Answer:

$ 30

Explanation:

Capacity of tank = 12 gallon

Cost of one gallon = $ 2.50

The cost of 12 gallon = 12 x 2.50 = $ 30

Thus, the cost of 12 gallon fuel is $ 30.

Answer:

$ 18.75            

Explanation:

given,                                              

capacity of the Dave’s car = 12 gallons

Assuming that the tank is 3/8 full before

Cost of gas per gallon =  $2.50 per gallon of gas

Volume Dave have to fill                      

       =1 - \dfrac{3}{8}                          

       =\dfrac{5}{8} of full tank              

       =\dfrac{5}{8}\times 12              

volume Dave have to fill = 7.5 gallons          

total money Dave spent                  

     = 7.5 gallons x $2.50                

     = $ 18.75                                            

Dave have to spend $ 18.75 to fill tank to it capacity.

Is a force necessary to keep an object in motion?
weqwewe [10]
Well according to Newton’s first law of motion, a body will remain in the state of rest or linear motion provided that an *external force* has been applied. So no, a force doesn’t need to keep a body to remain in linear motion, because F=ma, during uniform linear motion velocity is constant, hence acceleration is zero, so F=0

How many significant digits should the answer to the following problem have? (2.49303 g) * (2.59 g) / (7.492 g) =
Feliz [49]

The number of significant digits to the answer of the following problem is four.

<h3>What are the significant digits?</h3>

The number of digits rounded to the approximate integer values are called the significant digits.

The following problem is

(2.49303 g) * (2.59 g) / (7.492 g) =

On solving we get

= 0.86184566204

The answer is approximated to  0.86185

Thus, the significant digits must be four.

Water flows without friction vertically downward through a pipe and enters a section where the cross sectional area is larger. T
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

v_{2} will be less than v_{1} and P_{2} will be greater than P_{1}.

Explanation:

As we know from the conservation of mass, the rate at which any amount of fluid mass (m_{1}) is entering in a system is equal to the rate at which the same amount of fluid mass (m_{2}) is leaving the system.

Rate of mass flow can be written as,

m = \rho A v

where \rho is the density of the fluid, A is the area through which the fluid is flowing and v is the velocity of the fluid.

Now, according to the problem, as the density of the fluid does not change, we can write

&& m_{1} = m_{2}\\&or,& \rho A_{1} v_{1} = \rho A_{2} v_{2}\\&or,& \dfrac{v_{2}}{v_{1}} = \dfrac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}

where A_{1} and A_{2} are the cross-sectional areas through which the fluid is passing and v_{1} and v_{2} are the velocities of the fluid through the respective cross-sectional areas.

As according to the problem, A_{2} > A_{1}, so from the above formula v_{2} < v_{1}.

Also we know that fluid pressure is created by the motion of the fluid through any area. When the fluid gains speed, some of its energy is used to move faster in the fluid’s direction of motion. It causes in a lower pressure.

So, as in this case v_{2} < v_{1} the pressure in the large cross-sectional area P_{2} will be greater than the pressure  P_{1} in the small cross sectional area, i.e.,

P_{2} > P_{1}.

How does the mass of an object affect its acceleration during free fall
ira [324]

The mass of an object has no effect whatsoever on the object's
acceleration during free-fall.  If there is no air resistance to interfere
with the natural effects of gravity, then a feather and a battleship ...
dropped at the same time ... fall together, and hit the ground at the
same time.
