The first step in the water cycle is:
evaporation
The water (hydrologic) cycle describes the movement of water from Earth through the atmosphere and back to Earth. The cycle starts when water evaporates into a gas from bodies of water like rivers, lakes and oceans or transpirates from the leaves of plants.
This circuit component symbol represents a(n):
DC source
Direct current flows in only one direction in a circuit, from the negative terminal of the voltage source to the positive. A common source of direct current (DC) is a battery.
What is a framing square used for?
marking lines at a right angle
Rulers are used to both measure distance and to draw straight lines. Tape measures are flexible rulers made from cloth or metal and are useful for measuring longer distances and in tighter spaces. Both rulers and tape measures provide similar accuracy, commonly down to \({1 \over 16}\) or \({1 \over 32}\) inch. A steel framing square is made up of a shorter ruler (tongue) and a longer ruler (blade) that meet at a 90° (right) angle. A framing square is often used by carpenters when framing stairs and roofs.
Find the average of the following numbers: 17, 13, 17, 13.
To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:
\( \frac{17 + 13 + 17 + 13}{4} \) = \( \frac{60}{4} \) = 15
If the ratio of home fans to visiting fans in a crowd is 3:1 and all 38,000 seats in a stadium are filled, how many home fans are in attendance?
A ratio of 3:1 means that there are 3 home fans for every one visiting fan. So, of every 4 fans, 3 are home fans and \( \frac{3}{4} \) of every fan in the stadium is a home fan:
38,000 fans x \( \frac{3}{4} \) = \( \frac{114000}{4} \) = 28,500 fans.
