.362 meters because in order to find meters for cm all you do is move the decimal left twice

100 cm is 1 meter. So your answer would be 0.362 meters.

A ceiling fan with 90-cm-diameter blades is turning at 64 rpm . Suppose the fan coasts to a stop 28 s after being turned off. Wh

Answer:

the speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is 16.889 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the ceiling fan, d = 90 cm = 0.9 m

angular speed of the fan, ω = 64 rpm

time taken for the fan to stop, t = 28 s

The distance traveled by the ceiling fan when it comes to a stop is calculated as;

$d = vt = \omega r\times t= ( \frac{64 \ rev}{\min} \times \frac{2 \pi \ rad}{rev} \times \frac{1 \min}{60 \ s} \times 0.9 \ m) \times 28 \ s\\\\d = 168.89 \ m$

The speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is calculated as;

$v = \frac{d}{t} \\\\v = \frac{168.89}{10} \\\\v = 16.889 \ m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the tip of a blade 10 s after the fan is turned off is 16.889 m/s.

A bee wants to fly to a flower located due North of the hive on a windy day. The wind blows from East to West at speed 6.68 m/s.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: $53.31\°$ East of North

Explanation:

We have the following data:

Speed of the wind from East to West: $6.68 m/s$

Speed of the bee relative to the air: $8.33 m/s$

If we graph these speeds (which in fact are velocities because are vectors) in a vector diagram, we will have a right triangle in which the airspeed of the bee (its speed relative to te air) is the hypotense and the two sides of the triangle will be the Speed of the wind from East to West (in the horintal part) and the speed due North relative to the ground (in the vertical part).

Now, we need to find the direction the bee should fly directly to the flower (due North):

$sin \theta=\frac{Windspeed-from-East-to-West}{Speed-bee-relative-to-air}$

$sin \theta=\frac{6.68 m/s}{8.33 m/s}$

Clearing $\theta$ :

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{6.68 m/s}{8.33 m/s})$

$\theta=53.31\°$

Astronomers build optical telescopes on tops of mountains because a. there is less air to dim the light. b. the seeing is better

V125BC [204]

Answer: choices a and b

Explanation:

Telescope can be defined as am optical instrument which is designed to observe the distant objects clear and nearer. It comprises of arrangement of lenses which allow the rays of light to be collected. The collected light is focused and the image so produced is magnified in the form of an image. The telescopes are prepared and manufactured on mountains top as this will help in preventing the distortion of light obtain from the star due to the fluctuation of air mass in the atmosphere. The atmospheric distortion affects the resolution, and affects the vision. The atmospheric pressure is low at the mountain tops so it will help in better observation of the sky.

Please help me thank you !!!!

Fantom [35]

Answer:

UP

Explanation:

heat flows from higher level to lower level

( higher concentration to lower concentration )

and since temperature in above block is less than the lower block, the heat will flow from lower block to higher block .

( Up )
