What is the greatest common factor of 52 and 36?
The factors of 52 are [1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52] and the factors of 36 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36]. They share 3 factors [1, 2, 4] making 4 the greatest factor 52 and 36 have in common.
Which of the following is a characteristic of batteries connected in series?
total voltage equals the sum of the individual battery voltages
You can multiply the voltage or the current supplied by individual batteries by connecting them together either in series or in parallel. The characteristics of batteries connected in series are that total voltage equals the sum of the individual battery voltages, total current equals the average of the individual battery currents, the positive terminal of one battery is connected to the negative terminal of the next, and one connection is made between each adjacent battery.
Simplify 7a x 6b.
To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.
7a x 6b = (7 x 6) (a x b) = 42ab
Which of these numbers is a factor of 72?
The factors of a number are all positive integers that divide evenly into the number. The factors of 72 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72.
Elements in the Periodic Table of the Elements are ordered by which of the following?
atomic number
The Periodic Table of the Elements categorizes elements primarily by the number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number) and secondarily by the characteristics they exhibit.
From what energy do photovoltaic cells produce electrical energy?
sun
A photovoltaic cell (also known as a solar cell) converts energy from the sun into electrical energy.
Which of the following is igneous rock?
granite
The Earth's rocks fall into three categories based on how they're formed. Igneous rock (granite, basalt, obsidian) is formed from the hardening of molten rock (lava), sedimentary rock (shale, sandstone, coal) is formed by the gradual despositing and cementing of rock and other debris, and metamorphic rock (marble, slate, quartzite) which is formed when existing rock is altered though pressure, temperature, or chemical processes.
The distributor is responsible for:
timing the spark and distributing it to the correct cylinder
The distributor is driven by the engine's camshaft and is responsible for timing the spark and distributing it to the correct cylinder. The distributor cap contains a rotor that connects the ignition coil (and its high voltage) to the proper cylinder at the proper point in the stroke cycle.
