1.1-0.08=m_l$

$m_l=1.02 kg=1.02\times 1000=1020g$

$1 kg=1000g$

Hence, 1020 grams of lead shot can it carry without sinking water.

The voltage ???? in a simple electrical circuit is slowly decreasing as the battery wears out. The resistance ???? is slowly inc

zimovet [89]

Answer:

The change in current at $R =456 \Omega$ is $\frac{dI}{dt} = 7.032 * 10^{-5} A/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The resistance is $R = 465 \Omega$

The current is $I = 0.09A$

The change in voltage with respect to time is $\frac{dV}{dt} = - 0.03 V/s$

The change in resistance with time is $\frac{dR}{dt} = 0.03 \Omega /s$

According to ohm's law

$V = IR$

differentiating with respect to time using chain rule

$\frac{dV}{dt} = I \frac{dR}{dt} + R * \frac{dI}{dt}$

substituting value at R = 456

$-0.0327 = 0.09 * 0.03 + 456* \frac{dI}{dt}$

$\frac{dI}{dt} = 7.032 * 10^{-5} A/s$
