Jane and Jack have a bicycling competition Jane rides a constant speed of 12 miles per hour while Jack rides at a constant speed

of 330 feet per minute. How fast are Jane and Jack going in meters per second? Who finishes first? Show your factor-label method work. There are 5280 feet in one mile. There are 3.281 feet in one meter

Answer:

Explanation:

I don't know how you want the conversion done. I use dimensional analysis.

Jane

12 miles / hour [1.6 km/1 mile][1000 m/1 km][1 hour / 3600 sec]

12 * [1.6 * 3600 / 1000  m/s] = 69.12 m/s

5.33 m/s      This answer is a bit shorter than using 5280 feet.

Using 5280 feet

12 miles / hour [5280 ft/1 mile] [1 m/3.281 feet] * [1 hr/3600 sec]

12 * 5280 / (3.281 * 3600)

12 *. 4470

5.36

Jack

330 feet / minute [ 1 meter / 3.281 feet] [1 minute / 60 seconds]

330 * 1/(3.281 * 60)

330 * 1/(196.86)

1.676 m/s

She's going faster than he is, no matter which method is used to do the calculation

The appropriate mixing ratio for a solution to kill blood borne pathogens is 1 part chlorine to 10 parts water if you are mixing
jarptica [38.1K]

To solve this problem, all we have to do it to make use of the principle of ratio and proportion. We are given the following ratio:

1 part Chlorine / 10 parts Water

Now to determine the amount of chlorine needed for 15 ounces of water, all we have to do is to use proportion. Let us say that the amount of Chlorine needed is x, therefore:

1 part Chlorine / 10 parts Water = x / 15 ounces Water

so,

1 / 10 = x / 15

Therefore calculating for x:

x = 15 / 10

<span>x = 1.5 ounces of Chlorine</span>

How many moles of sodium phosphate would be required to react with 1.0 mol of silver nitrate
WITCHER [35]
1) State the balanced chemical equation

Na3 PO4                  + 3 AgNO3        → 3NaNO3        +        Ag3 PO4

sodium phosphate        silver nitrate       sodium nitrate    silver phosphate

2) State the molar ratios

1 mol Na3PO4 : 3 mol AgNO3 : 3 mol NaNO3 : 1 mol Ag3 PO4

3) As you see 3 moles of Silver Nitrate react with 1 mol of Na3 PO4, then you will need.

The you need to use the molar ratio 1:3 to calculate the number of moles of sodium phosphate

1 mol Ag NO3 * [ 1 mol Na3 PO4 / 3 mol Ag NO3] = 0.33 mol Na3 PO4

Answer: 0.33 mol sodium phosphate

476 nm = 4.76x10^[?] cm
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

4.76×10¯⁵ cm

Explanation:

We'll begin by converting 476 nm to m. This can be obtained as follow:

1 nm = 1×10¯⁹ m

Therefore,

476 nm = 476 nm × 1×10¯⁹ m / 1 nm

476 nm = 4.76×10¯⁷ m

Finally, we shall convert 4.76×10¯⁷ m to cm. This can be obtained as follow:

1 m = 100 cm

Therefore,

4.76×10¯⁷ m = 4.76×10¯⁷ m × 100 cm / 1 m

4.76×10¯⁷ m = 4.76×10¯⁵ cm

Thus,

476 nm = 4.76×10¯⁵ cm
