Bacteria vary somewhat in size, but a diameter of 2.9 μm is not unusual.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

a) 6.4 x 10^-12 cm^3

b) 17 x 10^-6 mm^2

Explanation

a). The shape is assumed to be spherical The volume = volume of a sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

= 6.3715 μm^3

1 μm^3 = 10^-12 cm^3

6.3715 μm^3 = 6.3715 x 10^-12 cm^3

==> 6.4 x 10^-12 cm^3

In an experiment designed to measure the Earth's magnetic field using the Hall effect, a copper bar 0.550 cm thick is positioned
motikmotik

Answer:

B= 4.197*10^-5T

Explanation:

We know that the magnetic Field of the Earth is 50\mu T, so the equation for

Hall effect voltage und magnetic field are defined as,

\Delta V_H = \frac{IB}{nqt}

B=\frac{nqt\Delta V_h}{I}

So,

B=\frac{(8.48*10^{28})(1.6*10^{-19})(0.0055)(4.5*10^-{12})}{8}

B= 0.00004197

B= 4.197*10^{-5}T

When an object is dropped from the top of a tall cliff, your teacher tells you to use -10 m/s2 for the approximate acceleration
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

1. Answer: Option C

Displacement is a vector quantity. It has both magnitude as well as direction. Hence, it can be positive,  zero or negative. In the given question, downward direction is taken as negative. This we have come to know from the downward acceleration -10m/s^2. The negative sign indicates that downward direction is considered negative.

Now, since the object is dropped from the top. The displacement should be negative, because the negative represent a downward direction.

2. Answer: velocity

The truck is travelling at 30 mph to the west. From the unit mph (miles per hour), we know its a magnitude of velocity. West indicates the direction. Hence, the given quantity is a vector -velocity.

It is not speed because speed only indicates the magnitude and not the direction. speed is a scalar quantity.

Q1.
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

P = 450 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a child, m = 18 kg

The vertical distance from the top to the bottom of the slide is 2.5 metres.

The Gravitational field strength = 10 N/kg

We need to find the decrease in gravitational potential energy of the child sliding from the  top to the bottom of the slide.

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by :

P = mgh

Substituting all the values,

P = 18 kg × 10 m/s² × 2.5 m

P = 450 J

Hence, the decrease in gravitational potential energy is 450 J.
