Suppose you have avogadro\'s number of mini marshmallows and use them to cover the state of california which has a land area of

1.560 × 105 mi2. each mini marshmallow has a diameter of 0.635 cm and a height of 2.54 cm. assuming the marshmallows are packed together so there is no space between them, to what height above the surface, in kilometers, will the mini marshmallows extend

Avogadro's number is equal to 6.02 E 23

Thie means we have 6.02 E 23 marshmallows.

Assuming each marshmallow to be a small cylinder we can calculate the area of its base

Area circumference = pi*r² = pi * (0.635/2)² = 0.317 cm²

So, 6.02 E 23 marshmallows * 0.317 cm² cover a total area of 

Area covered = 1.908 E 23 cm² = 1.908 E 13 km²

<span>The land area of california is  1.560 E 5 mi</span>² = 4.04 E 5 km²

If we divide the Areas >>>>

1.908 E 13 km² / 4.04 E 5 km² =  47. 227 E 6  (This is the number of times the area of California could be filled with those marshmallows)

Now for the height, we multiply this number times the height of each marshmallow

47. 227 E 6 * 2.54 cm = 119.96 E 6 cm = 1199.6 km above the surface

A cylinder of compressed gas has a pressure of 488.2 kPa. The next day the cylinder of gas has a
Luda [366]

Answer:

20 °C

Explanation:

Ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

Rearranging:

P / T = nR / V

Since n, R, and V are constant:

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

488.2 kPa / T = 468 kPa / 281.15 K

T = 293.29 K

T = 20.1 °C

Rounded, the temperature was 20 °C.

Kissa and Lily ran a race in gym class Lily was off balance so she did not start until 2 seconds had passed
Paul [167]
Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Tissa covered 60 meters in 10 seconds. Her average speed was

(60 m) / (10 sec) = 6 m/s.

That's the slope of the dotted line.

Lilly covered 60 meters in 8 seconds. Her average speed was

(60 m) / (8 sec) = 7.5 m/s .

That's the slope of the solid line.

Lilly covered the same distance in less time, and both girls
arrived at the finish line together. Technically, in science talk,
we would say that Lilly ran "faster", and her average speed
was "greater".

We can detect that by looking at the graph, because Lilly's line
has the characteristic of being "steeper", and we know that the
slope of the line on a distance/time graph is "speed".

The lasers are red, meaning that they are giving off light in the _____ region of the electromagnetic spectrum
Softa [21]

As per the question the color of laser light is given as red.

If we arrange all the electromagnetic waves in the decreasing order of frequency ,then the electromagnetic spectrum contains gamma ray as the first which is followed by all other electromagnetic waves according to their frequency.

The visible light ranges from 400 nm to 700 nm which contains sunlight i.e white colors with it's constituent colors starting from violet to red. The red color is the longest wavelength part of the visible region.

The wavelength of visible light is longer than ultraviolet wave but smaller than infrared radiation. Except the bisible region,the color of radiation is invisible to eye.


As per the question the color of emiited laser radiation is red .Hence it must lie in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum.
