If gas costs $3.65 per gallon at a local service station, how many cubic feet of gas can a customer buy with $40 ?

Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly. 

For consistency you must convert gallons to cubic foot. The conversions are:

7.481 gal = 1 ft3

Then, $3.65 per gallon becomes $27.3 per ft3. If you buy $40 worth of gas, you get $40/$27.3 = 1.46 ft3 of gas. 

If you can travel for 4 miles per ft3, then with the amount of gas you have, you can travel up to 5.85 miles.

(4 miles/ft3)*(1.46 ft3) = 5.85 miles

There are four charges, each with a magnitude of 4.25 C. Two are positive and two are negative. The charges are fixed to the cor
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

 F = 7.68 10¹¹ N,  θ = 45º

Explanation:

In this exercise we ask for the net electric force. Let's start by writing the configuration of the charges, the charges of the same sign must be on the diagonal of the cube so that the net force is directed towards the interior of the cube, see in the attached numbering and sign of the charges

The net force is

          F_ {net} = F₂₁ + F₂₃ + F₂₄

bold letters indicate vectors. The easiest method to solve this exercise is by using the components of each force.

let's use trigonometry

          cos 45 = F₂₄ₓ / F₂₄

          sin 45 = F_{24y) / F₂₄

          F₂₄ₓ = F₂₄ cos 45

          F_{24y} = F₂₄ sin 45

let's do the sum on each axis

X axis

          Fₓ = -F₂₁ + F₂₄ₓ

          Fₓ = -F₂₁₁ + F₂₄ cos 45

Y axis  

         F_y = - F₂₃ + F_{24y}

         F_y = -F₂₃ + F₂₄ sin 45

They indicate that the magnitude of all charges is the same, therefore

         F₂₁ = F₂₃

Let's use Coulomb's law

         F₂₁ = k q₁ q₂ / r₁₂²

       

the distance between the two charges is

         r = a

         F₂₁ = k q² / a²

we calculate F₂₄

           F₂₄ = k q₂ q₄ / r₂₄²

the distance is

           r² = a² + a²

           r² = 2 a²

         

we substitute

           F₂₄ = k  q² / 2 a²

we substitute in the components of the forces

          Fx = - k \frac{q^2}{a^2} +  k \frac{q^2}{2 a^2}  \ cos 45

          Fx = k \frac{q^2}{a^2}  ( -1 + ½ cos 45)

          F_y = k \frac{q^2}{a^2} ( -1 +  ½ sin 45)    

         

We calculate

            F₀ = 9 10⁹ 4.25² / 0.440²

            F₀ = 8.40 10¹¹ N

       

            Fₓ = 8.40 10¹¹ (½ 0.707 - 1)

            Fₓ = -5.43 10¹¹ N

         

remember cos 45 = sin 45

             F_y = - 5.43 10¹¹  N

We can give the resultant force in two ways

a) F = Fₓ î + F_y ^j

          F = -5.43 10¹¹ (i + j)   N

b) In the form of module and angle.

For the module we use the Pythagorean theorem

          F = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_y^2}

          F = 5.43 10¹¹  √2

          F = 7.68 10¹¹ N

in angle is

           θ = 45º

Please help me with this question ASAP.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

i. 6.923 V

ii. The e.m.f. = 22.5 V

Explanation:

i. The given parameters are;

Length of potentiometer = 1 m

The resistance of the potentiometer = 10 Ω

The e. m. f. of the attached cell = 9 V

The current, I flowing in the circuit = e. m. f/(Total resistance)

The current, I flowing in the circuit = 9 V/(10 + 3) = 9/13 A

The potential difference, p.d. across the 1 m potentiometer wire = I × Resistance of the potentiometer wire

The p.d. across the potentiometer wire = 9/13×10 = 90/13 = 6.923 V

ii) Given that the 1 m potentiometer wire has a resistance of 10 Ω, 75 cm which is 0.75 m will have an e.m.f. given by the following relation;

\dfrac{E}{R_{balance}} = \dfrac{V}{R_{cell}}

Where:

E = e.m.f. of the balance point cell

R_{balance} = Resistance of 75 cm of potentiometer wire  = 0.75×10 = 7.5 Ω

R_{cell} = Resistance of the cell in the circuit = 3 Ω

V = e.m.f. attached cell = 9 V

\dfrac{E}{7.5} = \dfrac{9}{3}

E = 7.5*3 = 22.5 V

The e.m.f. = 22.5 V

A projectile is launched upward at an angle of 70⁰ from the horizontal and strikes the ground a certain distance down range. For
OLga [1]

Answer:20°

Explanation:

Recall

Range R of a projectile is given by U^2sin2A/g

We're U = velocity,A= angle of projection and g is acceleration due to gravity

From the question the range R are the same

Hence R1=R2

U1^2sin2A/g=U2^2sin2B/g

But U1=U2 and g=g

Hence sin2A=sin 2B

Sin 2*70= sin2*B

0.6427=sin2B

B=sin inverse(0.6427)=40/2=20°

A person is pushing a box. The net external force on the 60-kg box is stated to be 90 N. If the force of friction opposing the m
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

b.1.5m/s^2

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of box=60kg

Net external force applied on the box=90 N

Friction force =30N

We have to find the acceleration of the box.

We know that

Net external force=ma

Substitute the values then we get

90=60a

a=\frac{90}{60}=1.5m/s^2

Hence, option b is true.
