Area of a circle is
A= pi r^2
so
500m^2 = 3.14 r2
500/pi = r ^2
152.1549...=r^2
square root both sides
r=12.61566...
d=2r
d=25.2

What is the anomalous expansivity of water
salantis [7]

Answer:

The anomalous expansion of water is an abnormal property of water whereby it expands instead of contracting when the temperature goes from 4°C to 0°C, and it becomes less dense. The density becomes less and less as it freezes because molecules of water normally form open crystal structures when in solid form.

The moment of water from ocean through the atmosphere and back
melisa1 [442]

The water cycle is all about storing water and moving water on, in, and above the Earth. Although the atmosphere may not be a great storehouse of water, it is the superhighway used to move water around the globe. Evaporation and transpiration change liquid water into vapor, which ascends into the atmosphere due to rising air currents. Cooler temperatures aloft allow the vapor to condense into clouds and strong winds move the clouds around the world until the water falls as precipitation to replenish the earthbound parts of the water cycle. About 90 percent of water in the atmosphere is produced by evaporation from water bodies, while the other 10 percent comes from transpiration from plants.

There is always water in the atmosphere. Clouds are, of course, the most visible manifestation of atmospheric water, but even clear air contains water—water in particles that are too small to be seen. One estimate of the volume of water in the atmosphere at any one time is about 3,100 cubic miles (mi3) or 12,900 cubic kilometers (km3). That may sound like a lot, but it is only about 0.001 percent of the total Earth's water volume of about 332,500,000 mi3 (1,385,000,000 km3), If all of the water in the atmosphere rained down at once, it would only cover the globe to a depth of 2.5 centimeters, about 1 inch.

A skater has outstretched arms preparing for a turn with a moment of inertia of
Helen [10]

Answer:

The final angular speed is 16.1 rad/s

Explanation:

Given;

initial moment of inertia, I₁ = 2.56 kg.m²

final moment of inertia, I₂ = 0.40 kg.m²

initial angular speed, ω₁ = 0.4 rev/s = 2.514 rad/s

Apply the principle of conservation of angular momentum;

I₁ω₁ = I₂ω₂

where;

ω₂ is the final angular speed

ω₂ = (I₁ω₁) / (I₂)

ω₂ = (2.56 x 2.514) / (0.4)

ω₂ = 16.1 rad/s

Therefore, the final angular speed is 16.1 rad/s

The temperature of a solution will be estimated by taking n independent readings and averaging them. Each reading is unbiased, w
Viktor [21]

Answer:

68 readings.

Explanation:

We need to take this problem as a statistic problem where the normal distribution table help us.

We can start considerating that X is the temperature of the solution, then

0.9 = P(|\bar{x}-\mu|

0.9 = P(\frac{|\bar{x}-\mu|}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

0.9 = P(|Z|

For a confidence level of 90% our Z_{critic} is 1.645

Therefore,

\frac{0.1}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} = 1.645

Substituting for \sigma = 5 and re-arrange for n, we have that n is equal to

n=(\frac{1.645\sigma}{0.1})^2

n=\frac{(1.645)^2(0.5)^2}{0.1^2}

n=67.65

n=68

We need to make 68 readings for have a probability of 90% and our average is within 0.1\°\frac
