Answer:

c Gram

Explanation:

Mass is an intrinsec property of every object; it is somehow a measure of the "amount of matter" contained in the object.

The SI units of the mass is the kilogram (kg), where one of the sub-multiple of the kilogram is the gram (g). For measuring small objects, therefore, the gram is the appropriate unit.

The other units are wrong because:

- The meter is the unit of measure of the length

- The liter is a unit of measure for the volume

- Newton is the unit of measure for the force

What is environment balance
sesenic [268]

Answer:

If the number of organisms and biomass is in a proper proportion at different trophic levels in a region, the environment in that region is said to be balanced. This balance can get disturbed due to natural hazards or by human intervention.

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

d. all four jovian planets.

Explanation:

The Jovian planets are as follows -

URANUS , SATURN , JUPITER, and NEPTUNE .  

All these four jovian planets are having the rings , and the rings are made up of infinite number of small pieces of the ice and the rock .

Hence ,  

These planets are comparatively small and dense cores surrounded by massive layers of gas .

The force between two very small charged bodies is found to be F. If the distance between them is tripled without altering their
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

if the old force is F, the new force is F/9

Explanation:

Recall that the Coulomb force between to charges is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

Therefore, if the original distance "d" changes now to be "3d" (tripled), the denominator of the force expression will change from:

d^2 \,\,\, to \,\,\,(3d)^2 = 9\,d^2

thus reducing the original force by a factor 1/9

So if the old force is F, the new force is F/9

Suppose you wanted to hold up an electron against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above i
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

r = 5.08 m

Explanation:

The electric force of attraction or repulsion is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

We need to find how far above the electron would the proton have to be if you wanted to hold up an electron against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above it.

So, the force from the proton is balanced by the mass of the electron.

\dfrac{kq_pq_e}{r^2}=mg

r is distance

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{kq_pq_e}{mg}} \\\\r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8}} \\\\r=5.08\ m

So, proton have to be at a distance of 5.08 meters above the electron.
