A right triangle has a base of 6 ft a height off 5ft,what is the length of the opposite side

You have to use the pythagorean theorem to solve this. a^2 + b^2 = c^2 a = 6ft b = 5 ft c = ? 6^2 + 5^2 = c^2 36 + 25 = c^2 61 = c^2 √61 = √c^2 7.810 = c 7.8 feet (rounded to the tenths place)-Fr

What should my multimeter read when measuring resistance of a capacitor

Most capacitors that Ive measured resistance of made my multimeter show a constantly increasing number. Is that how its supposed to be? I also tried it on a couple other capacitors that returned 0 for

Why is it important to maintain mechanical systems

3 points that are detailed please. Thank you very much indeed!-Firstly, the obvious - wear and tear. Say if you have three cogs which turn by one cog (the main cog). The main cog will eventually wear

How do you calculate relative permeability

An iron ring of 420 mm mean diameter and 1.6 x 10^-3 m^2 cross-sectional area, has 1000 turns of wire wound uniformly around it. If a current of 1.4 A in the wire produces a magnetic flux of 4 x 10^-3

What is the formula for center distance between two spur gears

The effective radius of each is half of the pitch diameter.The distance is the sum of the two radii.

What is the integral of....

integral of |x| upper bound x=1, lower bound x= -1-The absolute value function is just |x| = x if x ≥ 0 |x| = -x if x So, integrate -x of the interval -1 to 0, and integrate x over the interval 0

How to reduce 9v battery to 7v

i have a small water pump that runs on 7v , i want it to run from a 9v battery-Frankly, unless it gets warm, let it run on 9 volts - This will at least use all of the power for pumping water.A 30% ove
