Answer:

The circumference of the Earth is 24818.58 miles

Explanation:

Analysis conceptual : The formula of the circumference is the following:

L= π*D Formula (1)

Where:

L : is the length of the circumference in miles (mi)

π : is the constant

D : is the diameter of the circumference in miles (mi)

Known data

π = 3.1416

D= 7900 miles: Diameter of the Earth

Problem development

We apply the formula 1 to calculate the circumference of the Earth (L):

L= π*7900 miles

L= 24818.58 miles

The standard normal curve is not symmetrical. <br> a. True<br> b. False

FrozenT [24]

Answer;

The above statement is false

Explanation;

Symmetrical distribution, commonly known as symmetric distribution or normal distribution, is typically unimodal, meaning it shows only one peak in graph form.

It is a type of distribution where the left side of the distribution mirrors the right side. By definition, a symmetric distribution is never a skewed distribution.

All normal distributions are symmetric and have bell-shaped density curves with a single peak.

In this type of bond, electrons are lost or gained by atoms, and the atoms are held together by electrical attraction.

expeople1 [14]

<span>In Ionic type of bonding, electrons are lost (more protons than electrons and positive charge) or gained (more electrons than protons, still a negative charge) by atoms, and the atoms are held together by electrical attraction in the process. Covalent bondings are the sharing of electrons as well as partial bondings. Covalent bondings’ electrons have the same charges thus, there is no gaining or losing electrons in the process of sharing. Strong bondings are applicable only to Hydrogen (H) atoms. </span>

What is the magnitude of the gravitational force of attraction to Jupiter exerts on IO

kotegsom [21]

The gravity force between Jupiter and Io will be 6.343 × 10²² N.

<h3>What is Newton's law of gravitation?</h3>

Newton's law of gravity states that each particle having mass in the universe attracts each other particle with a force known as the gravitational force.

Given data;

Mass of Jupiter, $\rm m_j = 1.9 \times 10^{27} \ kg$

Mass of moon of Jupiter, $\rm m_{i_0}= 8.9 \times 10^{22} \ kg$ ]

The gravitational constant is, $\rm G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11 } \ m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}$

Distance between Jupiter and Io, R = 421,700 km = 4,217,00,000 m

The gravitational force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of their distance.

The gravitational force is found as;

$\rm F = G \frac{ m_J m_{I_0}}{R^2} \\\\\ F = (6.67\times 10^{-11}) \frac{( (1.9\times 10^{27})\times (8.9\times 10^{22} )} { (421700000)^2}\\\\ F_g = 6.343 \times 10^{22} \ N$

Hence, the gravity force between Jupiter and Io will be 6.343 × 10²² N.

The complete question is

"Jupiter has a mass of 1.9 × 1027 kg, and its moon Io has a mass of 8.9 × 1022 kg. Their centers are separated by a distance of 421,700 km what is the force of gravity acting on Io? "

An automatic dryer spins wet clothes at an angular speed of 5.2 rad/s. Starting from rest, the dryer reaches its operating speed

Dvinal [7]

<h2>Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = 0 rad/s

Final velocity, v = 5.2 rad/s

Time, t = ?

Acceleration, a = 3.2 rad/s²

Substituting

v = u + at

5.2 = 0 + 3.2 x t

t = 1.625 s

Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.
