Answer:

Nanotechnology means working with materials at the scale of one billionth of a metre.

Explanation:

The prefix “nano” refers to one billionth: it’s part of the scientific scale of measurement. Its science, engineering, and technology are conducted at the nanoscale, which is about 1 to 100 nanometers. Nanoscience and nanotechnology are the study and application of extremely small things. Thus, this describes why the term nano is used to describe nanotechnology.

I hope this helps :)

What is the pressure at the bottom of a tank 1-m deep? Take the density of water to be 1000-kg/m^3, and gravitational accelerati

lara31 [8.8K]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to hydrostatic pressure. Which determines the pressure of a body at a given depth of a liquid.

Mathematically this can be described as

$P= \rho gh$

Here

$\rho$ = Density

g = Gravity

h = Height (Depth)

If we replace the values given in the equation we will have to

$P = 1000 (9.8)(1)$

$P = 9800 Pa$

Therefore the pressure at the bottom will be 9.8kPa

the net force on a vehicle is accelerating at a rate of 1.5 milliseconds is 1800 Newtons. What is the mass of the vehicles neare

Goryan [66]

Answer:

The mass is 1200 kilograms

Explanation:

Because Force is equal to mass times acceleration (F=m×a)

F=m×a

1800N=?×1.5

1800÷1.5=1200

1800N=1200Kg×1.5
