Marat540 [252]

Answer:

602.42 million

Step-by-step explanation:

I know the answer is 602.42 million because I used addition and subtraction.

First, I knew there was 5.66x 107 million students. So, I multiplied 5.66 and 107, and I got 605.62 million. I knew there were 3.2 million teachers in the US. Next, I subtracted 3.2 million from 605.62 million.

605.62-3.2=602.42

So, there are 602.42 million more students than teachers in the United States.

The force on an area 16 m by 12 m is 24,000 N. What is the pressure per square meter?
Dmitrij [34]
Recall that 
Pressure = Force ÷ Area

In this context we have,
Pressure = 24,000 ÷ (16 × 12)
               = 24,000 ÷ 192
               = 125 Pa

Each space is 14.8nm, the total  distance would be: 104 space x 14.8 nm/space= 1539.2nm
