Semi-trailer trucks have an odometer on one hub of a trailer wheel. The hub is weighted so that it does not rotate, but it conta

ins gears to count the number of wheel revolutions—it then calculates the distance traveled. If the wheel has a 1.08 m diameter and goes through 300,000 rotations, how many kilometers should the odometer read?.

Answer:

1020 km

Explanation:

A complete rotation of the wheel equals a distance of 1 circumference.

The circumference is

C = \pi d

where <em>d</em> is the diameter of the wheel.

300,000 rotations = 300000\pi d = 300000\times\pi\times1.08\text{ m} = 1017876.0\ldots\text{ m}

In kilometers, this is = 1017876/1000 km = 1020 km

Art [367]
The answer is :  We’ll see the bell move, but we won’t hear it ring.  This is    because light can travel through vacuum but sound cannot.  Sound waves are vibrations of particles in any media, so sound requires a medium to travel, and it cannot travel in a vacuum as there is no particles to vibrate.

Which can make 4 covalent bonds? Carbon, Silicon, or both?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

I would say both

Explanation:

Each silicon atom has four valence electrons which are shared, forming covalent bonds with the four surrounding Si atoms.

Carbon contains four electrons in its outer shell. Therefore, it can form four covalent bonds with other atoms or molecules. The simplest organic carbon molecule is methane (CH4), in which four hydrogen atoms bind to a carbon atom (Figure 1).

Lelechka [254]

The answer is food irradiation. This involves the brief exposure of food to gamma rays or X-rays to kill pathogens that may contribute to food spoilage. This increases the shelf-life of the food. Gamma rays and X-rays emanate from nuclear decay of radioactive materials such as uranium..
