It is given that the price of the carpet is $ 28.99 per square yard

Step 1: Convert square yard to square meter

1 square yard = 0.836 square meter

Step 2: Calculate the cost/square meter

Now based on the relation in step (1) we can write

0.836 square meter of carpet costs $ 28.99

Therefore the cost of 1 square meter of the carpet would be

= $ 28.99 * 1 sq meter/0.836 sq meter

= $ 34.68

Answer:

$34.68 per square meter.

Explanation:

A carpet sells for $28.99 a square yard.

We have to calculate the price of the carpet per square meter.

1 square yard = 0.836 square meters

The carpet sells for $28.99 for 0.836 meter²

Therefore, the cost of the carpet for 1 square meter = $\frac{28.99}{0.836}$

= $34.677 ≈ $34.68

The price of the carpet per square meter is $34.68

Your answer is D. 8

16 = 2^4
72 = 2^3*3^2

So you'll choose 2^3 = 8

How long does it take the sun to melt a block of ice at 0∘c with a flat horizontal area 1.0 m2 and thickness 1.8 cm ? assume tha

VLD [36.1K]

This is a problem involving heat transfer through radiation. The solution to this problem would be to use the formula for heat flux.

ΔQ/Δt = (1000 W/m²)∈Acosθ

A is the total surface area:
A = (1 m²) + 4(1.8 cm)(1m/100 cm)(√(1 m²))
A = 1.072 m²

ΔQ is the heat of melting ice.
ΔQ = mΔHfus
Let's find its mass knowing that the density of ice is 916.7 kg/m³.
ΔQ = (916.7 kg/m³)(1 m²)(1.8 cm)(1m/100 cm)(333,550 J/kg)
ΔQ = 5,503,780 J

5,503,780 J/Δt = (1000 W/m²)(0.05)(1.072 m²)(cos 33°)
Δt = 122,434.691 s or 34 hours
