Answer:

size of popcorn seed may meet the scaled earth size of x = 0.07312 in.  

Explanation:

Given:-

- The diameter of actual sun, Ds = 1.3927 * 10^6 km

- The diameter of model sun ball, ds = 8 in

- The diameter of the actual earth, De = 12,742 km

Find:-

How large would be the earth model

Solution:-

- We can use the actual diameters of the earth and sun to develop the ratio of earth diameter to that of sun. The direct ratio can be used to model the diameter of earth for the scale model

                                          Sun                   Earth

                     Actual :     1392700 km     12,742 km

                      Scale :           8 in                    x

- Use direct relations and solve for x:

                               x = (8 in)*(12,742 km ) / ( 1392700 km )

                              x = 0.07312 in.

- From the given options apple, grapefruit and marble diameters are larger than 1 inch. So only the size of popcorn seed may meet the scaled earth size of x = 0.07312 in.

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:0.0686 m^3

Explanation:

Given

No of moles=2

T=25^{\circ}\approx 298 K

P_1=210 KPa

T_2=48 ^{\circ}\approx 321 k

P_2=77.7 KPa

PV=nRT

Substitute

77.7\times V_2=2\times 8.314\times 321

V_2=0.0686 m^3

Which is an example of current electricity
Reil [10]

Answer:

A or B you choose

Explanation:

This is called current electricity or an electric current. A lightning bolt is one example of an electric current, although it does not last very long. Electric currents are also involved in powering all the electrical appliances that you use, from washing machines to flashlights and from telephones to MP3 players.

what is an electrical current, amp, ampere Current is the flow of electrons. When a circuit is closed then a current of electrons can flow and when a circuit is open then no current can flow. We can measure the flow of electrons just like you can measure the flow of water through a pipe.
