The word "Per" means divide

"miles per gallon" is the same as "miles / gallon"

The truck went 1,200 miles
on 55 gallons

1,200 ÷ 55 = 21.81

Simply divide the two quantities to attain the correct unit.

1200 miles/55 gallons = 21.82 miles/gallon

Angular momentum is conserved, just before the clay hits and just after; 
<span>mv(L/2) = Iw </span>

<span>I is the combined moment of inertia of the rod, (1/12)ML^2 , and the clay at the tip, m(L/2)^2 ; </span>
<span>I = [(1/12)ML^2 + m(L/2)^2] </span>

<span>Immediately after the collision the kinetic energy of rod + clay swings the rod up so the clay rises to a height "h" above its lowest point, giving it potential energy, mgh. From energy conservation in this phase of the problem; </span>
<span>(1/2)Iw^2 = mgh </span>

<span>Use the "w" found in the conservation of momentum above; and solve for "h" </span>
<span>h = mv^2L^2/8gI </span>

<span>Next, get the angle by noting it is related to "h" as; </span>
<span>h = (L/2) - (L/2)Cos() </span>

<span>So finally </span>
<span>Cos() = 1- 2h/L = 1 - mv^2L/4gI </span>

<span>m=mass of clay </span>
<span>M=mass of rod </span>
<span>L=length of rod </span>
<span>v=velocity of clay</span>

Answer:

1.63 N

Explanation:

F = GMm/r^2

  = (6.67x10^-11)(10x10^5)(3x10^5) / 3.5^2

  = 1.63 N  ( 3 sig. fig.)

Why are circuit breakers and fuses important?
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

A fuse and circuit breaker both serve to protect an overloaded electrical circuit by interrupting the continuity, or the flow of electricity. ... Fuses tend to be quicker to interrupt the flow of power, but must be replaced after they melt, while circuit breakers can usually simply be reset.
