You know that there are 1,609 meters in a mile. The number of feet in a mile is 5,280. Use these equalities to

1 answer:

6 0

Part a).

You said that 1,609 meters = 5,280 feet

We know that 1 meter = 100 centimeters, and 1 foot = 12 inches.

So (1,609 meters) x (100 centimeters/meter) = (5,280 feet) x (12 inches/foot)

The second fraction on each side of the equation is equal to ' 1 ', because
the numerator is equal to the denominator, so sticking it in there doesn't
change the value of that side of the equation. But now we can cancel some
units,and wind up with the units we need.

   (1,609 meters) x (100 centimeters/meter) = (5,280 feet) x (12 inches/foot)

   (1,609 x100) centimeters = (5,280 x 12) inches

   160,900 centimeters = 63,360 inches

Divide each side by 63,360 : <em> 2.54 centimeters = 1 inch</em>

part b).

I haven't seen the snail, or anything else in problem 7,
so there's no way I can answer this part.

Which change would decrease the total current, I, flowing through this circuit?

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

A. Increasing the voltage of the battery

Explanation:

The relationship between voltage, V, current, I and resistance, R, is given as follows;

V = I × R

∴ I = V/R

From the above relationship, the current flowing in the circuit is directly proportional to the voltage of the battery, and inversely proportional to the resistance, 'R', of the circuit

Therefore, increasing the voltage, 'V', of the battery, increases the total current, 'I', flowing in the circuit.

A force of 45 N is applied tangentially to the rim of a solid disk of radius 0.12 m. The disk rotates about an axis through its

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Mass of the disk will be 2.976 kg

Explanation:

We have given force F = 45 N

Radius of the disk r = 0.12 m

Angular acceleration $\alpha =140rad/sec^2$

We know that torque $\tau =I\alpha$

And $\tau =Fr$

So $Fr=I\alpha$ , here I is moment of inertia

So $50\times 0.12=I\times 140$

$I=0.0428kgm^2$

We know that moment of inertia $I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2$

So $0.0428=\frac{1}{2}\times m\times 0.12^2$

m = 2.976 kg
