Answer:
3.45×10⁻⁴mm (or 0.000345mm)
Explanation:
Use a method called dimensional analysis here. It involves a chain of conversions, so we'll need some conversions to work with.
- 1nm = 1×10⁻⁹m
- 1mm = 1×10⁻³m
- 345nm; which is given
If you knew the conversion from nanometers to millimeters then you could just do it in one step. But I don't, so I won't. Anyways, you put the conversions into fraction form like so:
And then orient them in a way where multiplying the two (or more in other instances) gives you the units you want. In this cas it's millimeters so you'll have:
(345nm)•(1×10⁻⁹m/1nm)•(1mm/1×10⁻³m)
Notice how all the units reduce except for mm. From here you just multiply across and should get 345×10⁻⁶mm which simplifies to 3.45×10⁻⁴mm.
Will increase strength: iron, nickel, steel
won't increase strength: wood, silver, glass

Here are the parts of the comet:
1. NUCLEUS: This is the frozen part of the comet. It is also known as the core. It is made up of ice and dust which are completely covered by organic matter. The nucleus usually consist of frozen water but other materials that are in frozen forms can be found in it. Comet nuclei are usually less than 16 kilometer in diameter.
2. COMA: The atmosphere of dust and gases formed when the nucleus vaporize. The coma refers to the envelope of gases that surround the comet's nucleus. The coma plus the nucleus forms the head of the comet. The coma is about a million kilometer in diameter and is made up of gases and dust which sublime from the comet's nucleus.
3. ION TAIL: Tail made of ions that appear to point away from the comet's orbit. The charged solar particles convert the gases found in the comet to ions thus forming an ion tail. The ion tail can measure over 100 million kilometer long and it accelerate much faster than the dust tail.
4. DUST TAIL: Tail made up of small solid dust particles. It is formed by radiation from the sun, which forces dust particles away from the coma. It usually point away from the sun because the tail are shaped by the solar wind. As the distance from the sun increases, the dust tail usually become faint and diminished.
Answer:
a) 0.32 m b) -2.4 m c) 1.08 m/s d) -4 m/s
Explanation:
a)
- As the x and y axes (as chosen) are perpendicular each other, the movements along these axes are independent each other.
- This means that we can use the kinematic equations for displacements along both axes.
- In the x direction, as the only initial velocity is in the south direction (-y axis), the skateboarder is at rest, so we can write:
- In the y-direction, as no acceleration is acting on the skateboarder, we can write the following displacement equation:
- For t = 0.6s, replacing by the givens, we get the position (displacement from the origin) on the x-axis, as follows:
b)
- From (2) we can get the position on the y-axis (displacement from the origin) as follows:
c)
- In the x- direction, we can find the component of the velocity along this direction, as follows:
- Replacing by the values, we have:
d)
- As the skateboarder moves along the y-axis at a constant speed equal to her initial velocity, we have:
vfy = voy = -4 m/s
