Pumice is used for cleaning foot. Foot are wet with warm water and then scrub by pumice so that hard and dry skin can be removed. It is quite effective in cleaning skin.

Pumice is also used as light weight material in concrete mix. Due to it porous texture, it is a good light weight material.

Two men decide to use their cars to pull a truck stuck in the mud. They attach ropes and one pulls with a force of 615 N at an a
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

1398.12 N

Explanation:

We define the x-axis in the direction parallel to the movement of the truck  on and the y-axis in the direction perpendicular to it.

x-components  of the ropes forces

T₁x = 615N*cos31°=527.1579 N  :Tension in direction x of the rope of the car 1

T₂x= 961 N*cos25°=870.96 N  :Tension in direction x of the rope of the car 2

Net forward force exerted on the truck in the direction it is headed (Fnx)

Fnx = T₁x  + T₂x

Fnx = 527.1579 N  + 870.96 N

Fnx = 1398.12 N

El aspa de un ventilador de 0.30 m de diametro gira 1200 rev/min. calcule la rapidez tangencial.
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

v = 18.84 m/s

Explanation:

Let the question says,"The blade of a 0.30 m diameter fan rotates 1200 rev / min. calculate the tangential speed."

It is given that,

Diameter of a blade of fan is 0.3 m

Angular velocity of the fan is 1200 rev/min or 125.66 rad/s

We need to find the tangential speed of the fan. The relation is given by :

v=r\omega

r is radius of fan

v=0.15\times 125.66 \\\\v=18.84\ m/s

So, the tangential velocity is 18.84 m/s.

CONVERT 5 SOLAR DAYS INTO SECOND​
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

5 solar days is 432,000 seconds

Explanation:

One solar day is the time the meridian of the Sun crosses passes through a specified place.

Due to the elliptical orbit of the Earth round the Sun, one average solar day on Earth is equivalent to 24 hours with some days longer and some days shorter each by a few minutes

Therefore, we have;

5 solar days = 5 × 24 hours × 60 minutes/hour × 60 seconds/minute = 432,000 seconds

5 solar days = 432,000 seconds
