Answer:

The helicopter uses 35 gallons to fly for 5 hours.

Explanation:

The amount of gas that a helicopter uses for flying varies directly proportional to the number of hours spent flying.

g ∝ T

where g represents amount of gas and T time of flight.

Then,

\therefore \frac{g_1}{g_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}

The helicopter files 4 hours and uses 28 gallons of fuel.

Here, g₁= 28 gallons, T₁=4 hours

g₂=?, T₂=5 hours.

\therefore \frac{g_1}{g_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}

\Rightarrow \frac{28}{g_2}=\frac{4}{5}

⇒28×5= g₂×4

⇒ g₂×4=28×5

\Rightarrow g_2=\frac{28\times 5}{4}

\Rightarrow g_2=35 gallons

The helicopter uses 35 gallons to fly for 5 hours.

morpeh [17]

During the evacuation of a system containing large amounts of moisture, it may be necessary to prevent freezing by increasing pressure using a gas such as Nitrogen

The scientific name for nitrogen is N, and it is a flavorless and colorless element. The ground beneath our feet contains nitrogen, as does the water we drink and the air we breathe. In fact, nitrogen makes up the majority of the atmosphere on Earth, making up around 78% of the atmosphere.

Nitrogen, which is necessary for plant growth, can be "fixed" by lightning or given to soils through fertilizers. a flavorless gas with no color. The chemical industry depends on nitrogen. It is used to create explosives, nylon, nitric acid, fertilizers, and colors. Nitrogen is always represented as N2 when it is in a gaseous state. It belongs to the group of seven diatomic molecules.
