-40°F is how many °C?
-40 |
|
\(-{40 \over 9}\) |
|
\({40 \over 9}\) |
|
-8 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-40 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (-72) = {{-72 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {-360 \over 9}\)
\(C° = -40\)
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. What is the formula for velocity?
\(\vec{v} = { t \over \vec{d} } \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = \vec{d}t \) |
|
\(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \) |
|
none of these |
Velocity is the rate at which an object changes position. Rate is measured in time and position is measured in displacement so the formula for velocity becomes \(\vec{v} = { \vec{d} \over t } \)
The asteroids in the Kuiper belt are composed of which of the following?
minerals |
|
rock |
|
gaseous methane, ammonia, and water |
|
frozen methane, ammonia, and water |
The Kuiper Belt is similar to the asteroid belt but much larger. Extending beyond the orbit of Neptune, it contains objects composed mostly of frozen methane, ammonia, and water. Most notably, the Kuiper Belt is home to Pluto, a dwarf planet that, until a 2006 reclassification, was considered the ninth planet of the solar system.
Heredity is the passing on of physical or mental characteristics genetically from one __________ to another.
generation |
|
species |
|
family |
|
cell |
Heredity is the passing on of physical or mental characteristics genetically from one generation to another. Heredity is made possible via large strings of chromosomes which carry information encoded in genes.
Respiration is the process by which __________ absorb oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide.
diaphragms |
|
capillaries |
|
bronchioles |
|
blood cells |
The respiratory system manages respiration which is the process by which blood cells absorb oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide.
