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

Explain how the basic unit are combined to give the derived units of force, velocity, pressure and work
LuckyWell [14K]

Velocity:

Velocity is change in displacement with respect to time:

\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

Analysing the units, meters (displacement) and seconds (time) are basic units:

\frac{m}{s}

Therefore the unit of velocity is m/s

Force:

Newton's second law of motion:

F = ma

Kilogram (mass) is a basic unit, and accelerations unit can be found using the equation:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}

Analysing the units:

\frac{\frac{m}{s}}{s}=\frac{m}{s^2}

Therefore, the unit of force is:

kg\frac{m}{s^2}

Pressure:

Pressure is given by the equation:

P=\frac{F}{S} where S is area of effect, F is force

Area for a basic rectangle (geometric shape is arbitrary for dimensional analysis) is found by multiplying two lengths:

[l^2]=m^2, the unit of area

Dividing the aforementioned unit of force by the unit of area:

\frac{kg\frac{m}{s^2}}{m^2}=\frac{kg}{ms^2}, the unit of pressure

Work:

Work is given by the equation:

W=\vec{F}\cdot \vec{x}, (dot product may be assumed as normal multiplication for the purposes of unit analysis)

Knowing displacement's (x) unit is m:

[W]=\frac{kgm}{s^2}m=\frac{kgm^2}{s^2}, the unit of work.

When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion?
fomenos
The correct answer is answer choice C. +1. Since electrons have negative charges, losing one electron will cause the atom to have a positive charge of 1. This charge comes from the protons, which, until one electron was lost, balanced out the negative charge of the electrons and caused the atom to be neutral.

True since coulomb's law states that There is electric force between like charges or opposite charges. The negative sign only shows the nature of the force.

<h3>What is the coulombs law ?</h3>

coulombs formula is given by

F=  \dfrac{K\times q_{1} \times q_{2}}{r^{2} }

Now it states that if two charged particles are separated by the distance r and having same or opposite charge will attract or repel each other.

The intensity of the force depend upon the distance and the nature of the charge.

Hence coulomb's law states that There is electric force between like charges or opposite charges. The negative sign only shows the nature of the force.

While strolling downtown on a Saturday afternoon, you stumble across an old car show. As you are walking along an alley toward a
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

1.44 m/s²

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+a\times 5\\\Rightarrow v=5a

This velocity will be the initial velocity of the car when it passes through the first building

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 3=5a\times 0.4+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 0.4^2\\\Rightarrow a=1.44\ m/s^2

The acceleration of the car is 1.44 m/s²
