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

Edit: You do mean Ridge?

Rocks near Mid-Ocean Ridge are younger than rocks near the trenches.

Seismic data shows oceanic crust is sinking into the mantle at the trenches.

Matching bands of magnetic rock are found on either side of the Ridge. Earth's magnetic fields change these bands over time.

A 55 kg skater at rest on a frictionless rink throws a 3 kg ball, giving the ball a velocity of 8 m/s. What is the velocity of t
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The velocity will be v1 = 0.58[m/s]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by the law of conservation of the moment, which explains that the moment of a system remains constant because there are no external forces acting on it.

We have the following initial data:

m1 = mass of the skater = 55 [kg]

m2 = mass of the ball = 3 [kg]

v2 = velocity of the ball = 8 [m/s]

Therefore:

m_{1}*v_{1}+m_{2}*v_{2}=m_{1}*v_{1}+m_{2}*v_{2}\\(50*0)+(3*0)=(50*v_{1})+(3*8)\\50+3-24=50*v_{1}\\v_{1}= 0.58[m/s]

Hi everyone, I need help on the question: Why are humans the most dangerous creatures in the ocean
kozerog [31]

HUMAN ACTIVITIES ARE threatening the health of the world's oceans. More than 80 percent of marine pollution comes from land-based activities. From coral bleaching to sea level rise, entire marine ecosystems are rapidly changing.

Global warming is causing sea levels to rise, threatening coastal population centers. Many pesticides and nutrients used in agriculture end up in the coastal waters, resulting in oxygen depletion that kills marine plants and shellfish. Factories and industrial plants discharge sewage and other runoff into the oceans. Oil spills pollute the oceans, though U.S. water-sewage treatment plants discharge twice as much oil each year as tanker spills. Air pollution is responsible for almost one-third of the toxic contaminants and nutrients that enter coastal areas and oceans. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that 31.4 percent of fish stocks are either fished to capacity or over-fished.
