__________ are made with wide gap coils of rigid steel cable and both hold the vehicle chassis up off the ground and absorb energy from wheel movement making for a smoother ride.

Boyle's law defines the relationship between pressure and volume as:
\(\frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{V_2}{V_1}\)
Boyle's law states that "for a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional". Expressed as a formula, that's \(\frac{P_1}{P_2} = \frac{V_2}{V_1}\)
Convert 5C° to F°.
41
To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(5) + 32\)
\(F° = {45 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = 9 + 32 = 41\)
If side x = 12cm, side y = 9cm, and side z = 9cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:
p = x + y + z
p = 12cm + 9cm + 9cm = 30cm
What kind of diode allows current to flow in the opposite direction once a certain voltage threshold is reached?
zener diode
A diode allows current to pass easily in one direction and blocks current in the other direction. A zener diode is a diode which allows current to flow in one direction as normal and will also allow current flow in the reverse direction when the voltage is above a certain value. This value is called the breakdown voltage.
Gear ratio indicates which of the following about two connected gears?
mechanical advantage
The mechanical advantage (amount of change in speed or torque) of connected gears is proportional to the number of teeth each gear has. Called gear ratio, it's the ratio of the number of teeth on the larger gear to the number of teeth on the smaller gear. For example, a gear with 12 teeth connected to a gear with 9 teeth would have a gear ratio of 4:3.
Minerals, vitamins, and fiber are:
micronutrients
Minterals, vitamins, and fiber are micronutrients while proteins, carbohydrates, and fats are macronutrients.
Piston rings are responsible for which of the following?
regulating oil distribution inside the cylinder
Cylinders act as a guide for the pistons that translate the heat energy of combustion into the mechanical energy necessary to move a vehicle. Piston rings seal the piston to the cylinder to contain combustion gases and also regulate the oil distribution between the piston and cylinder wall. A cylinder head closes in the top of the cylinder forming the combustion chamber which is sealed by a head gasket (head). The head provides space for air and fuel intake valves, exhaust valves, and mounts for spark plugs and fuel injectors.
