Which is the correct formula for converting degrees Farhrenhiet to degrees Celsius

Physics
1 answer:
Leya [2.2K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C = 5/9 x (F-32)

Explanation:

Formula for converting Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius (C):

C = 5/9 x (F-32)

The notation C represents the temperature in Celsius, and F is the temperature in Fahrenheit. After you know the formula, it is easy to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius with these three steps.

1.Subtract 32 from the Fahrenheit temperature.

2.Multiply this number by five.

3.Divide the result by nine.

For example, suppose the temperature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit and you want to know what the figure would be in Celsius. Use the above three steps:

C = 5/9 x (F - 32)

C = 5/9 x (98.6 - 32)

C = 5/9 x (66.6)

C = 37 C

A helicopter (m = 3250 kg) is cruising at a speed of 56.9 m/s atan altitude of 185 m. What is the total mechanical energy of the
taurus [48]

Answer:

The mechanical energy of the helicopter is 1.12\times 10^7\ J.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the helicopter, m = 3250 kg

Speed of the helicopter, v = 56.9 m/s

Position of the helicopter, h = 185 m

The energy possessed by an object due to its motion is called its kinetic energy. It is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3250\times (56.9)^2  

E=5.26\times 10^6\ J

The energy possessed by an object due to its position is called its potential energy. It is given by :

E=mgh

E=3250\times 9.8\times 185  

E=5.89\times 10^6\ J

The sum of kinetic and potential energy is called mechanical energy of the system. It is given by :

M=5.26\times 10^6+5.89\times 10^6

M=11.15\times 10^6\ J

or

M=1.12\times 10^7\ J

So, the mechanical energy of the helicopter is 1.12\times 10^7\ J. Hence, this is the required solution.

21 of 35 Review A friend of yours is loudly singing a single note at 401 HzHz while racing toward you at 23.0 m/sm/s on a day wh
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

The frequency of the sound note as heard = 429 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of sound waves as heard from a distance for a sound wave coming towards one at v₀ m/s and whose real frequency is f₀ is given by

+f = f₀/[1 - (v₀/v)]

+f = frequency of sound as heard from the distance away = ?

f₀ = real frequency of sound = 401 Hz

v₀ = velocity at which the sound source is moving towards the reference point = 23.0 m/s

v = velocity of sound waves = 343 m/s

+f = 401/[1 - (23/343)]

+f = 429 Hz

A silver bar 0.125 meter long is subjected to a temperature change from 200°C to 100°C. What will be the length of the bar after
Delicious77 [7]
\Delta L=  \alpha L_0 (T_f-T_i)

= (18 x 10^-6 /°C)(0.125 m)(100° C - 200 °C)

= -0.00225 m

New length = L + ΔL
= 1.25 m + (-0.00225 m)
= 1.248

A 2kg object initially going 4m/s to the right is later going 8m/s. whats the change in velocity?
Nezavi [6.7K]

The change in velocity is +4 m/s to the right (or -4 m/s to the left).

The object's mass is irrelevant.
