How many feet of half inch rope does it take to wrap a 8 foot 15 inch round pole with no gaps between the rope?

∙ 14y ago
- 8 x 12 x 2 = 192 wraps of a half inch rope around an eight foot pole.
- Each wrap requires 15 inches of rope.
- 192 x 15 in = 2,880 inches / 12 inches per foot = 240 feet (give or take a little)

Why are there gaps between adjoining rails?
The gaps are there to allow for expansion and contraction. In cold weather the rails will contract leaving gaps between the rails. In warm weather the rails will expand and the gaps will disappear. The ride in summer or winter probably would not change, because when the gaps disappear, there could be a difference in elevation, but not enough to cause a problem.
Can a octagon tile?
No. You will have smaller square or triangular gaps between them.
Describe some of the characteristics of quadrilaterals?
4 sides No rounded areas No gaps between lines
Why do some shapes tessellate and some don't?
Tessellation is repeating a pattern over and over and filling an area with no overlaps and no gaps. Some shapes can't do this, because they don't fit with themselves without leaving big gaps between the parts.
How do you find area without formulas?
You measure how many units will fit inside of the area. For example, if you own a plot of land and want to know the area in square feet, construct a lot of squares that are one foot square. Then put as many of those square as will fit into the plot without any overlapping or any gaps. Count the number of squares that fit into the plot.
Why do foot paths rail-tracks and bridges have gaps between them?
please tell me the answer!
How many one foot wide bricks are needed for a circumference that has a diameter of ten and a half feet?
The circumference of a circle is pi x diameter, where pi equals approximately 3.14. Therefore, the inner circumference of a brick circle with an inside diameter of 10.5 feet is 32.99 feet. As a result, 33 one foot bricks would create a circle with a diameter slightly larger than 10.5 feet, without any gaps between the bricks.
What are synaptic gaps?
Synaptic gaps are the spaces between neurons.
This why do you have five toes but four gaps between them?
not all people because they might have lost some toes but if you have all your toes on one foot the answer would be yes.
Does granite have Gaps between the Grains?
No. Granite does not have gaps between the grains. The crystals in an intrusive igneous rock are interlocking.
Can maps be wrong?
Yes, the earth is round, and you cant make a sphere flat. It leaves gaps, so map makers have to improvise and fill in the gaps.
How many 3x6 tiles will it take to cover 11 lineal feet?
The answer depends on the orientation of the tiles but will be between 22 and 44 tiles (ignoring grouting gaps).
What is the function of the gaps at the railway?
It depends which gaps you mean! Older track was laid in discrete sections with gaps left between them to allow for expansion on hot days. There are gaps between rails at the points which are used to connect different tracks together in turn. Is this what you mean?
When temperature rises what will happen to the gaps between the concrete sections?
when the tempreture rises the gaps between the concrete pavement will expand because of the heat.
When the temperature rises what will happen to the gaps between the concrete sections?
when the tempreture rises the gaps between the concrete pavement will expand because of the heat.
Why is it that railways tracks laid with gaps in between their end?
The gaps between rails allow for expansion from heat. The space for expansion prebents buckling.
Why do roads have the gaps between the large pieces of concrete?
They are expansion gaps that allow for the expansion and contraction of the concrete.
