1) we calculate the volume of the Earth expressed in ft.
Volume of a sphere=(4/3)πr³
3960 miles=3960 miles*(5280 ft/1 mile)=20908800 ft

Volume of the Earth=(4/3)π(20908800 ft)³=(4/3)9.1408*10²¹π ft³

2) we calculate the volume of a ping-pong ball at miles

V=(4/3)π(0.7441 in)³=(4/3)0.412π in³

3)we calculate how many times larger is the volume of the Earh tan the volume of a ping-pòng ball.

(4/3)0.412π in³------------------------ a ping-pong ball.
(4/3)9.1408*10²¹π ft³--------------         x

x=(4/3)9.1408*10²¹π ft³* volume of a ping-pong ball) /(4/3)0.412π in³)=
=2.21865*10²²  ping-pong balls.

Answer: The volume of the Earth is  2.21865*10²²  times larger than  the volume of a ping-pong ball.

A tug boat pulls a ship with a constant net horizontal force of 5.00•10*3 N and causes the ship to move through a harbor. How mu
Murljashka [212]

The work done on the ship is 1.5\cdot 10^7 J

Explanation:

The work done by a force on an object is given by:

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the displacement

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

In this problem, we have:

F=5.00\cdot 10^3 N (force acting on the ship)

d = 3.00 km = 3000 m (displacement of the ship)

\theta=0^{\circ} (because the force is horizontal, and the displacement is horizontal as well)

Therefore, the work done on the ship is

W=(5.00\cdot 10^3)(3000)(cos 0^{\circ})=1.5\cdot 10^7 J

An experimenter finds that standing waves on a string fixed at both ends occur at 24 Hz and 32 Hz , but at no frequencies in bet
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

8 Hz

Explanation:

Given that

Standing wave at one end is 24 Hz

Standing wave at the other end is 32 Hz.

Then the frequency of the standing wave mode of a string having a length, l, is usually given as

f(m) = m(v/2L), where in this case, m could be 1. 2. 3. 4 etc

Also, another formula is given as

f(m) = m.f(1), where f(1) is the fundamental frequency..

Thus, we could say that

f(m+1) - f(m) = (m + 1).f(1) - m.f(1) = f(1)

And as such,

f(1) = 32 - 24

f(1) = 8 Hz

Then, the fundamental frequency needed is 8 Hz

Which prediction of weather is the most accurate for the next two days if there is an occluded front over the area?
alisha [4.7K]

The most accurate weather for the next two days would be dry warm weather or severe thunderstorms if there is an occluded front over the area.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The weather front that is created during the cyclogenesis process is an occluded front in meteorology. Cyclogenesis process is the development of extra-tropical cyclone and its intensification.

During the occurrence of this, the warm air is occluded (separated) from the center of cyclone at the surface of the earth.

The cold front rotates the storm as it intensifies and holds up the warm front. This develops an occluded front, that is the boundary which separates the new cold air mass and the older cool air mass that is already in warm front's north.
