- The length, L, of the standard 82° included angle drill can be calculated using the formula L=0.575 , where Ø represents the diameter of the drill. Determine the length of a drill point with a diameter of 12.5 mm. Round your answer to 1 decimal place.arrow_forwardThe steel beam shown weighs 7800 kilograms/cubic meter. Determine the weight of the beam to the nearest kilogram.arrow_forwardThe following formula is used to calculate the wind chill factor W in degree Celsius. 5(°F - 32) (10.45 + 10 V - V) (33 – T) W = 33 - 9 22.04 9°C °F = T is the air temperature in degree Celsius and V is the wind speed in meters per second. Use the formulas to the right as needed. (a) Determine the wind chill for an air temperature of 4°C and a wind speed of 24 meters per second. (b) Determine the wind chill for an air temperature of 27°F and a wind speed of 26 mph. Convert your final answer to degrees Fahrenheit. + 32 1 mile = 1609.344 meters 1 hour = 3600 seconds (a) The wind chill is °C. (Round the final answer to the nearest tenth as needed. Round all intermediate values to the nearest tenth as needed.) (b) The wind chill is °F. (Round the final answer to the nearest tenth as needed. Round all intermediate values to the nearest tenth as needed.)arrow_forward

The formula below can be used to determine the height of the rocket above the ground at any time during the rocket's flight. Open Response h = 16t(7 – t) In the formula, h and t are defined as follows: t = the time, in seconds, that has elapsed since the rocket was launched h = the height, in feet, of the rocket above the ground at time t Use the formula to answer the following questions. a. What was the height, in feet, of the rocket 1 second after it was launched? Show your work. b. What was the height, in feet, of the rocket 6 seconds after it was launched? Show your work. c. The value of h was o when the rocket hit the ground. How many seconds after the rocket was launched did it hit the ground? Show your work. d. How many seconds after the rocket was launched was the height of the rocket 16o feet? Show your work.arrow_forwardThe relationship between a person's body weight v (kg), body mass index I and height h (m) is given by the formula v = I ∙ h2. a. What does a person who has a body mass index of 23.0 and is 1.65 m tall weigh? b. What is the body mass index of a person who weighs 95 kg and is 1.90 m tall? c. How tall is a person who weighs 65 kg and has a body mass index of 25.0? d. Find a formula expressed by I. e. Find a formula expressed by h. f.

- Determine the units of the variable x in each of the following equations, and specify which rule you used to determine this. Do not solve for the numeric value of x. Show your work beneath the question, or on a separate sheet of paper. Example: 315 feet = (32)x² Rule #1: Both sides of the equal sign must have the same units. Rule #2: Values that are added or subtracted must have the same units. Rule #13: Argument of a trig function must be an angle. Rule #14: Argument of an inverse trig function must have no units. Rule #5: Exponents must have no units. x has units of seconds because of Rule # 1arrow_forwardUse the problem situation below to answer Part A, Part B, and Part C. When using a lever (like the one shown below), the weight of an item varies inversely with the item's distance from the center of the lever. This is a lever. Part A: Write a formula to describe the situation, using the variables w for the weight of the item and d for the distance of the item from the center of the lever. Part B: A box that weighs 40 lb. is placed 17 in. from the center. Find the value of k, and write the explicit formula using the same variables from Part A. Part C: If you want to balance the weight of the 40 lb. box, which is 17 in. from the center of the lever, how far from the center of the lever should you place a 50 lb.box? Show your work to support your answer.arrow_forward4.) A frain was fraveling at a constant speed. The table below shows the distance, in miles, the train traveled for the first 4 hours.
