Final exam review help?!?!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have 3 study sheets.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for # 1 i got 34km/h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no, you have to multiply by 3.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1383926098747:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4.9 m change it to km it is 0.0049km/s * 60 *60 = 33.8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4.9 m change it to km it is 0.0049km this is correct. but then when you change seconds into hours you divide by 3600 since you divide it in the denominator it is like multiplying by 3600 so eventually 0.0049 * 3600 = 17.64 km/h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look at my draw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-> 0.0049km/s * 60 *60 = 33.8 it is 17.64 and not 33.8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.0049 * 60 * 60 = 17.64

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe you did mistake when you enter the numbers into the calculator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the options are 94,000 km/h 34 km/h 2.6 km/h 34,000,000 km/h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well what can i say : http://www.unitconversion.org/velocity/meters-per-second-to-kilometers-per-hour-conversion.html you may check yourself here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.0049 * 60 * 60 = 17.64 do it in the calculator and see

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m is for meters right ? :O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. Idk maybe the options are wrong. i keep getting 17.64 too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess they are wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A physical quantity X depends on mass, distance, and time. Use dimensional analysis to decide which of these is a possible expression for X where a is acceleration, v is velocity, and F is force. It's either X=Ft or X=1/2at^2 right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well in x=1/2at^2 there is no mass

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would X=Ft work?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have options ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes X=Ft X=at X=vt and X=1/2at^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes Ft is the one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for 3 I want to say B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(just to make sure that you understand Ft units are [kg m / s] so it has mass distance and time)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now for 3. think what happens to y when x is small and when x is big..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = k/x for low values of x like when x goes to zero y will be very large for high values of x like when x goes to infinity y will be very low agree ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes so thus my answer is A? AS X gets larger Y gets smaller.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes ! A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A balloon is expanded to the same volume as that of a human head. Do an order-of-magnitude estimate of the volume of this balloon in cm3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1,000 cm3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it iscorrect

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which equation represents inverse proportionality? y=mx?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=mx is linear proportionality direct ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=mx y=mx^2 +b for nonzero b y=m/x y=mx^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we had one like this before .. we want inverse so when one is high the other is low and when one is low the other is high ...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how would that be represented by an equation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=m/x as i said we had something like this before when we chose graph A
