Answer:

It will take both pumps 3.08 hours to fill the tank working together.

Explanation:

Pump A can fill the tank in 5 hours. Assuming that the pump gives out a steady flow of water, in one hour, pump A can fill 1/5th of the tank. Similarly, pump B in an hour, fills up 1/8th of the tank.

We must add up these two values, in order to find how much of the tank the two pumps can fill up together in one hour.

1/5 +1/8 =13/40

So 13/40 of the tank is filled in an hour. We need to find how many hours it will take for the entire tank to be filled. To do so, divide 40 by 13. This gives:

3.08 hours to fill up the tank.

<span>Actually the second law of thermodynamics would truly gets violated ie, which means that the entrophy changes of the isolated system can never be negative, which covers the above that if heat were to spontaneously flow between any two objects of equal temperature would be fully violated.</span>

A mechanic changing the spark plugs in a car notes that the instruction manual calls for a torque with a magnitude of
Papessa [141]

The magnitude (in N) of the force she must exert on the wrench is 150.1 N.

<h3>Force exerted by the wrench</h3>

The force exerted by the wrench is calculated using torque formula as follows;

torque, τ = F x r x sinθ

where;

  • F is the applied force
  • r is the perpendicular distance if force applied

F =  τ /(r sinθ)

F = (39) / (0.3 sin 60)

F = 150.1 N

Thus, the magnitude (in N) of the force she must exert on the wrench is 150.1 N.

If you swim from one point at the edge of the pool to another, along a straight line, what is the longest distance d you can swi
ddd [48]

Long straight distance that a person can swim is 5.64 m.

<h3>What is the Long straight distance?</h3>

The line that runs form one end of the circle to another is called the diameter of the circle. The pool is a circle according to the question and the long straight distance that a person can swim is the same of the diameter of the circular pool.

Now we have;

A =  πr^2

A = area of pool

r  = radius of pool

r = √A/ π

r = √25/3.142

r = 2.82m

Diameter of the circular pool = 2 r = 2 (2.82 cm) = 5.64 m

Missing parts;

An ad for an above-ground pool states that it is 25 m2. From the ad, you can tell that the pool is a circle. If you swim from one point at the edge of the pool to another, along a straight line, what is the longest distance d you can swim? Express your answer in three significant figures.
