question:A circle graph shows how the budget of a certain company was spent: 20 percent for transportation, 9 percent for research and development, 5 percent for utilities, some percent for equipment, 2 percent for supplies, and the remainder for salaries. The area of each sector of the graph is proportional to the percent of the budget it represents. Salaries are represented by 216 degrees of the circle. What percent of the budget was spent on equipment?
answer:To find the percent of the budget spent on equipment, we first need to determine the percent spent on salaries. Since the circle graph represents 100% of the budget and the circle itself has 360 degrees, each degree represents a fraction of the total budget. If salaries are represented by 216 degrees of the circle, we can set up a proportion to find the percentage of the budget spent on salaries: ( frac{216 text{ degrees}}{360 text{ degrees}} = frac{x}{100%} ) Solving for x gives us the percentage for salaries: ( x = frac{216}{360} times 100% ) ( x = 0.6 times 100% ) ( x = 60% ) Now that we know 60% of the budget was spent on salaries, we can add up all the known percentages and subtract from 100% to find the percent spent on equipment: ( 100% - (20% + 9% + 5% + 2% + 60%) = 100% - 96% = 4% ) Therefore, boxed{4%} of the budget was spent on equipment.
question:What is the molecular weight of a compound having 2 Nitrogen and 3 Oxyge
answer:To calculate the molecular weight of a compound with 2 nitrogen atoms and 3 oxygen atoms, we need to know the atomic weights of nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O). The atomic weight of nitrogen is approximately 14.01 g/mol, and the atomic weight of oxygen is approximately 16.00 g/mol. The molecular weight of the compound is calculated by adding together the atomic weights of all the atoms in the molecule: Molecular weight = (Number of N atoms × Atomic weight of N) + (Number of O atoms × Atomic weight of O) Molecular weight = (2 × 14.01 g/mol) + (3 × 16.00 g/mol) Molecular weight = (2 × 14.01) + (3 × 16.00) Molecular weight = 28.02 + 48.00 Molecular weight = 76.02 g/mol Therefore, the molecular weight of the compound with 2 nitrogen atoms and 3 oxygen atoms is boxed{76.02} g/mol.
question:A train of certain length crosses an electric pole in 2.7497800175985923 seconds, if its speed is 144 km/hr. What is the length of the train?
answer:To find the length of the train, we can use the formula: Length of the train = Speed × Time taken to cross the pole First, we need to convert the speed from km/hr to m/s because the time is given in seconds. We know that 1 km/hr is equal to 5/18 m/s. Speed in m/s = Speed in km/hr × (5/18) Speed in m/s = 144 × (5/18) Speed in m/s = 8 × 5 Speed in m/s = 40 m/s Now, we can calculate the length of the train: Length of the train = Speed × Time Length of the train = 40 m/s × 2.7497800175985923 s Length of the train = 110.9912007039437 meters Therefore, the length of the train is approximately boxed{110.99} meters.
question:On the radius ( AO ) of a circle with center ( O ), a point ( M ) is selected. On one side of ( AO ) on the circle, points ( B ) and ( C ) are chosen such that ( angle AMB = angle OMC = alpha ). Find the length of ( BC ) if the radius of the circle is 10 and ( sin alpha = frac{sqrt{21}}{5} ).
answer:We are given a circle with center ( O ) and radius ( 10 ). We select a point ( M ) on the radius ( AO ) such that ( OM = x ). On one side of ( AO ) on the circle, we choose points ( B ) and ( C ) such that ( angle AMB = angle OMC = alpha ). We need to find the length of ( BC ), given that ( sin alpha = frac{sqrt{21}}{5} ). 1. **Consider the symmetric point ( B_1 ):** Consider the point ( B_1 ) symmetric to ( B ) with respect to the line ( OA ). Since ( B ) and ( B_1 ) lie on the circle and the symmetric property holds, we have ( angle AMB = angle AMB_1 = alpha ). 2. **Observation of Collinearity:** Notice that the points ( B_1, M, C ) lie on a straight line. Also, the triangle ( triangle B B_1 M ) is isosceles with ( angle BMB_1 = 2alpha ). 3. **Calculation of the angle ( angle B B_1 M ):** The angle ( angle B B_1 M ) is an inscribed angle and equals: [ angle B B_1 M = 180^circ - 2alpha ] Since ( Delta B B_1 M ) is isosceles: [ angle B B_1 M = 90^circ - alpha ] 4. **Central angle and ( Delta BOC ):** The central angle ( angle BOC ) is formed by OB and OC. Using the inscribed angle theorem: [ angle BOC = 2 angle BMC = 2 alpha ] Consequently: [ angle BOC = 180^circ - 2alpha ] The triangle ( triangle BOC ) is also isosceles since ( OB = OC = 10 ). 5. **Determining ( cos alpha ):** Given ( sin alpha = frac{sqrt{21}}{5} ), we find ( cos alpha ): [ cos alpha = sqrt{1 - sin^2 alpha} = sqrt{1 - left( frac{sqrt{21}}{5} right)^2} = sqrt{1 - frac{21}{25}} = sqrt{frac{4}{25}} = frac{2}{5} ] 6. **Finding ( BC ):** The base ( BC ) of the isosceles triangle ( triangle BOC ) can be calculated using the cosine rule or directly from the geometric properties of the isosceles triangle: [ BC = 2 times OB times cos alpha = 2 times 10 times frac{2}{5} = 8 ] # Conclusion: [ boxed{8} ]
