A light year is a unit of distance. It is a distance that light can travel in a years time which is six trillion miles. It is used to measure the distances in space. To take one example, the distance to the next nearest big galaxy, the Andromeda Galaxy, from earth is 21,000,000,000,000,000,000 km.

Make the following conversion: 34.9 cL = _____ hL
aliina [53]
We know that: 1 L = 100 cL. Or 1 cL = 0.01 L. Then we will make the conversion: 34.9 cL = 34.9 / 100 L = 0.349 L. Also: 1 hL = 100 L. 0.349 L = 0.349 / 100 hL = 0.00349 hL. This can be also written as: 3.49 * 10^(-3) hL ( in the scientific notation ). Answer: 3.49 cL = 0.00349 <span>hL </span>

Shkiper50 [21]
1. <span>FX = 0 since the bottom charges are symmetrical about the y axis and the top charge is aligned with the y-axis
3. </span><span>FY > 0 since the bottom charges do not equate the top charge. The bottom charges have horizontal components which is less than q and adding them all, will not result to 3q.</span>

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

a) P1=100kpa

V1=6m³

V2=?

P2=50kpa

rearranging mathematically the expression for Boyle's law

V2=(P1V1)/P2=(100×6)/50=12m³

b) same apartment as in (a) but only the value of P2 changes

=> V2=(100×6)/40=15m³

Explanation:

since temperature is not changing we use Boyle's law. mathematically expressed as P1V1=P2V2

F + fr = 0

fr = -F

<u>fr = -40 N</u>
