If the nails dimensions were expressed in meters, we would have to divide it by 100.

In earlier times there were 3 main types of measurement systems:

1.The CGS system(centimetre, gram and second)

2.• The FPS system( foot, pound and second)

3.• The MKS system(metre, kilogram and second)

But in the present day, we use Système Internationale d’ Unites (French for International System of Units), abbreviated as SI.

The SI Unit of length is meter, but in many cases the length is given in centimeters.

So, we have to convert the value given in centimeter to meter by using the conversion factor which is,

1 meter = 100 centimeters

1 cm = 1/100 meter

Therefore, if the nails dimensions were expressed in meters, we would have to divide it by 100.

A conducting sphere 45 cm in diameter carries an excess of charge, and no other charges are present. You measure the potential o
uysha [10]

Answer:

The excess charge is Q  = 3.5 *10^{-7} \ C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The diameter is d = 45 \ cm  =  0.45 \ m

       The potential of the surface is V =  14 \ kV   =  14 *10^{3} \ V

     

The radius of the sphere is  

           r = \frac{d}{2}

substituting values

          r = \frac{0.45}{2}

         r = 0.225 \ m

The potential on the surface is mathematically represented as  

          V  =  \frac{k  *  Q  }{r }

Where k is coulomb's constant with value  k  =  9*10^{9}  \ kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4} \cdot A^{-2}.

  given from the question that there is no other charge the Q is the excess charge  

Thus  

        Q  =  \frac{V* r}{ k}

substituting values

        Q  =  \frac{14 *10^{3}  0.225}{ 9*10^9}

        Q  = 3.5 *10^{-7} \ C

You expend 1000 w of power moving a piano 10 meters in 5 seconds. how much force do you exert
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Force, F = 500 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Power expanded, P = 1000 W

Distance moved by piano, d = 10 m

Time taken, t = 5 s

To find,

The force exerted by the person

Solution,

The rate at which the work is being done is called power delivered. Its formula is given by:

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

W is the work done, W = F × d

P=\dfrac{Fd}{t}

On rearranging the above formula to find F as :

F=\dfrac{P t}{d}

F=\dfrac{1000\times 5}{10}

F = 500 N

Therefore, the force exerted on the person is 500 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
