Distnce from kumasi to barekese?

10 feet is how many square feet?

This question cannot be answered sensibly. A square foot is a measure of area, with dimensions [L2]. A foot is a measure of distnce, with dimensions [L]. Basic dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.

Every how many miles do you change brakes on Lexus GX470 and at what miles is a fan belt usually replace?

Drivers habits and type of miles (city, highway, long distnce) determine the brake wear, not the number of miles driven. Most manufacturers recommend that belts be replaced ever 100,000 miles.


What is relative distnce?

In our everyday lives, there is really no big difference between 'distance' and 'relative distance.' However, you must realize that EVERY measurement is relative. Consider this: You're on a moving train. A track parallel to you on the left is moving with your train at the same speed. Say it's really foggy and you can't make out any ground reference points other than the other train. You see no movement. That's because the relative speed between your train and the other train is close to zero. Main idea: All measurements have reference points. Relative distance isn't much different. It's just the distance of one object compared to the reference point, which is really just simply 'distance'.


Why do they say tht the law of conservation of energy is not applicable to the universe as a whole.this red shift thing..can't it be tht light is losing energy in doing work to travel all tht distnce?

No one, in the field of physics, says the conservation law does not apply to the universe as a whole. In fact the opposite is true, that entropy always increases. The speed of light in a vacuum is a universal constant and can neither increase or decrease.


If the force is increased by the larger piston how does the amount of work stay the same?

Work=Distance/Time so even thought the force is greater it does not factor into the formula unless the size of the piston affects the time or the distnce the work is being done in. I imagine a larger force from the piston merely makes it easier for the engine to work at the same workload and or achieve a greater work formula with the force being factored into its own formula.


A system uses the stop-and-wait arq protocolif each packet carries 1000 bits of data determine the time taken to send 1 million bits of data if the distnce between te sender and receiver is 5000 km?

The first answer is this: "We require to send 1000 frames. We ignore the overhead due to the header and trailer. Data frame Transmission time = 1000 bits / 1,000,000 bits ( 1 Mbps = 1,000,000 bps) = 1 ms The distance between the sender and receiver is 5000 km. Data frame trip time = 5000 km / 200,000 km = 25 ms ACK transmission time = 0 ACK trip time = 5000 km / 200,000 km = 25 ms Delay for 1 frame = 1 + data frame trip time + ACK trip time = 1 + 25 + 25 = 51 ms. Total delay = 1000 51ms = 1000bits 51 10-3 = 51s" The second answer is this: "The propagation delay is given by tp = d/c Where d = distance between transmitter and receiver, c = speed of light, d = 5000 and c =3000000 So, tp = 5000/300,000 = 0.02 Transmission delay tt = L/λ Where L = number of bits in the frame and λ = transmission rate in bits per sec. Here L = 1000 and λ = 200000000 So, tt = 1000/200000000 = 0.000005 Total time taken T = tt + 2tp T = 0.000005+0.02 T = 0.020005"


How do you survive an atomic bomb?

Atomic (also known as fission) bombs kill by three methods: heat, blast, and radiation. All of these effects are reduced as the distance from the detonation point increases; doubling the distnce from the detonation point reduces the effects by 1/4. Heat is obvious - the temperature produced by a typical atom bomb can approach that of the sun. You would need to shield your body from intense heat (up to several thousand degrees C) to survive. Blast can also be called a pressure or force wave. A blast wave can mimic a very strong wind - something that feels like 1000 mile per hour wind. Naturally, such a wave will knock down or throw things around. A bomb the size of Hiroshima produced a blast wave strong enough to completely flatten a normal wood-frame house up to 3 miles away. Radiation in the form of gamma and x-rays, and alpha particals, kills via disrupting normal cellular function. Heavy shielding with a dense material (lead, thick concrete, very thick soil) is the only way to protect yourself. In reality, the only way to survive a atomic bomb blast is to be far away from it, or be inside an extremely strong structure a modest distance from the point of detonation.
