Raquel has created a program for a robot. The robot travels 10 meters and stops. The program is designed for wheels that are 2.5

cm in diameter. When Raquel replaces the wheels with ones having a 2.75 cm diameter, how should she adjust the number of rotations so that the robot travels the same distance?

Answer:

Raquel should adjust the number of rotations  to 115.81 rotations

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the circumference of the wheels that are 2.5 cm in diameter

The circumference is equal to

C=2\pi r

we have

r=2.5/2=1.25\ cm

assume

\pi =3.14

substitute

C=2(3.14) (1.25)

C=7.85\ cm

step 2

Find the number of rotations

Divide 10 meters by the circumference

10\ m=1,000\ cm

1,000/7.85=127.39\ rotations

step 3

For a diameter of 2.75 cm find how should she adjust the number of rotations so that the robot travels the same distance

Find the circumference of the wheels

The circumference is equal to

C=2\pi r

we have

r=2.75/2=1.375\ cm

assume

\pi =3.14

substitute

C=2(3.14) (1.375)

C=8.635\ cm

step 4

Find the number of rotations

Divide 10 meters by the circumference

10\ m=1,000\ cm

1,000/8.635=115.81\ rotations

What do you understand about the functions of parasympathetic system?
mina [271]
The parasympathetic nervous system (usually abbreviated PSNS, not PNS, to avoid confusion with the peripheral nervous system) is one of the three divisions of the autonomic nervous system, the others being the sympathetic nervous system and enteric nervous system.[1][2] The autonomic nervous system is responsible for regulating the body's unconscious actions. The parasympathetic system is responsible for stimulation of "rest-and-digest" or "feed and breed"[3] activities that occur when the body is at rest, especially after eating, including sexual arousal, salivation, lacrimation (tears), urination, digestion and defecation. Its action is described as being complementary to that of the sympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for stimulating activities associated with the fight-or-flight response.

Tim must read 2 books from a list of 7 recommended books for his summer reading program. In how many different ways can Tim choo
Marianna [84]

There are 21 ways Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended book

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that Tim must read 2 books from a list of 7 recommended books for his summer reading program

To find: different ways can Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended books

This is a combination problem

A combination is a selection of all or part of a set of objects, without regard to the order in which objects are selected

<em><u>The formula for combinations is:</u></em>

n C_{r}=\frac{n !}{r !(n-r) !}

where n represents the number of items, and r represents the number of items being chosen at a time

Here we have to choose 2 books from 7 books

Therefore, n = 7 and r = 2

<em><u>Substituting values in above formula, we get</u></em>

\begin{aligned}&7 C_{2}=\frac{7 !}{2 !(7-2) !}\\\\&7 C_{2}=\frac{7 !}{2 ! \times 5 !}\end{aligned}

For a number n, the factorial of n can be written as,

n !=n \times(n-1) \times(n-2) \dots \dots \times 2 \times 1

Therefore, we get

7 C_{2}=\frac{7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}\\\\7C_2 = 7 \times 3 = 21

Thus there are 21 ways Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended book

a baker used 660 boxes of cake mix to make a wedding cake. if each box called for 3 eggs, how many dozen eggs were used to make
yanalaym [24]
We know there’s 660 boxes and each box called for 3 eggs, therefore:

660=3X

when divide both sides by 3 to isolate the x, which will tell us the amount of eggs used…

660/3 = 220

Nick had 3 1/4 bottles of water for his wrestling practice when he finished he had 124 bottles of water left he said he used to
Ostrovityanka [42]
Nick had 3 1/4 bottles before, and he had 1 2/4 bottles left, so that means
3 1/4 - 1 2/4 =  1.75
1.75= 1 3/4.
So, I do not agree with nick.

Hope this helps!!!   :)
