You measure a distance of 185 feet. How many meters is this?

EastWind [94]4 years ago

-- Take the 185 feet.

-- Multiply it by (12 inches / 1 feet)

-- Multiply it by (2.54 cm / 1 inch)

-- Multiply it by (1 meter / 100 cm)

Doesn't all this multiplying change the value of the 185 feet ?

NO, it doesn't.  Each of those fractions has the exact same thing on top and on the bottom.  So each of those fractions is equal to ' 1 '.  It doesn't change the value of the 185 feet ... it only changes the UNITS.

Length = (185 feet) x (12 inches/1 feet) x (2.54 cm/1 inch) x (1 meter/100 cm)

Length = (185 x 12 x 2.54) / (1 x 1 x 100) (feet-inch-cm-meter / feet-inch-cm)

Length = <em>56.388 meters</em>

A light plane must reach a speed of 33m/s for takeoff.how long a runway is needed if the the acceleration is 3.0m/s^2
Tanzania [10]

Remark

Always write down your givens and what you want to find. The formula you use for such questions will suggest itself if you do this.

Givens

a = 3.0 m/s^2

vi = 0  I presume that's that the question assumes.

vf = 33 m/s

You want d

Formula

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2*a*d

Solution

33^2 = 0^2 + 2 * 3 * d

1089 = 6*d

d = 1089/6

d = 181.5 meters

An ac generator consists of a coil with 40 turns of wire, each with an area of 0.06 m2 . The coil rotates in a uniform magnetic
mezya [45]

Answer:

d. 332 V

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns in the wire, N = 40 turns

area of the coil, A = 0.06 m²

magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 0.4 T

frequency of the wave, f = 55 Hz

The maximum emf induced in the coil is given by;

E = NBAω

Where;

ω is angular velocity = 2πf

E = NBA(2πf)

E = 40 x 0.4 x 0.06 x (2 x π x 55)

E = 332 V

Therefore, the maximum induced emf in the coil is 332 V.

The correct option is "D"

d. 332 V

Identify a true statement about flow separation. Multiple Choice A. Flow separation is caused due to high temperature gradient i
Helga [31]

Answer:

D. Flow separation is caused due to adverse pressure gradient in the flowing fluid.

Explanation:

Flow separation  :    

  When adverse pressure gradient become dominate then phenomenon of flow separation occurs.In the other words when boundary layer is form against the adverse pressure then  phenomenon of flow separation occurs.The adverse pressure means a opposing which act in the opposite to the direction of fluid flow.Due to flow separation eddy formation occurs and these eddy leads to increases the losses in the fluid flow.Due to flow separation fluid leaves the solid surface and form eddies.

So the answer is D.
