A big part of the reason that mirrors are seldom if ever used to generate
electricity is the simple fact that there is no way to generate electricity using
mirrors. They are as useless for the purpose as smoke is, although there are
those who have used both items simultaneously to create the impression that
they have succeeded in that attempt.

Is this true or false ethics deals with morals and values and can be measured and tested using the scientific method.

sammy [17]

This is false. Even though the first part is true, the second isn't because morals and values are simply widely accepted opinions that most humans have, and you can't test opinions with the scientific method, only facts!

A tire measures 20 inches in diameter. How many revolutions will the tire have completed when it has traveled 100 yards? Express

Soloha48 [4]

<h2>Number of revolutions required to travel 100 yards is 57.</h2>

Explanation:

Diameter of tire,D = 20 inches

Perimeter of tire = πD

Perimeter of tire = π x 20 = 62.8 inches

Distance traveled = 100 yards

1 yard = 36 inches

Distance traveled = 100 x 36 = 3600 inches

In one revolution it travels 62.8 inches.

$\texttt{No of revolutions = }\frac{3600}{62.8}\\\\\texttt{No of revolutions = }57.32\\\\\texttt{No of revolutions = }57$

Number of revolutions required to travel 100 yards is 57.
