Answer:

1) g=31.87ft/s^2

2)m=120

W=119.64lbf

Explanation:

first part

the weight of a body with mass is calculated by the following equation

W=mg

we convert 120lb to slug

m=120lbx1slug/32.147lb=3.733slug

solving for g

g=W/m

g=119/3.733=31.87ft/s^2

second part

the mass is the same

m=120lb=3.733slug

Weight

W=3.733slug*32.05ft/s^2=119.64lbf

A flywheel performs each of these functions except: A. Contains a gear used for engine starting B. Smoothes engine operation C.
torisob [31]

Answer:

C. Provides lubrication to parts

Explanation:

Flywheel :

 Flywheel is a device which stored the mechanical energy.This energy can be use when more energy required during any operation.Due to high moment of inertia of the flywheel it resist the change in the speed .The flywheel is attached to the crank shaft at the rear side of the engine.

The flywheel perform following function:

1. It connects the crankshaft and the transmission system.

2.It makes the engine operation smooth.

3.It contains gear and other parts of the engine.

But it can not provide lubrication.

Convert 25 mm into in.
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

25 mm = 0.984252 inches

Explanation:

Millimeter and inches are both units of distance. The conversion of millimeter into inches is shown below:

<u>1 mm = 1/25.4 inches</u>

From the question, we have to convert 25 mm into inches

Thus,

<u>25 mm = (1/25.4)*25 inches</u>

So,

25 mm=\frac{25}{25.4} inches

Thus, solving we get:

<u>25 mm = 0.984252 inches</u>

Colonial Adventure Tours calculates the total price of a trip by adding the trip price plus other fees and multiplying the resul
Vilka [71]

Answer:

The following query is used to display TripName. Reservationld, FirstName. LastName and TotalCost of trip by adding the trip price plus other fees and multiplying the result by the number of persons which have number of persons >4.

Query:

SELECT ReservationlD, Trip.TripName. Customer.LastName. Customer.FirstName. (TripPrice+OtherFees) 'NumPersons as TotalCost FROM Reservation, Trip, Customer WHERE NumPersons>4 AND Reservation.TriplD=Trip.TriplD AND

Customer. CustomerNum=Reservation.CustomerNum:

Explanation:

  • Select clause is used to retrieve data from specified database table or relation and returns the data in the form of table.
  • ReservationID. Trip.TripName. Customer.LastName. Customer.FirstName are the column name of table.
  • (TripPrice+OtherFees) 'NumPersons will calculate the total cost of the Trip and stored it into TotalCost column.
  • As clause is used to give new name TotalCost to resultant column.
  • FROM clause specifies one or more table from where records to be retrieved. o Reservation. Trip and Customer are the table name.
  • WHERE clause is used in SQL query to retrieve only those records that satisfy the specified condition

During genetic engineering, how do Restriction enzymes know what base pairs to act on?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The correct/closest option is b

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes are enzymes (endonucleases) that cut short DNA strands at specific sites. Hence, each restriction enzyme has it's own specific site (between two bases) it cuts at. There are two types of end that can be produced by this cut; the blunt end and the sticky end.

A restriction enzyme recognizes (palindromic sequence) and cut in it's own specific end.

For example, if a restriction enzyme cuts between a guanine (G) and an adenine (A), and it cuts a palindromic double stranded DNA in the manner below, it produces a sticky end.

G║AATTC

CTTAA║G

And if a restriction enzyme cuts between guanine (G) and cytosine (C) in the manner below, it produces a blunt end.

GGG║CCC

CCC║GGG

Hence, from the question, restriction enzymes (although chosen by the scientist based on desired sequence to be cut) recognize the sticky or blunt ends itself.

On highways, the far left lane is usually the _____. A. emergency lane B. merge lane C. slowest D. fastest
slamgirl [31]

On highways, the far left lane is usually the<u> fastest</u> moving traffic.

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the most part, the right lane of a freeway is for entering and leaving the traffic stream. It is an arranging path, for use toward the start and end of your interstate run. The center paths are for through traffic, and the left path is for passing. On the off chance that you are not passing somebody, try not to be driving in the left path.

Regular practice and most law on United States expressways is that the left path is saved for passing and quicker moving traffic, and that traffic utilizing the left path must respect traffic wishing to surpass.
