Meteorology A Weather forecaster uses a barometer to measure air pressure and make weather predictions. Suppose a standard mercu

ry barometer reads 29.8 in. The mercury rises 0.02 in. And then false 0.09 in . The mercury falls again 0.18 in. Before rising 0.07 in. What does the word "rise" suggest? What does the word "fall" suggest?

Answer:

rise : atmospheric pressure increases

fall : atmospheric pressure decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

In the context, it is given that a weather forecaster takes the help of the barometer to check the air pressure and predicts the weather. The column of mercury level in the barometer shows a rise or fall in the glass tube as the weight of the atmosphere falling on the mercury surface changes.

Here it is given that the mercury rises for 0.02 in, then it falls 0.09 in,  it then rises by 0.07 in and then again falls by 0.18 in. The word "rise" here shows that the weight of the atmosphere is more. In other words, increase in atmospheric pressure increases the level of mercury in the glass tube and the decrease in or "fall" in the mercury level shows the drop in atmospheric pressure.

A large serving of soup from a take-out restaurant is 4/5 liter. The restaurant has 3 liters of soup. The diagram below models t
Airida [17]

Answer:

The quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = T = 2 \dfrac{2}{5} liters .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The quantity of large serving soup = \dfrac{4}{5}  liters

The total quantity of soup does restaurant has = 3 liters

Let the quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = T liters

So, According to question

The quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = The quantity of large serving soup × total quantity of soup does restaurant has

Or, T =  \dfrac{4}{5} × 3

Or, T =  \frac{4\times 3}{5}

Or, T =  \dfrac{12}{5}

∴   T = 2 \dfrac{2}{5} liters

So, quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = T = 2 \dfrac{2}{5} liters

Hence,The quantity of total serving soup does restaurant has = T = 2 \dfrac{2}{5} liters . Answer

On a package of rice, the directions say that the ratio of cups of water to cups of uncooked rice should be 1: 1 2 . a. What is
iragen [17]
A) To cook 1/2 cup of rice, the package tells you that you also need 1 cup of water. The the total volume of ingredients is
.. 1/2 c + 1 c = 1 1/2 c


b) According to the package the ratio of water to rice is
.. water : rice = 1 : 1/2 = 2 : 1
Then the ratio of water to total ingredients is
.. water : (water + rice) = 2 : (2 +1) = 2 : 3

Susan's ratio is incorrect. Susan is using "1" for the total of ingredients, instead of 2+1 = 3. The correct ratio is 2:3.
