This tool is a(n) __________.
combination wrench
Wrenches are used to provide grip and mechanical advantage by applying torque to turn objects (or to keep them from turning). The longer the wrench, the more torque that can be applied. Wrench ends are available in two primary types, open-end and box-end. A box-end wrench encloses the bolt head and is useful when more torque is needed or to maintain contact in difficult to reach locations. An open-end wrench is designed for speedily loosening easier to reach fasteners. Wrenches that feature one open and one box end are called combination wrenches and adjustable wrenches feature an open end with an adjustable width.
On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:
chord
A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).
What is \( \frac{4}{6} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{8} \)?
To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:
\( \frac{4}{6} \) ÷ \( \frac{4}{8} \) = \( \frac{4}{6} \) x \( \frac{8}{4} \)
To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:
\( \frac{4}{6} \) x \( \frac{8}{4} \) = \( \frac{4 x 8}{6 x 4} \) = \( \frac{32}{24} \) = 1\(\frac{1}{3}\)
What is -z2 + 5z2?
To add or subtract terms with exponents, both the base and the exponent must be the same. In this case they are so add the coefficients and retain the base and exponent:
-1z2 + 5z2
(-1 + 5)z2
4z2
A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
electron
An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
What part of the brain is responsible for the major senses (thinking, hearing, seeing)?
cerebrum
The cerebrum is the major part of the brain and is responsible for the main senses (thinking, hearing, seeing).
Control arms connect a vehicle's suspension to the frame. The connection to the frame uses:
bushings
Control arms (upper and lower) connect a vehicle's suspension to the frame. The connection to the wheels is through ball joints which allow the control arms to turn and move up and down simultaneously. The frame connection uses bushings.
