Crank3 years ago
5 0

solution:

1yd^3=(0.9144m)^3\\
therefore,\\
150yd^3=150yd^3\times\frac{(0.9144m)^3}{1yd^3}\\
=114.68m^3
convert m^3 to cm^3by the conversion factor as follow\\
1m^3=(100)cm^3\\
114.68m^3=114.68\times\frac{(100cm)3}{1m^3}\\
convert cm^3 to mL by the conversion factor as follow\\
1cm^3=1mL\\
114.68\times10^6cm^3=114.68\times10^6cm^3\times\frac{1mL}{1cm^3}\\
=114.68\times10^6mL\\
convert mL to g by the conversion factor as follow\\
1mL=1g\\therefore,\\
114.68\times10^6mL=114.68\times10^6mL\times\frac{1g}{1mL}\\
114.68\times10^6g\\
convert g to kg the conversion factor as follow\\
1g=10^-3kg\\
therefore,\\
114.68\times10^6=114.68\times10^6g\times\frac{10^-3kg}{1g}\\
=114.68\times10^3kg\\
convert kg to Ib by the conversion factor as follow\\
1kg=2.2Ib\\
therefore,\\
114.68\times10^3kg=114.68\times10^3kg\times\frac{2.2Ib}{1kg}\\
=2.52\times10^5Ib

Based on the data given, in what direction will the car accelerate?
skad [1K]
Vertical forces:
There is a force of 579N acting upward, and a force of 579N
acting downward.
The vertical forces are balanced ... they add up to zero ...
so there's no vertical acceleration. 
Not up, not down.

Horizontal forces:
There is a force of 487N acting to the left, and a force of 632N
acting to the right.
The net horizontal force is

        (487-left + 632-right)  -  (632-right - 487-right) =  145N to the right.

The net force on the car is all to the right.
The car accelerates to the right.

Shay reacts solid zinc and aqueous copper sulfate to form aqueous zinc sulfate and solid copper. If he reacts 10.1 grams of zinc
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Now since mass of reactant is equal to mass of the product after the reaction so we can say that mass conservation is applicable here

Explanation:

As we know that zinc reacts with copper sulfate

so the reaction is given as

Zn + CuSO_4 --> ZnSO_4 + Cu

so here we have

Zn = 10.1 g

CuSO_4 = 18.6 g

ZnSO_4 = 20 g

Cu = 8.7 g

Now total mass of reactant is given as

M_1 = 10.1 + 18.6 = 28.7 g

Mass of the product is given as

M_2 = 20 + 8.7 = 28.7 g

Now since mass of reactant is equal to mass of the product after the reaction so we can say that mass conservation is applicable here

What is the half-life of a compound if 75 percent of a given sample of the compound decomposes in 60 min? assume first-order kin
LenKa [72]
The amount left of a given substance can be calculated through the equation,
                                              A = (A0) x 0.5^n/h
From the given scenario, 
                                           A/A0 = 0.75 = 0.5*(60/h)
The value of h from the equation is 144.565 minutes.
