A supersonic aircraft consumes 5320 imperial gallons of kerosene per hour of flight and flies an average of 14 hours per day. it

takes roughly seven tons of crude oil to produce one ton of kerosene. the density of kerosene is 0 965 g/cm . how many planes would it take to consume the entire annual world production of 4 02 10 metric tons of crude oil?

5320*14= 74480 gallons. <span>
First let us convert gallons to cm^3 and we get 2.819374858x10^8 cm^3. 
We then multiply with density and then times 1000 to get it in terms of tons. 
Then multiply the number by 7 to get how many tons of crude oil a single plane uses in 14 hrs. 
Finally divide this by the production of crude oil.

When we apply the energy conversation principle to a cylinder rolling down an incline without sliding, we exclude the work done
NikAS [45]

Answer:

D. the linear velocity of the point of contact (relative to the inclined surface) is zero

Explanation:

The force of friction emerges only when there is relative velocity between two objects . In case of perfect rolling , there is no sliding so relative velocity between the surface and the point of contact is zero . In other words the velocity of point of contact becomes zero , even though , the whole body is in linear motion . It happens due  point of contact having two velocities which are equal and opposite . One of the velocity is in forward direction and the other velocity which is due to rotation is in backward direction . So net velocity of point of contact becomes zero . Due to absence of sliding , displacement due to friction  becomes zero . Hence work done by friction becomes zero.

A toolbox of mass 3.2kg is lowered by a rope from the roof to the ground. Find the acceleration of the toolbox when the force of
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 2.7 m/s²

b) -3.6 m/s²

Explanation:

Data

mass of the toolbox = 3.2 kg

a = ?

F = 40 N and F = 20 N

g = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

Second law of motion = F = ma

                              a + g = F / m

                              a = F/m - g

a)                            a = 40/3.2 - 9.81

                              a = 2.69 ≈ 2.7 m/s²   positive up

b)                            a = 20/ 3.2 - 9.81

                              a = 6.25 - 9.81

                                  = - 3.56 ≈ - 3.6 m/s²  negative down

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

C. water is more dense and viscous

Explanation:

Rapid gas exchange can be accomplished more easily in air than in water because water is more dense and viscous.

Gases have the greatest ease of diffusion of their respective particles, as occurs in air, since their molecules have higher speeds and have more distance from each other than liquids.

The molecular diffusion rate in liquids is much less than in gases. The molecules of a liquid are very close (liquids are more dense and viscous) to each other compared to those of a gas, then the gas molecules hits with the molecules of the liquid with more frequency and this causes that the gas moves slower than in other gas (for example in air).
