Since the Earth is almost spherical in shape, we are actually to find first the volume of the spherical segment at a depth of 1,000 m. The radius of the Earth is 6,371,000 meters. The volume of a spherical segment is:
V = 1/3*πh²(3r - h)
Substituting the values and making sure the units is in mm,
V = 1/3*π(1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)²[3(6,371,000 m * 1000 mm/1 m) - (1000 m * 1000 mm/1 m)]
V = 2×10²² mm³
Thus, the total amount of bacteria is:
2×10²² mm³ * 100 bacteria/1 mm³ = 2×10²⁴ bacteria
Answer:
320 N/m
Explanation:
From Hooke's law, we deduce that
F=kx where F is applied force, k is spring constant and x is extension or compression of spring
Making k the subject of formula then
Conversion
1m equals to 100cm
Xm equals 25 cm
25/100=0.25 m
Substituting 80 N for F and 0.25m for x then
Therefore, the spring constant is equal to 320 N/m

Answer:
θ = 4.78º
with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the east - north
Explanation:
This is a velocity compound exercise since it is a vector quantity.
The plane takes a direction, the air blows to the west and the result must be to the north, let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the speed
v_fly² = v_nort² + v_air²
v_nort² = v_fly² + - v_air²
Let's use trigonometry to find the direction of the plane
sin θ = v_air / v_fly
θ = sin⁻¹ (v_air / v_fly)
let's calculate
θ = sin⁻¹ (10/120)
θ = 4.78º
with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the north-east
Answer:
Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium in order to transport their energy. Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. ... Sound is a mechanical wave and cannot travel through a vacuum.
