Answer:

10 cubic inches

Explanation:

Setler79 [48]3 years ago

The correct answer is C.

We will use Boyle's law that states that for a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional. 

P1 V1 = P2 V2

Where

 P1 is initial pressure = 5 psi

V1 is initial volume = 20 cubic inch

P2 is final pressure = 10 psi

V2 is final volume = unknown

V2 = P1,V1 / P2

V2 = 20 × 5 / 10

V2 = 100/10

V2 = 10 cubic inches

Slav-nsk [51]

The best answer would be:

B. Epi pen

Here is more about it:

An epi pen injects epinephrine into the body to counteract the effects of an allergic reaction. Epinephrine helps narrow blood vessels and open up the airways. This can be used for food allergies, insect bites, and some other allergens. It is very effective and immediately works, but it is short-lived, so seeking medical attention after is still needed.

A second baseman tosses the ball to the first baseman, who catches it at the same level from which it was thrown. The throw is m
Anit [1.1K]
 <span>(a) 

Taking the angle of the pitch, 37.5°, and the particle's initial velocity, 18.0 ms^-1, we get: 

18.0*cos37.5 = v_x = 14.28 ms^-1, the projectile's horizontal component. 

(b) 
To much the same end do we derive the vertical component: 

18.0*sin37.5 = v_y = 10.96 ms^-1 

Which we then divide by acceleration, a_y, to derive the time till maximal displacement, 

10.96/9.8 = 1.12 s 

Finally, doubling this value should yield the particle's total time with r_y > 0

The Earth’s diameter is about 8,000 miles; our Moon’s diameter is about 2,000 miles; how
Vitek1552 [10]

Three moons can fit inside the volume of the sun.

<h3>What is the moon?</h3>

The moon is a non luminous body found in the space. It could cause a solar eclipse when it comes between the sun and the earth.

Since the Earth’s diameter is about 8,000 miles and the Moon’s diameter is about 2,000 miles, to obtain the number of moons that could fit inside the sun we have;

8,000 miles/ 2,000 miles = 3

Hence, three moons can fit inside the volume of the sun.

Show the weight of the ladder and draw the missing Frictional force.
madreJ [45]
Since there is no friction between the ladder and the wall, there can be no vertical force component. That's the tricky part ;)

So to find the weight, divide the 100N <em>normal</em> force by earths gravitational acceleration, 9.8m/s^2

W =  \frac{N}{g}  =  \frac{100N}{9.8m/s^{2}} =  \frac{100}{9.8} = 10.2kg


Then;
Draw an arrow at the base of the ladder pointing towards the wall with a value of 30N, to show the frictional force.
