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

A parallel beam of light in air makes an angle of 43.5 ∘ with the surface of a glass plate having a refractive index of 1.68. Yo
aniked [119]

Answer:

a) 46.5º  b) 64.4º

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use the laws of geometric optics

a) For this part we will use the law of reflection that states that the reflected and incident angle are equal

     θ = 43.5º

This angle measured from the surface is

     θ_r = 90 -43.5

     θ_s = 46.5º

b) In this part the law of refraction must be used

     n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂. Sin θ₂

     sin θ₂ = n₁ / n₂ sin θ₁

The index of air refraction is n₁ = 1

The angle is this equation is measured between the vertical line called normal, if the angles are measured with respect to the surface

     θ_s = 90 - θ

     θ_s = 90- 43.5

     θ_s = 46.5º

     sin θ₂ = 1 / 1.68  sin 46.5

     sin θ₂ = 0.4318

     θ₂ = 25.6º

The angle with respect to the surface is

     θ₂_s = 90 - 25.6

     θ₂_s = 64.4º

measured in the fourth quadrant

In 1935, a French destroyer, La Terrible, attained one of the fastest speeds for any standard warship. Suppose it took 3.0 min a
REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

From newton's equation of motion of uniform acceleration

v = u + at

where v is final velocity , u is initial velocity , a is acceleration and time is t .

putting the values

v  =  0 + .5 x 3 x 60  ( time in second = 3 x 60 s )

= 90 m /s

So  , final velocity is 90 m /s .

A stuntwoman is going to attempt a jump across a canyon that is 77 m wide. The ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

  She will make the jump.

Explanation:

We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

First we will consider horizontal motion of stunt women

   Displacement = 77 m, Initial velocity = 28 cos 15 = 27.05 m/s, acceleration = 0

Substituting

   77= 27.05t+\frac{1}{2} *0*t^2\\ \\ t=77/27.05=2.85 seconds

So she will cover 77 m in 2.85 seconds

 Now considering vertical motion, up direction as positive

    Initial velocity = 28 sin 15 = 7.25 m/s, acceleration =acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s^2, time = 2.85

    Substituting

           s=7.25*2.85-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*2.85^2=20.69-39.80 =-10.11 m

  So at time 2.85 stunt women is 10.11 m below from starting position, far side is 25 m lower. So she will be at higher position.

  So she will make the jump.

HELP BRANLIEST
Vsevolod [243]

Explanation:

- Newton's first law of motion:

"An object at rest (or in uniform motion) remains at rest (or in uniform motion) unless acted upon an unbalanced force

In this situation, we can apply Newton's first law to the keys of the keyboard that are not hit by the fingers of the man. In fact, as no force act on the keys, they remain at rest.

- Newton's second law of motion:

"The acceleration experienced by an object is proportional to the net force exerted on the object; mathematically:

F=ma

where F is the net force, m is the mass of the object, and a its acceleration"

In this case, we can apply Newton's second law to the keys of the keyboard that are hit by the man: in fact, as they are hit, they experience a downward force, and therefore they experience a downward acceleration.

"Newton's third law of motion:

"When an object A exerts a force on an object B (action force), then object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A (reaction force)"

Here We can apply Newton's third law to the pair of objects finger-key: in fact, as the finger apply a force on the key (action force), then the key exerts a force back on the finger (reaction force), equal and opposite.
