Ben franklin showed that 1 teaspoon of oil would cover about 0.50 acre of still water. if you know that 1.0 x 104m2 = 2.47 acres, and that there are 5.0 cm3 in a teaspoon, what is the thickness (in cm) of a later of oil?

To solve for the thickness of the latter of oil, we can simply divide the volume by the total surface area:

Thickness = Volume / Surface Area

We are both given the volume and the surface area, all we have to do now is to convert the units in like terms so that we can cancel those out.

Surface Area = 0.50 acres (1.0 x 10^4 m^2 / 2.47 acres)

Surface Area = 2,024.29 m^2

Further converting this into cm:

Surface Area = 2,024.29 m^2 (100 cm / m)^2

Surface Area = 20,242,914.98 cm^2

Therefore the thickness is:

Thickness = 5.0 cm^3 / 20,242,914.98 cm^2

Thickness = 2.47 x 10^-7 cm

or

Thickness = 2.47 x 10^-9 m = 2.47 nm = 24.7 A

work: w = fd (given)

work done by chet   =50*1 = 50 j

work done by mika =40*2 = 80 j

work done by sara =30*1.5 = 45 j

work done by bill =60*0.5 = 30 j

students in order from the greatest amount of work done to the least is mika> chet> sara> bill

hence option (b) is correct.

answer: i'm not sure which is which for i get confused on it all the time but i can tell you that the answer lies with the convex and concave devices. i hope this you. have a good day and best of luck to you!
