What is the area of 12 1/2 and 17 1/5

1 answer:

3 0

215

I am assuming that those are the width and length. So to find area all you have to do is multiply the two because lw = a. 12 1/2*17 1/5 = 215

25/2*86/5 = 2150/10 = 215

A helium-filled balloon occupies a volume of 15 cubic meters at sea level. the balloon is released and raises to a point in the

Elena L [17]

According to Boyle’s law, For a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, P (pressure) and V (volume) are inversely proportional.

Therefore,

$P_{1} V_{1} =P_{2} V_{2}$

Given $P_{1} = 1 atm$ , $V_{1} = 15 \ cubic \ meter$ and $P_{2} = 0.75\ atm$ .

Thus,

$V_{2} = \frac{P_{1}\times V_{1} }{ P_{2} } = \frac{1\times 15}{0.75} =20 m^3$

At a given time of day, the ratio of the height of an object to the length of its shadow is the same for all objects. If a 4-f

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:35.2 ft

Explanation:

Given

height of stick =4 ft

shadow length =2.8 ft

Angle of elevation of sun is

$tan\theta =\frac{4}{2.8}$

let the height of tree be h

as $\theta$ will remain same thus

$tan\theta =\frac{h}{24.64}$

$\frac{4}{2.8}=\frac{h}{24.64}$

h=35.2 ft

Select all that apply. Which of the following are characteristics of acids? contain hydroxide ion or produce it in a solution ta

julia-pushkina [17]

These are the characteristics that apply:

- In a solution taste sour: which is consequence of the H+ concentration.

- Corrode metals: the H+ ion reacts with the metal producing a salt and water

-Produce hydronium ion in solution: as per the Bronsted - Lowry definition an acid is a substance that donates a proton, H+. This proton will react with H2O to form H3O+ (hydronium), as per this scheme:

HA + H2O --> A(-) + H3O(+)

An open train car moves with speed 18.5 m/s on a flat frictionless railroad track, with no engine pulling the car. It begins to

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

The speed decreases.

Explanation:

This can be explained using the conservation of linear momentum.

Since there is no friction, the initial moment of the train must be equal to its linear moment after it is filled with water.

the initial linear momentum is

$m_{1}v_{1}$

where $m_{1}$ is the initial mass of the train, and $v_{1}$ the initial speed of the train.

And linear momentum after the water filled the train car is

$m_{2}v_{2}$

where $m_{2}$ is mass of the train after the rain, and $v_{2}$ the speed of the train after the rain

<u>the equality must be fulfilled:</u>

$m_{1}v_{1}=m_{2}v_{2}$

We know that if water is added to the train, $m_{2}$ that is the mass after the water is added, is greater than $m_{1}$ which is the mass of the train without the water.

Therefore, in order for the conservation of the linear momentum to be fulfilled: $m_{1}v_{1}=m_{2}v_{2}$

the speed after the water is added ( $v_{2}$ ) must be smaller than the initial train speed ( $v_{1}$ ) . So the speed of the car decreases.
