The radius of a niobium atom is 131 pm. how many niobium atoms would have to be laid side by side to span a distance of 2.40 mm

Physics

pochemuha4 years ago

First, we must know the following conversions:

1 pm = 10⁻¹² m
1 mm = 10⁻³ m

Therefore,
1 pm = 10⁻⁹ mm

The radius of the atom is 131 pm, which means that the span of one atom, the diameter, is 262 pm.

Number of atoms needed = distance to be covered / span of one atom
Number of atoms needed = 2.4 / 262 x 10⁻⁹
Number of atoms needed = 9.16 x 10⁷

9.16 x 10⁷ atoms of niobium will be needed

I need help in this pls i really need a answer
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

In terms of distance, average speed is 20 km/h

In terms of displacement, average speed is 0 km/h.

Explanation:

Total distance:

= (40.0 - 10.0) + (20.0 - 10.0) + (40.0 - 20.0) \\  = 30.0 + 10.0 + 20.0 \\  = 60.0 \: km

Total time is 3.0 hours

but:

average \: speed =  \frac{total \: distance}{total \: time}  \\

In terms of distance.

substitute:

average \: speed =  \frac{60.0}{3.0}  \\  \\  = 20 \:  {kmh}^{ - 1}

displacement = ( - 30.0) + 10 .0+ 20.0 \\  = 0

In terms of displacement:

speed =  \frac{0}{3}  \\  \\  = 0 \:  {kmh}^{ - 1}

A figure skater skates across a rink of length 50 m in 12.1 seconds. a. What is the average speed of the skater? (2 points) b. I
melamori03 [73]
(a) The skater covers a distance of S=50 m in a time of t=12.1 s, so its average speed is the ratio between the distance covered and the time taken:
v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{50 m}{12.1 s}=4.13 m/s

(b) The initial speed of the skater is
v_i = 4 m/s
while the final speed is
v_f = 5.3 m/s
and the time taken to accelerate to this velocity is t=2 s, so the acceleration of the skater is given by
a= \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}= \frac{5.3 m/s-4.0 m/s}{2.0 s}=0.65 m/s^2

(c) The initial speed of the skater is 
v_i = 13.0 m/s
while the final speed is 
v_f=0
since she comes to a stop. The distance covered is S=8 m, so we can use the following relationship to find the acceleration of the skater:
2aS=v_f^2 -v_i^2
from which we find
a= \frac{-v_i^2}{2S}= \frac{-(13.0m/s)^2}{2 \cdot 8.0 m}=-10.6 m/s^2
where the negative sign means it is a deceleration.

An ideal gas, initially at a pressure of 11.2 atm and a temperature of 299 K, is allowed to expand adiabatically until its volum
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The pressure is  P_2  =  4.25 \ a.t.m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The initial pressure is P_1  =  11.2\ a.t.m

   The  temperature is  T_1 =   299 \ K

   

Let the first volume be  V_1 Then the final volume will be  2 V_1

 Generally for a diatomic  gas

           P_1 V_1 ^r  =  P_2  V_2  ^r

Here r is the radius of the molecules which is  mathematically represented as

    r =  \frac{C_p}{C_v}

Where C_p \  and\   C_v are the molar specific heat of a gas at constant pressure and  the molar specific heat of a gas at constant volume with values

     C_p=7 \  and\   C_v=5

=>   r =  \frac{7}{5}

=>  11.2*( V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } ) =  P_2  *  (2 V_1 ^{\frac{7}{5} } )

=>   P_2  =  [\frac{1}{2} ]^{\frac{7}{5} } * 11.2

=>  P_2  =  4.25 \ a.t.m

What are the main activities involved in studying physics?
Firlakuza [10]
The main activity that is involved in studying of physics is the study of natural laws. The study of physics has to do with many aspects of the universe. Physics majorly looks into the natural laws that operate in the universe and describe how they affect matter in relation to time.
