Answer:

-125 degree celcuis

Explanation:

Using the formula;

θ - 0/100 - 0 = 45 - 30/18 - 30

Let us recall that the right hand side refers to the temperature in degrees centigrade while the right hand side stands for the temperatures in the scale of the thermometer. In both cases, the denominator is the fundamental interval.

So, we have;

θ/100 = 15/(-12)

-12θ = 1500

θ = 1500/(-12)

θ = -125 degree celcuis

What is the only component of scalar quantities?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Scalar quantities have a size or magnitude only and need no other information to specify them. Thus, 10 cm, 50 sec, 7 litres and 3 kg are all examples of scalar quantities.

( 8c5p79) A certain force gives mass m1 an acceleration of 13.5 m/s2 and mass m2 an acceleration of 3.5 m/s2. What acceleration
Talja [164]

Answer:

4.725 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

We know that from Newton's second law of motion, F=ma hence making acceleration the subject then a=\frac {F}{m}  where a is acceleration, F is force and m is mass

Also making mass the subject of the formula m=\frac {F}{a}

For m1= \frac {F}{13.5} and m2=\frac {F}{3.5} hence F=(m2-m1)a= (\frac {F}{3.5}-\frac {F}{13.5})a=0.2116402116\\\frac {1}{a}=0.2116402116\\a=4.725 m/s^{2}

A hiker walked a hiking trail according to the chart below. What is a possible explanation of the hiker's movement?
joja [24]
<span>a.The hiker had an easy, level trail from 11:00-12:00 and was able to travel the fastest during that time period.---> may be because this was indeed fastest  stage


b.The hiker got tired and walked the slowest from 1:00-2:00.---> no, because this was not the slowest stage


c.The hiker stopped for lunch from 11:00-12:00 and that slowed him down.---> no because this was the fastest stage


d.The hiker ended up in the same place that he started.---> no, because the hiker walked more toward east than toward west and more toward south than toward north.
