Answer:
A)
58/3 = 19.33 hours
B)
84.00 hours
C)
2074.29 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Under the assumption the earth is a perfect circle, then in a complete rotation ( 24 hours) the earth will rotate through 360 degrees or 2π radians.
A)
In one day or 24 hours the earth rotates through 360 degrees. We are required to determine the duration it takes to rotate through 290 degrees. Let x be the duration it takes the earth to rotate through 290 degrees, then the following proportions hold;
(24/360) = (x/290)
solving for x;
x = (24/360) * 290 = 58/3 = 19.33 hours
B)
In 24 hours the earth rotates through an angle of 2π radians. We are required to determine the duration it will takes the Earth to rotate through 7π radians. Let x be the duration it takes the earth to rotate through 7π radians, then the following proportions hold;
(24/2π radians) = (x/7π radians)
Solving for x;
x = (24/2π radians)*7π radians = 84 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
To answer this question, you need to know how many fluid ounces are in a pint and in a quart. None of the choices reflect 98 fl oz, so I showed the ones that would hold 96 fluid ounces.
1 cup = 8 fl oz
2 cups = 16 fl oz
1 pint = 2 cups, so 1 pint also equals 16 fl oz.
2 pints equal 1 quart, so 16 x 2 = 32 oz (the number of fluid ounces in a quart)
1 pint - 16 fl oz
1 quart = 32 fl oz
Choice A: 3 quarts x 32 =96 fl oz.
Choice B: 2 quarts x 32 = 64 fl oz
Choice C: 2 quarts x 32 + 2 pints x 16 = 64 + 32 (96 fl oz)
Choice D: 1 quart x 32 + 8 cups x 8 = 32 + 64 (96 fl oz)
Choice E: 2 cups x 8 + 2 pints x 16 = 16 + 32 (48 fl oz)

Answer:
1.6m
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of the blade is 3.2m
The angle which the blade makes is 30°
Assuming the path of the blade and the length it covers is a right-angled triangle,
The length of the blade is the hypothenus while the path at which it clears is the opposite of the triangle.
See attached document for better illustration.
Using SOHCAHTOA,
Sinθ = opposite / hypothenus
opposite = x
hypothenus = 3.2
θ = 30°
Sin30 = x / 3.2
X = 3.2sin30
X = 3.2 × 0.5
X = 1.6m
The path which the snow plough clears is 1.6m
Answer:
7/10 and 7/8 are both less than 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The product must be less than either factor because when you multiply a number by less than 1, the number gets smaller.
