Do cars get better gas mileage with clean air filters? Gas mileage for 10 cars with dirty air filters and clean air filters was

studied. Each car was tested with a clean air filter and once with a dirty air filter (with the order of the testing randomized). What type of study is this?

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes.

Proper maintenance of cars or any vehicle will add more life to it and increase the quality performance.

If dirty filters of cars is changed, the gas mileage will increase resulting into a better performance of cars.

Dirty air filters reduces the capacity for it to filter the air going into engine. If air filters are not changed for a longer time it results into misfire or trouble starting.

A satellite is orbiting the earth. If a payload of material is added until it doubles the satellite's mass, the earth's pull of
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

When a satellite is orbiting the earth, the centripetal force is balanced by the gravitational force as :

\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}...........(1)

Where

M is the mass of the earth

m is the mass of the planet

From equation (1), the speed of the satellite depends only on the mass of the earth and the orbital radius.

So, If a payload of material is added until it doubles the satellite's mass, the earth's pull of gravity on this satellite will double but the satellite's orbit will not be affected. It is true.

irius, the brightest star in the sky, is 2.6 parsecs (8.6 light-years) from Earth, giving it a parallax of 0.379 arcseconds. Ano
Norma-Jean [14]

The actual distance of Regulus from Earth is 23.81 parsecs.

Given:

Parallax of Regulus, p = 0.042 arc seconds

Calculation:

When an observer changes their position, an apparent change in the object's position takes place. This change can be calculated using the angle ( or semi-angle) made by the observer and object i.e. the angle made between the two lines of observation from the object to the observer.

Thus from the relation of parallax of a celestial body we get:

S = 1/ tan p ≈ 1 / p

where S is the actual distance between the object and the observer

            p is the parallax angle observed

Here for Regulus, we get:

S = 1 / p

  = 1 / (0.042)                                     [ 1 parsecs = 1 arcseconds ]

  = 23.81 parsecs

We know that,

1 parsecs = 3.26 light-years = 206,000 AU

Converting the actual distance into light years we get:

23.81 parsecs = 23.81 × (3.26 light yrs) = 77.658 light-years

Therefore, the actual distance of Regulus from Earth is 23.81 parsecs which is 77.658 in light years.

You have a string with a mass of 0.0133 kg. You stretch the string with a force of 8.89 N, giving it a length of 1.97 m. Then, y
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

(i) The wavelength is 0.985 m

(ii) The frequency of the wave is 36.84 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the string, m = 0.0133 kg

tensional force on the string, T = 8.89 N

length of the string, L = 1.97 m

Velocity of the wave is:

V = \sqrt{\frac{F_T}{M/L} } \\\\V = \sqrt{\frac{8.89}{0.0133/1.97} } \ = 36.29 \ m/s

(i) The wavelength:

Fourth harmonic of a string with two nodes, the wavelength is given as,

L = 2λ

λ = L/2

λ = 1.97 / 2

λ = 0.985 m

(ii) Frequency of the wave is:

v = fλ

f = v / λ

f = 36.29 / 0.985

f = 36.84 Hz
