<span>D) 9.0 x 10^10 km
This is more an exercise in handling scientific notation than anything else. Since we have the distance that light travels in 1 second and we want to calculate how far it travels in 5 minutes, we must first calculate how many seconds are in 5 minutes. Simply multiplying 5 by 60 gives us 300 seconds. Now we need to multiply 300 by 3.0x10^8 km. So
300 * 3.0x10^8 = ?
We could first convert 300 into scientific notion, but it's easier to just leave it along and assume that it's 300 x 10^0. So 300 times 3 is 900. And since 0 plus 8 is 8, we have as the answer:
900 x 10^8
But we're not done. The significand has to be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. So let's divide 900 by 100 and add 2 to the exponent. So we get
9 x 10^10
Finally, since our data had 2 significant figures, our result should have that as well. So let's add the 2nd digit getting:
9.0 x 10^10
So we know that light travels 9.0x10^10 km in 5 minutes, and that answer matches option "D" from the available choices.</span>
Answer:
332,193 years
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question above, we are to calculate the time in an half life question, hence, the formula is given as
t = In(Nt/No) ÷ -(In2/t½)
Where
t = time is takes for an substance to decay or reduce
Nt = Amount of sample after time = 2g
No = Initial amount of sample = 20g
t½ = Half life = 100,000 years
Hence,
t = In(2/20) ÷ (In 2/ 100,000)
t = 332192.80948874 years
Approximately = 332,193 years
(-36x^4y+144x²y^6) / (-4x²y) =
36xy*(x³+4xy^5) / (-4x²y) =
-9*(x³+4xy^5) / x
