An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of __________ animals, including humans.
vertebrate
An endoskeleton (internal skeleton) is a charateristic of vertebrate animals, including humans.
Normal force is generally equal to the __________ of an object.
weight
Normal force arises on a flat horizontal surface in response to an object's weight pressing it down. Consequently, normal force is generally equal to the object's weight.
On Earth, acceleration due to gravity (g) is approximately __________.
9.8 m/s2
Newton's Law of Univeral Gravitation defines the general formula for the attraction of gravity between two objects: \(\vec{F_{g}} = { Gm_{1}m_{2} \over r^2}\) . In the specific case of an object falling toward Earth, the acceleration due to gravity (g) is approximately 9.8 m/s2.
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
The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 9 and radius (r) = 1. What is the volume?
The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:
v = πr2h
v = π(12 x 9)
v = 9π
Electricity cannot flow...
through an open circuit
An electrical circuit is a path through which electricity flows. This path contains one or more components that create a load (something that is using electricity) and that load acts as resistance to the passage of electricity through the circuit. Electricity can only flow through a circuit when the path is closed and cannot flow through an open circuit.
For inline cylinder arrangements in an engine, how are the cylinders numbered?
sequentially from the front of the engine to the back
Inline cylinder arrangements number cylinders sequentially (1, 2, 3, ...) front to rear.
