Answer:

The answer is screw x

Explanation:

A screw is an inclined plane that spirals around a cylinder. To help visualize this, imagine a playground slide that sprirals around a central pole. The threads on a screw are the outside edge of a plane that wraps around the screw's central axis.

The closer together a screw's threads are, the longer the inclined plane. The longer the inclined plane, the less effort force required to turn the screw. The screw in image X requires the least amount of effort force to turn because its threads are the closest together.

Answer:

Screw X

Explanation:

In the screw x, the threads of the inclined plane are closer together. Therefore this screw has a greater mechanical advantage and hence it is easier to turn than the other screws.
Therefore,it takes less force to penetrate the wood with the screw X.

Which types of numbers does scientific notation best describe?

Travka [436]

The correct answer is
c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
 $0.0000000001$
we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
 $1\cdot 10^{-10}$
2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
 $10000000000$
we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
 $1 \cdot 10^{10}$
