Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy clouds composed of ice crystals. At what elevation to cirrus clouds form?
high-altitude
Cirrus clouds are thin, wispy high-altitude clouds composed of ice crystals that originate from the freezing of supercooled water droplets. Cirrus clouds generally occur in fair weather and point in the direction of air movement at their elevation.
What is 9a - 7a?
To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.
9a - 7a = 2a
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.
parallel
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.
A triathlon course includes a 500m swim, a 30.8km bike ride, and a 8.100000000000001km run. What is the total length of the race course?
To add these distances, they must share the same unit so first you need to first convert the swim distance from meters (m) to kilometers (km) before adding it to the bike and run distances which are already in km. To convert 500 meters to kilometers, divide the distance by 1000 to get 0.5km then add the remaining distances:
total distance = swim + bike + run
total distance = 0.5km + 30.8km + 8.100000000000001km
total distance = 39.4km
Resistance is measured in:
ohms
Resistance is opposition to the flow of current and is measured in ohms (Ω). One ohm is defined as the amount of resistance that will allow one ampere of current to flow if one volt of voltage is applied. As resistance increases, current decreases as resistance and current are inversely proportional.
In the metric system, what prefix represents 103?
kilo
Kilo is the metric system prefix for 103.
The fluid reservoir stores the __________ that the master cylinder uses to maintain hydraulic pressure.
brake fluid
The fluid reservoir stores the brake fluid that the master cylinder uses to maintain hydraulic pressure.
Which of the following is the formula for calculating electrical power?
P = IV
Electrical power is measured in watts (W) and is calculated by multiplying the voltage (V) applied to a circuit by the resulting current (I) that flows in the circuit: P = IV. In addition to measuring production capacity, power also measures the rate of energy consumption and many loads are rated for their consumption capacity. For example, a 60W lightbulb utilizes 60W of energy to produce the equivalent of 60W of heat and light energy.
