A body accelerates due to net force acting on it. As newton's second law of motion states:

when a net force acts on a body, it produces acceleration in the body in the direction of the net force

Pamela drove her car 999999 kilometers and used 999 liters of fuel. she wants to know how many kilometers (k)(k)left parenthesis
Vanyuwa [196]
When the relationship between two variables are said to be proportional, it means that one variable is a constant multiple of the other variable. They are related by a constant of proportionality, usually denoted as k. 

In this problem, the dependent variable is the distance in kilometers. Your mileage is limited with the amount of fuel you have. Thus, the independent variable is the liters of fuel. When these two are proportional, it could be expressed as

distance = k * liters of fuel, such that 
distance/liters of fuel = k

By variation,

distance,1/liters of fuel,1 = distance,2/liters of fuel,2, where 1 denotes situation 1 and 2 denotes situation 2. Therefore,

 999999 km /<span>999 liters =  x km /</span><span>121212 liters, where x is the unknown distance. We can now therefore find the value of x.

x = (999999*121212)/999
x = 121333212 kilometers</span>

lisov135 [29]
So the equation for angular velocity is

Omega = 2(3.14)/T

Where T is the total period in which the cylinder completes one revolution.

In order to find T, the tangential velocity is

V = 2(3.14)r/T

When calculated, I got V = 3.14

When you enter that into the angular velocity equation, you should get 2m/s

Kimonoski takes a 9-minute shower every day. The shower uses about 1.8 gal per minute of water. He also uses 23 gallons of hot w
ioda

Answer:

Q_{week} = 458884.6\, BTU

Explanation:

The weekly water consumption of Kimonoski is:

m_{bath,week} = (62.4\,\frac{lbm}{ft^{3}})\cdot (1.8\,\frac{gal}{min} )\cdot (\frac{0.134\,ft^{3}}{1\,gal} )\cdot (\frac{1\,min}{60\,s} )\cdot (9\,min)\cdot (\frac{60\,s}{1\,min} )\cdot (7\,\frac{days}{week} )\cdot (1\,week)

m_{bath.week} = 948.205\,lbm

m_{others, week} = (62.4\,\frac{lbm}{ft^{3}})\cdot (23\,gal)\cdot (\frac{0.134\,ft^{3}}{1\,gal} )\cdot (7\,\frac{days}{week} )\cdot (1\,week)

m_{others, week} = 1346.218\,lbm

m_{week} = m_{bath,week} + m_{others, week}

m_{week} = 2294.423\,lbm

The total energy required per week for hot water is:

Q_{week} = m_{week}\cdot c_{p,water}\cdot \Delta T

Q_{week} =(2294.423\,lbm)\cdot (1\,\frac{BTU}{lbm\cdot ^{\textdegree}F} )\cdot (50^{\textdegree}F)

Q_{week} = 458884.6\, BTU

How many significant figures do each of the following numbers have: (a) 214, (b) 81.60, (c) 7.03, (d) 0.03, (e) 0.0086, (f) 3236
Korolek [52]

In determining the number of significant figures in a given number, there are three rules to always remember / follow:

First: All integers except zero are always significant.

<span>Second: Any zeros located between  non zeroes are always significant.</span>

Third: A zero located after a non zero in a decimal is always significant whether it is before or after the decimal

 

Therefore using this rule, the number of significant digits in the given numbers are:

(a) 214 = 3

(b) 81.60 = 4

(c) 7.03 = 3

(d) 0.03 = 1

(e) 0.0086 = 2

(f) 3236 = 4

(g) 8700 = 2
