Answer:

The middle slab is 2 cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem presents the information: Mr. Alvarez makes a walkway out of 3 cement slabs.

However, he uses 14 Cubic feet of cement to make the walkway. Each square slab has a volume of 4 cubic feet.

Mr. Alvarez makes the way with 3 cement slabs (NC), each cement slab is 4 cubic feet (UC). It means, the cubic feet for the 3 cement slabs (CS) are:

CS = NC* UC = 3*4 = 12 cubic feet.

It means Mr. Alvarez uses 12 cubic feet with 3 cement slabs.

Mr. Alvarez used in total of 14 cubic feet of cement (TC). At this moment he used 12 cubic feet of cement (CS). It means, there will be a part of the cement slab used (PC).

PC = TC - CS = 14 - 12 = 2 Cubic feet.

Finally, the middle slab is 2 cubic feet of cement.

katovenus [111]

Answer:

a) density of the object is 3995.01, b) the weight scale reads 22N c) the sum individually will be the same with when added together.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the object in air is 8N,

and weight = Mass * acceleration due to gravity = m * 9.81

8/9.81 = 0.815,

upthrust( force acting on the body from the liquid impeding the immersion) on the body when fully submerged = weight in air - weight in water = 8N - 6N =2N

Upthrust = weight of water displaced = 2N = mass * acceleration

2/9.81 = 0.204kg

density of water(1000kg/m^3) = mass of water / volume of water

volume of water displaced = 0.204/1000 = 0.000204m^3 (204cm^3)

volume of water displaced = volume of the solid

density of solid = mass/ volume = 0.815/0.000204 = 3995.01kg/m^3

b) when fully submerge in water the the scale experience according to newton third law of motion ( equal and opposite reaction of forces) additional 2N push so that total weight with the fully submerge solid = 20N + upthrust = 20N + 2N =22N

c) the of two scale reading is before (8N + 20N = 28N) and after (6N + 22N = 28) since there is no loss of matter; the demonstration was in equilibrium.

The average blood alcohol concentration (bac) of eight male subjects was measured after consumption of 15 ml of ethanol (corresp
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

After 5 minutes, the BAC was increasing at the rate of 0.0137 mg/mL a minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average blood alcohol concentration (bac)  is modeled by the following function.

c(t) = 0.0225te^{-0.0467t}

In which t is measured in minuted.

How rapidly was the BAC increasing after 5 minutes?

This is c'(t) when t = 5.

Using the derivative of the product.

Derivative of the product:

c(t) = f(t)*g(t)

c'(t) = f'(t)*g(t) + f(t)*g'(t)

In which problem:

f(t) = 0.0225t

g(t) = e^{-0.0467t}

So

c'(t) = 0.0225e^{-0.0467t} - 0.0225*0.0467*te^{-0.0467t}

c'(5) = 0.0225e^{-0.0467*5} - 0.0225*0.0467*5e^{-0.0467*5} = 0.0137

After 5 minutes, the BAC was increasing at the rate of 0.0137 mg/mL a minute.
