-1.4 is less than -1/2 because -1/2 is -.5 as a decimal
Korvikt [17]3 years ago
6 0

When looking at negative numbers, the closer to zero the larger the number.

As a decimal -1/2 is -0.5

-0.5 is closer to 0 then -1.4, so -1/2 is bigger.

A footbridge is 5 feet wide and is built with wood planks that are 6 inches wide. How many planks wide is the path?
Ede4ka [16]

Here we have to know the conversion between feet and inches.

1 Feet = 12 inches (This is given and is to be known)

So the 5 feet wide footbridge when converted to inches would be about 5*12 = 60 inches

The width of the footbridge in inches = 60 inches

Each wooden plank is 6 inches,

So the number of wooden planks that are required to build the foot bridge of 60 inches = 60/6 = 10 planks

Hence, the path path is 10 planks wide

You are trying to heat up a cup of water with a butane lighter.
algol13

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The formula for this is

Heat = m * c * Δt

Givens

Heat = unknown

m = 200 grams

c = 4.184 Joules / grams oC

Δt = the change in temperature = 35.7 - 22.3 = 13.4

Solution

Heat = 200 * 4.184 * 13.4

Heat = 11213 Joules

Heat = 11.2 Kj

It's hard to get the correct number of sig digs because the 200 is not qualified in any way.

Part 2.

This can really puzzle you until you know that heat given up = the heat taken on. The heat taken on was 11.2 Kj. The Butane lighter must have given that heat on.

Heat of Combustion = Heat Given Up / Number grams burned.

Heat of Combustion = 11.2 Kj / 0.23 grams

Heat of Combustion = 48.8 Kj / gram
