5 0

Explanation:

a) 7.5= 111.1×2°= 0.1111×2^3

which can also be written as

(1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16)×8

sign of mantissa:=0

Mantissa(9 bits): 111100000

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 0011

the final for this is:011110000000011

b) -20.25= -10100.01×2^0= -0.1010001×2^5

sign of mantissa: 1

Mantissa(9 bits): 101000100

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 00101

the final for this is:1101000100000101

c)-1/64= -.000001×2^0= -0.1×2^{-5}

sign of mantissa: 1

Mantissa(9 bits): 100000000

sign of exponent: 0

Exponent(5 bits): 00101

the final for this is:1100000000100101

Copper exists in nature as two isotopes. The atomic masses and relative abundance of these isotopes is given in the table. What
Alona [7]
<span>The correct answer should be B) 63.55. That's because the most precise number is 63.546, but you would write 55 because 46 is rounded that way in the equation. The others are a bit higher, while E is a completely different element, Iodine. This isn't the most precise piece of data because in reality there would be a slight differentiation of +- 0,003u</span>

.You have always been impressed by the speed of the elevators in your apartment building. You wonder about the maximum accelerat
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

5.51 m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial scale reading = 50 kg  

assume the greatest scale reading = 78.09 kg

<u>Determine the maximum acceleration for these elevators</u>

At rest the weight is = 50 kg

Weight ( F ) = mg = 50 * 9.81 = 490.5 N<u> </u>

<u> </u>At the 10th floor weight = 78.09 kg

Weight at 10th floor ( F ) = 78.09 * 9.81 = 766.11 N

F = change in weight

Change in weight( F ) = ma = 766.11 - 490.5 (we will take the mass as the starting mass as that mass is calculated when the body is at rest)

50 * a = 275.61

Hence the maximum acceleration ( a ) = 275.61 / 50 = 5.51 m/s^2

A car has an acceleration of 1.5 m/s2. A net force of 2100 N is acting on the car. What is the mass of the car?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Given

acceleration (a) =1.5ms2

Force(F) =2100N

R. t. c mass (m) =?

Form

F=ma(divided by m both sides)

m=F/a

m=2100/105

m=1400kg

mass of car =1400kg
