How do you move the decimal from megameters to meters?

Physics
1 answer:
Deffense [45]3 years ago
8 0
The prefix "mega" means million.
Therefore
1 megameter = 10⁶ meters

That is,
1.0 megameter = 1,000,000.0 meters.

Answer:
The decimal is moved right by 6 places to convert a megameter to meters.

Argon, atomic number 18, has an atomic weight of 39.9. Potassium, atomic number 19, has an atomic weight of 39.1. Which of these
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer: D

Explanation:

Atomic weight is measured by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus. Argon's atomic number is 18 while potassium's is 19. This means that Argon will always have 18 protons while potassium will always have 19 protons.

To make the numbers easier to work with, round each atomic weight. We'll say the atomic weight of potassium is 39 and the atomic weight of argon is 40. To see how many neutrons each one has, I can set up a simple equation for each using the following equation:

Atomic weight = protons + neutrons

Potassium:

39 = 19 + N  -->  N = 20

Argon:

40 = 18 + N  -->  N = 22

An atom is defined by the number of protons it has, but the number of neutrons can vary. We call these isotopes, or atoms with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons. As the math shows, argon typically has more neutrons per atom than potassium does.

A small, 3 kg weight is moved from 5 m from the ground to 8 m. What is the change in potential energy?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer: 88.2 J

Explanation: PE, OR Potential Energy, equals to mass gravity and height.

mass - 3kg

height - 3 because (8-5)

gravity is 9.8kg

so 3 times 3 times 9.8 = 88.2J

If a negative charge is initially at rest in an electric field, will it move toward a region of higher potential or lower potenti
monitta

Answer with explanation :

The negative sign means that the potential energy decreases by the movement of the electron.

negative charge at rest in an electric field moves toward the region of an electric field , so that its potential energy will diminish and change into the kinetic energy of motion. The total energy remains constant.

Positive charges will move downhill because of convention. It is to stay in accordance with other potential theories, particularly gravity, where the "charge" is mass, that moves downwards in the gravitational potential field expressed by ϕ(r)=−GM|r|ϕ(r)=−GM|r|. In an electronic system, howbeit, positive charges are fixed in their position within a component (e.g., a wire), therefore instead of the mobile,the negative charges, electrons, move uphill.
