Answer:

A ) 5.197 \times 10 ^{-9} inches

b) There are approximately 100,000,000 atoms on the 1.32 cm lines

Explanation:

To ensure the accuracy of our answer, we will have to make sure we work in the appropriate units.

A

To convert    1.32 \times 10^{-10}   m to inches, we can use this factor.

1 m = 39.3701 inches

Therefore 1.32 \times 10^{-10}   m =  

B

To find the number of atoms on a 1.32 cm line, we will first of all need to convert 1.32 cm to meters.

1.32 cm = 0.0132 metres (divided 1.32 by 100 to convert to metres)

Assuming all the atoms are arranged side by side, with their edges touching on the 0.0132m line, the number of atoms present will be

0.0132/1.32\times 10^{-10} = 100,000,000 atoms

Many organisms on Earth exhibit similar ____________.
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Characteristics.

Explanation:

On Earth, there are many organisms that shared similar characteristics with other organisms in various ways. These similarities of the characteristics could result from similar habitat, common ancestor, similar function, genetics, and many other reasons.

The example of such shared characteristics are different kinds of birds that have wings and lay eggs, while mammals give birth to babies and many other traits and characteristics. On the basis of the traits and characteristics organisms shared they are grouped and classified.

Calculate the energy equivalent in joules of the mass of a proton
Tamiku [17]
The problem should only have one part to it, but this one has two.
Before I can do the mass/energy conversion, I have to go and
look up the proton mass for myself ... go out and collect the straw
to make my bricks, as it were.  As if the fabulous bounty of 7 points
makes it worth it.  They make us do everything around here.

OK.  In my Physics book⁽¹⁾, the proton rest mass is

                       1.67 x 10⁻²⁷  kg.

The formula that relates mass to the equivalent energy is

                        E = m c²  .

The method of applying the formula is known as "plug in what you know",
as follows:

                       E  =  (mass) x (speed of light)²

                          =  (1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg) x (3 x 10⁸ m/s)²

                         =  (1.67 X 10⁻²⁷ Kg) x (9 x 10¹⁶ m²/s²) 

                          =        (1.5 x 10⁻¹⁰)  (kg-m²/s²)

                          =            1.5 x 10⁻¹⁰  joule .

The efficiency of a machine is always less than 100% because part of the energy input is used to
Travka [436]

Answer:

C. Overcome Friction

Explanation:

When using any machine usually those with moving parts, you may notice heat forming near the areas where most movement occurs. As friction continues, more energy is used up and released as heat. For that reason, the efficiency of a machine will forever be less than 100%
