Platinum has a density of 21.4 g/cm3. if thieves were to steal platinum from a bank using a small truck with a maximum payload o
slega [8]
We will convert the 1dm3 in terms of cm3 as follows:

1dm^3 = (10 cm)^3
= 1000 cm^3

The mass of platinum is equal to 900 lb. 
Then we will convert the mass in terms of grams as follows:
1 lb = 453.6 g
900 = 900 x 453.6 g
= 408240 g

Then density of platinum is equal to 21.4 g/cm^3 
We will calculate the volume of platinum in mass 408240 g as follows:
Volume of platinum = mass of platinum / density of platinum
= 408240 g / 21.4 g/cm^3 
= 19076.6 cm^3  

The total volume of platinum is 19076.6 cm^3
The volume of platinum in 1 L bar is 1000cm^3
So, to calculate the number of bars we will use the formula as follows;
Number of bars = volume of platinum available / volume of platinum required in 1 L bar
= 19076.6 cm^3 / 1000 cm^3
= 19
So, the number of bars are 19.

5. A family leaves for an evening walk around the neighborhood. They leave at 5 pm and return at 6 pm. They traveled a total of
vlabodo [156]

This question involves the concepts of average speed, distance, and time.

The average speed of the family is "2.5 mi/hr".

<h3>AVERAGE SPEED</h3>

The average speed is defined as the ratio of the total distance covered with the total time taken to cover it.

v=\frac{s}{t}

where,

  • s = distance covered = 2.5 miles
  • t = total time taken = 1 hour
  • v = average speed = ?

Therefore,

v=\frac{2.5\ mi}{1\ hr}

v = 2.5 mi/hr

The Earth and the Moon are attracted to each other by universal gravitation. The Earth is much more massive than is the Moon. Do
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Earth attract the Moon with a force that is greater.

Explanation:

According to the law of gravitation, the gravitational force between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Mathematically, F1 = Gm1m2/r²... 1

Let m1 be the mass of the earth and m2 be that of the moon

If the Earth is much more massive than is the Moon, the new force of attraction between them will become;

F2= G(2m1)m2/r²

F2 = 2Gm1m2/r² ... (2)

Dividing eqn 1 by 2 we have;

F1/F2 = (Gm1m2/r²)÷(2Gm1m2/r²)

F1/F2 = Gm1m2/r²×r²/2Gm1m2

F1/F2 = 1/2

F2=2F1

This shows that that the earth will attract the moon by a force 2times the initial force of the masses(i.e a much greater force)
