If Tom uses 20 pounds of pressure to break a 1 .5-foot long board, how many pounds of pressure would he need to use to break a 6 foot long board?arrow_forwardA boat travels at a constant speed on a river whose current also has a constant speed. The boat can travel 150 miles with the current in 6 hours. The same boat requires 7 hours to travel 105 miles against the current. How fast (in miles per hour) is the boat in still water? Simplify your answer as much as possible.arrow_forwardUse the problem situation below to answer Part A, Part B, and Part C. When using a lever (like the one shown below), the weight of an item varies inversely with the item's distance from the center of the lever. This is a lever. Part A: Write a formula to describe the situation, using the variables w for the weight of the item and d for the distance of the item from the center of the lever. Part B: A box that weighs 40 lb. is placed 17 in. from the center. Find the value of k, and write the explicit formula using the same variables from Part A. Part C: If you want to balance the weight of the 40 lb. box, which is 17 in. from the center of the lever, how far from the center of the lever should you place a 50 lb.box? Show your work to support your answer.arrow_forward
- Boyle's law states that if the temperature of a gas stays constantthen the pressure varles inversely to the volume of the gas. Braydon a scuba diverhas a tank that holds 6 liters of air under a pressure of 220 pounds per square inch (psi). Write the equation that relates pressure to volume, If the pressure Increases to 330 psi, how much air held in Braydon's tank?arrow_forwardSound travels about 750 miles per hour.
