1 answer:
ki77a [65]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A)

15 hours

B)

108 hours

C)

2074.29 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Under the assumption the earth is a perfect circle, then in one complete rotation about its axis ( 24 hours) the Earth will cover 360 degrees or 2π radians.

A)

In every 24 hours the earth rotates through 360 degrees ( a complete rotation). We are required to determine the length of time it will take the Earth to rotate through 225 degrees. Let x be the duration it takes the earth to rotate through 225 degrees, then the following proportions hold;

(24/360) = (x/225)

solving for x;

x = (24/360) * 225 = 15 hours

B)

In 24 hours the earth rotates through an angle of 2π radians (a complete rotation) . We are required to determine the length of time it will take the Earth to rotate through 9π radians. Let x be the duration it takes the earth to rotate through 9π radians, then the following proportions hold;

(24/2π radians) = (x/9π radians)

Solving for x;

x = (24/2π radians)*9π radians = 108 hours

C)

If the diameter of the earth is 7920 miles, then in a day or 24 hours a point on the equator will rotate through a distance equal to the circumference of the Earth. Using the formula for the circumference of a circle;

circumference = 2*π*R = π*D

                         = 7920*3.142

                         = 24891.43 miles

Therefore a point on the equator covers a distance of 24891.43 miles in 24 hours. This will imply that the speed of the earth is approximately;

(24891.43miles)/(24 hours) = 1037.14 miles/hr

The distance covered by the point in 2 hours will thus be;

1037.14 * 2 = 2074.29 miles

24.5 is 33 1/3% of what number?
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: 73.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent <em>33 1/3% </em>represents 1/3 of 100%. We can multiply 33 1/3% by 3 and get 100%. We need to find what 24.5 is 33 1/3% of.

Since 1/3 x 3 = 100%, then 24.5 x 3 must equal the number we're trying to find.

24.5 x 3 = 73.5.

Therefore, 24.5 is 33 1/3% of 73.5. I hope this helps, and good luck!

3(a+b)=19 if a=6, then a+b=?
aniked [119]

Hello!

In a really simple way, 3 times our answer is 19. We can just divide to find it.

19/3= 6 1/3

Anyway, it might be nice to solve the equation for b. If a=6, then b has to be 1/3, but let's check.

18+3b=19

3b=1

b=1/3

Therefore, a+b= 6 1/3

I hope this helps!
