Mention the importance of writing the number in scientific notation​

Physics
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago
5 0
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h3>Scientific Notation was developed in order to easily represent numbers that are either very large or very small. ... As you can see, it could get tedious writing out those numbers repeatedly. So, a system was developed to help represent these numbers in a way that was easy to read and understand: Scientific Notation.</h3>

One ring of radius a is uniformly charged with charge +Q and is placed so its axis is the x-axis. A second ring with charge –Q i
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The force exerted on an electron is 7.2\times10^{-18}\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge = 3 μC

Radius a=1 m

Distance  = 5 m

We need to calculate the electric field at any point on the axis of a charged ring

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}

E_{1}=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}

Put the value into the formula

E_{1}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times3\times10^{-6}\times5}{(1^2+5^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

E_{1}=1.0183\times10^{3}\ N/C

Using formula of electric field again

E_{2}=\dfrac{kqx}{(a^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}\hat{x}

Put the value into the formula

E_{2}=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times(-3\times10^{-6})\times5}{((0.5)^2+5^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}

E_{2}=-1.064\times10^{3}\ N/C

We need to calculate the resultant electric field

Using formula of electric field

E=E_{1}+E_{2}

Put the value into the formula

E=1.0183\times10^{3}-1.064\times10^{3}

E=-0.045\times10^{3}\ N/C

We need to calculate the force exerted on an electron

Using formula of electric field

E = \dfrac{F}{q}

F=E\times q

Put the value into the formula

F=-0.045\times10^{3}\times(-1.6\times10^{-19})

F=7.2\times10^{-18}\ N

Hence, The force exerted on an electron is 7.2\times10^{-18}\ N

A stone with a mass of 0.100kg rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A bullet of mass 2.50g traveling horizontally at 500
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of stone (M) = 0.100 kg

mass of bullet (m) = 2.50 g = 2.5  ×10 ⁻³ kg

initial velocity of stone (u_{stone}) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity of bullet (u_{bullet}) = (500 m/s)i

Speed of the bullet after collision (v_{bullet}) = (300 m/s) j

Suppose we represent (v_{stone}) to be the velocity of the stone after the truck, then:

From linear momentum, the law of conservation can be applied which is expressed as:

m*u_{bullet} + M*{u_{stone}}= mv_{bullet}+Mv_{stone}

(2.50*10^{-3} \ kg) (500)i+0 = (2.50*10^{-3} \ kg)(300 \ m/s)j + (0.100 \ kg)v_{stone}

(2.50*10^{-3} \ kg) (500)i- (2.50*10^{-3} \ kg)(300 \ m/s)j=  (0.100 \ kg)v_{stone}

v_{stone}= (1.25\  kg.m/s)i-(0.75\ kg m/s)j

v_{stone}= (12.5\  m/s)i-(7.5\ m/s)j

∴

The magnitude now is:

v_{stone}=\sqrt{ (12.5\  m/s)^2-(7.5\ m/s)^2}

\mathbf{v_{stone}= 14.6 \ m/s}

Using the tangent of an angle to determine the direction of the velocity after the struck;

Let θ represent the direction:

\theta = tan^{-1} (\dfrac{-7.5}{12.5})

\mathbf{\theta = 30.96^0 \ below \ the \ horizontal\ level}

An airplane traveling at one third the speed of sound (i.e., 114 m/s) emits a sound of frequency 3.72 kHz. At what frequency doe
nlexa [21]

Answer:

f'=5.58kHz

Explanation:

This is an example of the Doppler effect, the formula is:

f'=\frac{(v+v_o)}{(v+v_s)}f

Where f is the actual frequency, f' is the observed frequency, v is the velocity of the sound waves, v_o the velocity of the observer (which is negative if the observer is moving away from the source)  and v_s the velocity of the source  (which is negative if is moving towards the observer). For this problem:

f=3.72kHz\\v=342m/s\\v_o=0m/s\\v_s=-114m/s

f'=\frac{(342+0)}{(342-114)}3.72\times10^3\\f'=\frac{342}{228}3.72\times10^3\\f'=(1.5)3.72\times10^3\\f'=5580Hz=5.58kHz

A 15-watt bulb is connected to a circuit that has a total of 60. Ω of resistance. How many electrons are passing through that bu
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

3.2075*10^16

Explanation:

Q=P/V just search up a converter and youll get 30V and so you do 15/30 which is a half and a single coulomb is 6.415*10^16 so you half it. I belive this is correct if you dont belive me wait for someone else smarter to answer and compare.

A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s. Approximately how much time does it take the ball to travel from the release loc
zvonat [6]

I'm going to assume that this gripping drama takes place on planet Earth, where the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².  The solutions would be completely different if the same scenario were to play out in other places.

A ball is thrown upward with a speed of 40 m/s.  Gravity decreases its upward speed (increases its downward speed) by 9.8 m/s every second.

So, the ball reaches its highest point after (40 m/s)/(9.8 m/s²) = <em>4.08 seconds</em>. At that point, it runs out of upward gas, and begins falling.

Just like so many other aspects of life, the downward fall is an exact "mirror image" of the upward trip.  After another 4.08 seconds, the ball has returned to the height of the hand which flung it.  In total, the ball is in the air for <em>8.16 seconds</em> up and down.
