Answer:
a) 1.8 × 10^-12 cm³ or 1.8 × 10^-12 cubic meters
b) 7.1 × 10^-6 mm² or 7.1 × 10^-6 square millimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We are assuming that the shape of the bacteria is a sphere.
Hence, Volume of the Sphere(Bacteria) = 4/3 × π × r³
Diameter = 1.5 μm
Radius = Diameter/2 = 1.5μm/2
= 0.75μm
We are told that the volume should be in cubic centimeters
Converting 0.75μm to centimeters
1 μm = 1 × 10^-4 cm
0.75 μm =
Cross Multiply
= 0.75 μm × 1 × 10^-4 cm/ 1 μm
= 0.000075cm
Volume of the Sphere(Bacteria) = 4/3 × π × r³
= 4/3 × π × (0.000075)³
= 1.767145867 × 10^-12 cm³
Approximately as 2 significant figures = 1.8 × 10^-12 cm³
b) The formula for the Surface area of a Sphere = 4πr²
Diameter = 1.5 μm
Radius = Diameter/2 = 1.5μm/2
= 0.75μm
We are told that the surface area should be in square millimeters
Converting 0.75μm to millimeters
1 μm = 0.001 mm
0.75 μm =
Cross Multiply
= 0.75 μm ×0.001mm/ 1 μm
= 0.00075mm
Surface Area of a Sphere
= 4 × π × r²
= 4 × π × 0.00075²
= 7.06858 ×10^-6 mm²
Approximately to 2 significant figures
= 7.1 × 10^-6 mm²

Options?
Step-by-step explanation:
33.3 because 27/50=36/x and x=66.67 and thats how much as decayed after 36 hours but you want what is left so subtract from 100 and get 33.3
What is 7x5x4, it is 140 so the volume is 140in^3 its a pretty simple problem
