Nearly all elements heavier than hydrogen were not created by the Big Bang. They came from the element factories we call stars. ... This extra heat begins to fuse helium atoms into heavier elements like carbon and oxygen and gives new life to the star. BTW I GOT THIS FROM SAFARI :)

Answer:

They came from the element factories we call stars. Stars are mostly hydrogen throughout most of their lifespans. They are driven by massive and continuous thermonuclear reactions and gravity. ... This extra heat begins to fuse helium atoms into heavier elements like carbon and oxygen and gives new life to the star.

36. Dimensional Analysis: A useful way to convert units using multiplication &amp; division *Always start with what you are give
ollegr [7]

Answer:

A) 7.9 x 10⁶ inches

B) 1004 g

C) 2.8 x 10³ inches/ min

D) 1.2 x 10⁻⁴ mm

Explanation:

A) Since 39.37 inches = 1 m, you can convert meters to inches by multiplying by the conversion factor (39.37 inches /  1 m).

Notice that if 39.37 inches = 1 m then 39.37 inches / 1 m = 1. That means that when you multiply by a conversion factor, you are only changing units since it is the same as multiplying by 1 :

2.0 x 10⁵ m * (39.37 inches /  1 m) = 7.9 x 10⁶ inches

B) Conversion factors : (2.205 pounds / 1 kg) and (453.59 g / 1 pound), because 2.205 pounds = 1 kg and 1 pound = 453.59 g. Then:

1.004 kg * ( 2.205 pounds / 1 kg) * ( 453.59 g / 1 pound) = 1004 g

C) Conversion factor: (39.37 inches / 1 m) and (60 s / 1 min)

1.2 m/s * (39.37 inches / 1 m) * ( 60 s / 1 min) = 2.8 x 10³ inches/ min

D)Converison factor ( 1 mm / 1 x 10⁶ nm):

120 nm (1 mm /  1 x 10⁶ nm) = 1.2 x 10⁻⁴ mm
