<h2>Answer:</h2>

14.7 lb / in² = 10333018.166 g / m²

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Given from the question;

pressure = 14.7lb/in²

<u>To convert from lb / in² to g / m²</u>

Note;

2.54 cm = 1 in       ------------(i)

But;

100 cm = 1m

=> 2.54cm = 2.54 cm x 1 m / 100 cm = 0.0254m

=>2.54cm = 0.0254m

Substitute 2.54cm = 0.0254m into equation(i)

=> 0.0254m = 1 in

<em>Note also;</em>

2.205 lb = 1 kg            ------------------(ii)

But;

1kg = 1000g

Substitute 1kg = 1000g into equation (ii)

=> 2.205 lb = 1000g   ---------------------(iii)

<em>From equation(iii);</em>

if, 2.205 lb = 1000g

then, 1 lb = 1 lb x 1000 g / 2.205 lb = 453.5g

=> 1 lb = 453.5 g

<em>Now let's convert 14.7 lb/in² to g / m²;</em>

=> 14.7 lb / in² could be written as 14.7 x 1 lb / (1 in x 1 in)

i.e

=> 14.7 lb / in² = 14.7 x 1 lb / (1 in x 1 in)     ------------------(iv)

<em>Substitute the values of 1 lb = 453.5g and 1 in = 0.0254m into equation(iv)</em>

=> 14.7 lb / in² = 14.7 x 453.5g / (0.0254m x 0.0254m)

=> 14.7 lb / in² = 6666.45 g / (0.00064516m²)

=> 14.7 lb / in² = 10333018.166 g / m²

<em>Therefore, 14.7 lb / in² = 10333018.166 g / m²</em>

If youre walking from point a to b, the magnitude of your displacement will always be equal or less than or greater than your di
xenn [34]

The magnitude of your displacement can be equal to the distance you covered, or it can be less than the distance you covered.  But it can never be greater than the distance you covered.

This is because displacement is a straight line, whereas distance can be a straight line, a squiggly line, a zig-zag line, a line with loops in it, a line with a bunch of back-and-forths in it, or any other kind of line.

The straight line is always the shortest path between two points.

Two samples of water are mixed together.
horrorfan [7]

Let the cold water go up x degrees.

Let the hot water go down 100 - x degrees.

The formula for heat exchange is m*c*delta t

Givens

Ice

deltat = x

m = 0.50 kg

c = 4.18

Hot water

deltat = 100 - x

m = 1.5 kg

c = 4.18

Formula

The heat up = heat down

0.50 * c * x = 1.5 * c * (100 - x)            Divide both sides by c

Solution

0.50 *x = 1.5*(100 - x)                          Remove the brackets.

0.5x = 150 - 1.5x                                  Add 1.5x to both sides.

0.5x + 1.5x = 150 - 1.5x + 1.5x             Combine like terms  

2x = 150                                               Divide by 2

x = 75

A

I'm walking 1.6m/s to 7-11 and it started to rain so I sped up to 2.7m/s in 1.2
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

a = \frac{v_f-v_0}{t} which is the final velocity minus the initial velocity in the numerator, and the change in time in the denominator.  For us:

a=\frac{2.7-1.6}{1.2} so

a = .92 m/s/s (NOT negative because you're speeding up)

Two friends are playing a version of proton golf where the hole is marked by a single proton. The first friend reads his meter,
yarga [219]

Answer:

the electric field strength on the second one is 2.67 N/C.

Explanation:

the electric fiel on the first one is:

E1 = k×q/(r^2)

r^2 = k×q/(E1)

     = (9×10^9)×(q)/(24.0)

     = 375000000q

then the electric field on the second one is:

E2 = k×q/(R^2)

we know that R = 3r

                       R^2 = 9×r^2

E2 = k×q/(9×r^2)

     = k×q/(9×375000000q)

     = k/(9×375000000)

     = (9×10^9)/(9×375000000)

     = 2.67 N/C

Therefore, the electric field strength on the second one is 2.67 N/C.
