The gas pedal opens the throttle. This supplies air to the engine and fuel is metered into the air stream to provide a combustible mixture to the engine. If the throttle is close, I.e., you lift you foot, this process stops and the engine slows to an idle setting where enough fuel is provided to keep the engine turning over but not to move the car at any significant speed. When your cruising at a steady speed, even on a flat road, the engine turns over faster and requires enough fuel so that air resistance are overcome as well as internal friction losses in the engine.

Calculate the volume of 500 kilograms of lead if the density of lead is 11400 k/m^3. Answer to be in 2 decimal places. Please he
mart [117]

To find volume you divide mass by density. So 500kg divided by 11400 will give you a volume of 0.04 mL.

QUICK HELP! WILL AWARD BRAINLIEST
Anarel [89]

For Question 1, Ideas that are Science based, are often testable, verifiable, can be falsified, and based on evidence.

Ideas that are non-science based are not testable, not verifiable, said to be infallible and are based on belief.

For Question 2,  The gravitational force increases as the size of an object increases. On the other hand, the strength of gravity is inversely related to the square of the distance between two objects.

For Question 3, The equation from density is mass over volume.

Changes volume it will change by a inverted proportion. Increases it will decrease the density, decreasing it wil increase the density.

Changes mass it will change directly. Increasing mass it will increase density and vice versa.

For Question 4, Examples of physical properties are: color, smell, freezing point, boiling point, melting point, infra-red spectrum, attraction (paramagnetic) or repulsion (diamagnetic) to magnets, opacity, viscosity and density.

For Question 5, I'd say it's for proof of their theory.



Hope this helped.
