Well now, I don't know !
Let's figure it out.

The charge on one electron is 1.60 x 10⁻¹⁹ Coulomb .

To get 3,500 Coulombs of charge, you'd need to
go around and collect

   (3,500) / (1.60 x 10⁻¹⁹) electrons.

That's 2.19 x 10²² of the little fellas.

That's a big number. But what's REALLY amazing is the
mass and weight of that many electrons:

   Mass: 1.989 x 10⁻⁵ gram

   Weight: about 0.0000007 ounce !

That's not one electron. That's the whole <span>2.19 x 10²² uvvum
that it takes to hold 3,500 Coulombs of charge.</span>

21.8452851 * 10^21 e. Which is 21.845.285.100.000.000.000.000 electrons. A lot.

Answer:

The ratio of electric force to the gravitational force is $2.27\times 10^{39}$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Distance between electron and proton, $r=4.53\ A=4.53\times 10^{-10}\ m$

Electric force is given by :

$F_e=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{r^2}$

Gravitational force is given by :

$F_g=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

Where

$m_1$ is mass of electron, $m_1=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

$m_2$ is mass of proton, $m_2=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

$q_1$ is charge on electron, $q_1=-1.6\times 10^{-19}\ kg$

$q_2$ is charge on proton, $q_2=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ kg$

$\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{Gm_1m_2}$

$\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}}$

$\dfrac{F_e}{F_g}=2.27\times 10^{39}$

So, the ratio of electric force to the gravitational force is $2.27\times 10^{39}$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Which statements describe using genetic factors to influence the growth of organisms? Select the three (3) that apply.

Damm [24]

Answer:

- increasing use of hybrid crops

- altering genes in DNA to create new plants

- developing disease or pest resistant crops

Explanation:

The use of genetic factors to influence the growth of a plant encompasses manipulating the genetic constituent (gene) of such plant.

For example,

- Increasing use of hybrid crops entails mating two pure bred plants based on a gene of interest responsible for a particular trait, to form a hybrid.

- Altering genes in DNA to create new plants is also a genetic factor as it has to with gene modification.

- developing disease or pest resistant crops means that the genetic make up of such plant has been modified to be resistant to pest/disease.
