Concurrent forces:
pass through a common point
Collinear forces act along the same line of action, concurrent forces pass through a common point and coplanar forces act in a common plane.
Which of the following can conduct electricity under some conditions but not others?
semiconductor
Semiconductors have valence shells that are exacly half full and can conduct electricity under some conditions but not others. This property makes them useful for the control of electrical current.
Simplify \( \frac{24}{56} \).
To simplify this fraction, first find the greatest common factor between them. The factors of 24 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24] and the factors of 56 are [1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56]. They share 4 factors [1, 2, 4, 8] making 8 their greatest common factor (GCF).
Next, divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF:
\( \frac{24}{56} \) = \( \frac{\frac{24}{8}}{\frac{56}{8}} \) = \( \frac{3}{7} \)
If angle a = 68° and angle b = 39° what is the length of angle c?
The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 68° - 39° = 73°
The __________ converts pressure on the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure in the brake lines.
master cylinder
The master (brake) cylinder converts pressure on the brake pedal to hydraulic pressure in the brake lines.
Which of these does not contain oxygenated blood?
right atrium
To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
According to Boyle's Law, pressure and volume are inversely proportional:
\( \frac{P_1}{P_2} \) = \( \frac{V_2}{V_1} \)
In this problem, V2 = 10 ft.3, V1 = 30 ft.3 and P1 = 6.0 psi. Solving for P2:
P2 = \( \frac{P_1}{\frac{V_2}{V_1}} \) = \( \frac{6.0 psi}{\frac{10 ft.^3}{30 ft.^3}} \) = 18 psi
