Answer:

The three consecutive odd integers are: -11, -13 and -15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smallest number be represented by x. then the three consecutive odd integers are: x, (x + 2) and (x = 4).

The sum of the smallest number and twice the larges number = x + 2(x + 4)

Fifteen more than four times the middle number = 4(x + 2) + 15

So that;

x + 2(x + 4) = 4(x + 2) + 15

x + 2x + 8 = 4x + 8 + 15

3x + 8 = 4x + 23

3x - 4x = 23 - 8

-1x = 15

⇒ x = -15

  (x + 2) = (-15 + 2) = -13

  (x + 4) = (-15 + 4) = -11

The three consecutive odd integers are: -11, -13 and -15.

The mass of a proton is approximately 1.67 x 10−24, and the mass of an electron is approximately 9.11 x 10−28. Find the approxim
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

≈ 1833

Step-by-step explanation:

To find ratio of proton mass to electron mass, we have to divide.

The numbers are given in <em>scientific notation</em>.

Let a number be  a*10^b and another be  c*10^d, when we divide, we will follow the rule shown below:

\frac{a*10^b}{c*10^d}=(\frac{a}{c}*10^{b-d})

Now, we use the information given to find the ratio:

\frac{1.67*10^{-24}}{9.11*10^{-28}}\\=(\frac{1.67}{9.11}*10^{-24--28})\\=0.1833*10^4

This means we can find the number by taking 4 decimal places to the right, so that would becomes:

0.1833*10^4=1833

The approximate ratio is 1833 [mass of proton is around 1833 times heavier than mass of electron]

The dimensions of a conical funnel are shown below: A conical funnel is shown with the height of the cone as 7 inches and the ra
Nataly [62]
The first thing we should know in this case is that by definition the flow of liquid is given by:
 Q = V / t
 Where,
 V: volume
 t: time
 The volume of the cone is given by:
 V = (pi * r ^ 2 * h) / (3)
 Where,
 r: radio
 h: height
 Substituting the values we have:
 V = (3.14 * ((3) ^ 2) * 7) / (3)
 V = 65.94 in ^ 3
 We now turn off the time of the flow equation:
 t = V / Q
 Substituting values:
 t = (65.94) / (14)
 t = 4.71 minutes
 Answer:
 It will take for all the liquid in the funnel to pass through the nozzle about:
 t = 4.71 minutes
