Answer:

44 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since B is the mid-point of AC

AB=BC

or,4x+14=x+20

or, 4x-x=20-14

or 3x=6

or,x=6/3=2

AC=AB+BC

= 4x+14+x+20

= 4(2) + 14 +2 +20

= 8+14+22

=44 units

Answer:

44 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that B is the midpoint of AC, so by definition, AB = BC. Thus, set the two expressions equal and solve for x:

AB = BC

4x + 14 = x + 20

3x = 6

x = 2

Given that x = 2, plug this into the expression for AB and BC and add them to get AC:

AC = AB + BC = 4 * 2 + 14 + 2 + 20 = 44

Hence, AC is 44 units.

Hope this helps!

An aluminum rod 0.500 m in length and with a cross-sectional area of 2.20 cm2 is inserted into a thermally insulated vessel cont
netineya [11]

Answer:

a). V_{He}   = 14.6208 litres : b). = 0.29844 Litres/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

a).

Step 1.

Volume when one half of rod is inserted = (50/2)*(2.2) = 55cm³

Step 2.

As we know that,

V_{He} = (ρV_{c}IΔT)_{Al} / (ρL_{v})H_{c}                     where H_{c} = 290 - 4.2 = 285.8K

                                                        sepecififc heat of aluminum = 0.215 cal/g

                                                                                      density = 2.7 g/cm3

      = (2.7)*(55)*(0.215)*(285.8) / (0.125)*(20900)*(1/4186)

V_{He}   = 14.6208 litres

b).

Step 1.

As we know that

  P = kA(dT/dx) = 31*2.2*[(290-4.2)/25]

                         = 779.6624 W

Step 2.

Now, approximate boil rate of helium is:

P/ρL_{v}= [(779.6624)*(10^3g/kg)] / [(0.125)*(20900)]

         = 0.29844 Litres/sec

Kenji packed an exercise ball into a cylindrical package . How much space does the package occupy in terms of pi . Enter your an
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The space that the package would occupy is 45\pi cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The space that the package occupies is the volume of the cylinder. The volume of an object is the 3 dimensional capacity of the object.

Volume of a cylinder = \pir^{2}h

where: r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder.

Given that; h = 5 feet and r = 3 feet.

The required volume = \pi × (3)^{2} × 5

                                   = \pi  × 9 × 5

                                  = 45\pi cubic feet

The space that the package would occupy is 45\pi cubic feet.
