Mike recently increased the size of his Jeep tires from the original 29 inch diameter to the larger 33.73 inch diameter. If Mike

didn't recalibrate his speedometer, how fast is he really going on the new tires when his speedometer shows he is traveling 60 mph?
a. 54.5 mph
b. 62.1 mph
c. 66.1 mph
d. 69.8 mph

Answer:

d. 69.8 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the ratio of the diameter of the tyre of a vehicle and its speed must be constant,

Given,

The original diameter of the tyre = 29 inch,

Original speed = 60 mph,

Thus, the ratio of diameter and the speed of the vehicle = $\frac{29}{60}$

New diameter of the tyre = 33.73 inch,

Let x be the new speed of the vehicle = $\frac{33.73}{x}$

$\implies \frac{29}{60}=\frac{33.73}{x}$

$\implies x=\frac{33.73\times 60}{29}=69.79\approx 69.8\text{ mph}$

Hence, the actual speed of the vehicle would be 69.8 mph.

OPTION D is correct.

A student on a piano stool rotates freely with an angular speed of 2.85 rev/s . The student holds a 1.50 kg mass in each outstre

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:r'=0.327 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$N=2.85 rev/s$

angular velocity $\omega =2\pi N=17.90 rad/s$

mass of objects $m=1.5 kg$

distance of objects from stool $r_1=0.789 m$

Combined moment of inertia of stool and student $=5.53 kg.m^2$

Now student pull off his hands so as to increase its speed to 3.60 rev/s

$\omega _2=2\pi N_2$

$\omega _2=2\pi 3.6=22.62 rad/s$

Initial moment of inertia of two masses $I_0=2mr_^2$

$I_0=2\times 1.5\times (0.789)^2=1.867$

After Pulling off hands so that r' is the distance of masses from stool

$I_0'=2\times 1.5\times (r')^2$

Conserving angular momentum

$I_1\omega =I_2\omega _2$

$(5.53+1.867)\cdot 17.90=(5.53+I_o')\cdot 22.62$

$I_0'=1.397\times 0.791$

$I_0'=5.851$

$5.53+2\times 1.5\times (r')^2=5.851$

$2\times 1.5\times (r')^2=0.321$

$r'^2=0.107009$

$r'=0.327 m$

The swimming pool at Spring Valley High School is a rectangle with a width of 70 meters and a length of 30 meters. Around the pe

Nadya [2.5K]

The expression for the area of the rectangular swimming pool is given as follows:

A = w² + 100w + 2100.

<h3>What is the area of a rectangle?</h3>

The area of a rectangle of length l and width w is given by the multiplication of these measures, that is:

A = lw.

In this problem, considering the width of 70 meters and a length of 30 meters, plus the floor of w meters, we have that:

l = 30 + w.

wi = 70 + w.

Hence the area is given as follows:

A = l x wi = (30 + w)(70 + w) = w² + 100w + 2100.

there are 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch. how many centimeters are there in 1 foot? in 1 yard? explain your reasoning

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

1 foot = 30.48 centimeters

1 yard = 91.44 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 2.54 centimeters in an inch, and 12 inches in a foot, then you need to multiply 2.54 by 12.

Their are 36 inches in a yard so you need to multiply 2.54 by 36
