How many 8-passenger vans will it take to drive all 97 members of the football team to an away game?
Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:
vans = \( \frac{97}{8} \) = 12\(\frac{1}{8}\)
So, it will take 12 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 13 vans.
Which of these saws is used with a miter box?
back saw
A miter box utlizes a back saw (a fine toothed saw with a rigid strip of steel opposite its blade edge) to make cuts in wood at a specified angle.
Which of the following converts electrical energy into another form of energy in an electrical circuit?
load
A load is a source of resistance that converts electrical energy into another form of energy. The components of a microwave, for example, are loads that work together to convert household electricity into radation that can be used to quickly cook food.
Which of these is the formula for kinetic energy?
\(KE = {1 \over 2}mv^2\)
Kinetic energy is the energy of movement and is a function of the mass of an object and its speed: \(KE = {1 \over 2}mv^2\) where m is mass in kilograms, v is speed in meters per second, and KE is in joules. The most impactful quantity to kinetic energy is velocity as an increase in mass increases KE linearly while an increase in speed increases KE exponentially.
The four planets closest to the Sun are called terrestrial. What does terrestrial mean?
the planets are Earth-like
The four planets closest to the Sun (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are called terrestrial (Earth-like) planets because, like the Earth, they're solid with inner metal cores covered by rocky surfaces.
All surface water is part of the:
hydrosphere
The biosphere is the global ecological system integrating all living beings and their relationships. This includes their interactions with the lithosphere (the rigid outer part of the earth, consisting of the crust and upper mantle), hydrosphere (all surface water), and atmosphere (the envelope of gases surrounding the planet).
Which of the following is the correct order for the engine stroke cycle?
intake, compression, power, exhaust
The stroke cycle order is intake stroke, compression stroke, power stroke, exhaust stroke.
Which of blood component allows blood to clot?
platelets
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
