Answer:

maybe take a really common toy kids play with or often see, find the average height for the toy and do the math to see how many of those toys stacked ontop of eachother would make up 2000 feet. For example (this isn't accurate btw just an idea of what it would sound like but) "Have you ever seen a barbie doll? well if you stack 400 barbie dolls ontop of their head it would be equal to 2000 feet."

Explanation:

sometimes taking common or beloved objects children have into your examples makes them have a better image of how small or how big something is.

Describe with an example how corroded structures can lead to environment pollution?

raketka [301]

According to EonCoat, corrosion is the process of decay on a material caused by a chemical reaction with its environment. Corrosion of metal occurs when an exposed surface comes in contact with a gas or liquid, and the process is accelerated by exposure to warm temperature, acids, and salts.” (1)
Although the word ‘corrosion’ is used to describe the decay of metals, all natural and man-made materials are subject to decay, and the level of pollutants in the air can speed up this process.

Find the Rectangular form of the following phasors?

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The angles are missing in the question.

The angles are :

45, 30, 60, 90, -34, -56, 20, -42, -65, -15

P=10, P=5, P=25, P=54, P=65, P=95, P=250, P=8, P=35, P=150

Explanation:

1. P = 10, θ = 45° rectangular coordinates

x = r cosθ , y = r sinθ

So, rectangular form is x + iy

x = P cosθ = 10 cos 45°

= 7.07

y =P sinθ = 10 sin 45°

= 7.07

Therefore, rectangular form

x + iy = 7.07 + i (7.07)

2. P = 5 , θ = 30°

x = 5 cos 30° = 4.33

y = 5 sin 30° = 2.5

So, (x+iy) = 4.33 + i (2.5)

3. P = 25 , θ = 60°

x = 25 cos 60° = 12.5

y = 25 sin 60° = 21.65

So, (x+iy) = 12.5 + i (21.65)

4. P = 54 , θ = 90°

x = 54 cos 90° = 0

y = 54 sin 90° = 54

So, (x+iy) = 0+ i (54)

5. P = 65 , θ = -34°

x = 65 cos (-34°) = 53.88

y = 65 sin (-34°) = -36.34

So, (x+iy) = 53.88 - i (36.34)

6. P = 95 , θ = -56°

x = 95 cos (-56)° = 53.12

y = 95 sin (-56)° = -78.75

So, (x+iy) = 53.12 - i (78.75)

7. P = 250 , θ = 20°

x = 250 cos 20° = 234.92

y = 250 sin 20° = 85.5

So, (x+iy) = 234.92 + i (85.5)

8. P = 8 , θ = (-42)°

x = 8 cos (-42)° = 5.94

y = 8 sin (-42)° = -5.353

So, (x+iy) = 5.94 - i (5.353)

9. P = 35 , θ = (-65)°

x = 35 cos (-65)° = 14.79

y = 35 sin (-65)° = -31.72

So, (x+iy) = 14.79 - i (31.72)

10. P = 150 , θ = (-15)°

x = 150 cos (-15)° = 144.88

y = 150 sin (-15)° = -38.82

So, (x+iy) = 144.88 - i (38.82)

A motorist enters a freeway at 25 mi/h and accelerates uniformly to 65 mi/h. From the odometer in the car, the motorist knows th

Helga [31]

Answer:

a) 2.2 m/s² b) 8 s

Explanation:

a) Assuming that the acceleration is constant, we can use any of the kinematic equations to solve the question.

As we don´t know the time needed to accelerate, we can use the following equation:

vf2 – vo2 = 2*a*∆x

At first, we can convert the values of vf, vo and ∆x, to SI units, as follows:

vf = 65 mi/h* (1,605 m / 1mi) * (1h/3,600 sec) = 29 m/s

vo = 25 mi/h *(1,605 m / 1mi) * (1h/3,600 sec) = 11.2 m/s

∆x = 0.1 mi*(1,605 m / 1mi) = 160.5 m

Replacing these values in (1), and solving for a, we have:

a = (29 m/s – 11.2 m/s) / 321 m = 2.2 m/s2

b) In order to obtain the time needed to reach to 65 mi/h, we can rearrange the equation for the definition of acceleration, as follows:

vf = vo + at

Replacing by the values already known for vo, vf and a, and solving for t, we get:

t = vf-vo /a = (29 m/s – 11.2 m/s) / 2.2 m/s = 8 sec

"Write a statement that outputs variable numItems. End with a newline. Program will be tested with different input values."

kirill [66]

Answer:

The solution code is written in Java.

System.out.println(numItems);

Explanation:

Java println() method can be used to display any string on the console terminal. We can use println() method to output the value held by variable numItems. The numItems is passed as the input parameter to println() and this will output the value of numItems to console terminal and at the same time the output with be ended with a newline automatically.

Answer:

The correct option is;

c. Leaving the chuck key in the drill chuck

Explanation:

A Common safety issues with a drill press leaving the chuck key in the drill chuck

It is required that, before turning the drill press power on, ensure that chuck key is removed from the chuck. A self ejecting chuck key reduces the likelihood of the chuck key being accidentally left in the chuck.

It is also required to ensure that the switch is in the OFF position before turning plugging in the power cable

Be sure that the chuck key is removed from the chuck before turning on the power. Using a self-ejecting chuck key is a good way of insuring that the key is not left in the chuck accidentally. Also to avoid accidental starting, make sure the switch is in the OFF position before plugging in the cord. Always disconnect the drill from the power source when making repairs.
