Assume the population of a large city like New York City is about 4 × 10^6 people, with about 1.97 people per household. Approxi

mately 1 household in 16.1 has a piano. The piano keyboard has about 64 notes (8 octaves) with about 2 strings per note. A piano should be tuned once per year (365.25 days). A piano tuner can tune about 3 pianos per day. And, finally, pianos tuners work 250 days per year. How many pianos tuners are there in New York City?

So here are the given information:

4 x 10^6 people 

1.97 people = 1 household 

16.1 households = 1 piano 


1 piano = 1 tuning/year 

1 tuner = 3 tunings/working day 

<span>1 year = 250  working days </span>


Multiplying everything: 

4 x 10^6 people x (1 household/1.97 people) x (1 piano/16.1 households) = 126115.33 pianos in NYC 

126115.33 pianos x (1 (tuning/year)/1 piano) x (1 year/250 working days) x (1 working day/3 pianos/tuner) = 168.15 tuners 


<span>Therefore about 168 piano tuners in NYC.</span>

How many butter, which has a usable energy content of 6.0 Cal/g (= 6000 cal/g), would be equivalent to the change in gravitation
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

175.96 g

Explanation:

Potential energy required for the man to climb 7.07 km = m g h.

= 64 x 9.8 x 7070

= 4.434 x 10⁶ J

= 4.434 X 10⁶ / 4.2 cals

= 1.0557 x 10⁶ cals

= 1.0557 x 10⁶ / 6000 g of butter

= 175.96 g of butter.

You're carrying a 3.2-m-long, 24kg pole to a construction site when you decide to stop for a rest. You place one end of the pole
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Tension of 132N

Explanation:

We need to apply Summatory of Force to find the tension in the hand.

We define te tensión in the hand as F_2 and the Tension in fence post as F_1, then

\sum F = 24(9.8)

F_1 + F_2= 24(9.8)

We apply summatory of moments then

F_2*1.25 = F_1*1.6

Where the Force 2 is 1.25m from the center of summatory,

We can note that,

1.6 m - 0.35m=1.25m

We have two equation and two incognites, then replacing (1) in (2)

1.6(235.2 -F_2) = 1.25F_2

376.32 = F2(1.6+1.25)

F_2= \frac{376.32}{2.85}

F_2 =132 N
