The age of the universe is around 100,000,000,000,000,000s. A top quark has a lifetime of roughly 0.000000000000000000000001s. W

riting numbers out with all these zeros is not very convenient. Such quantities are usually written as powers of 10. The age of the universe can be written as 1017s and the lifetime of a top quark as 10−24s.
How many top quark lifetimes have there been in the history of the universe (i.e., what is the age of the universe divided by the lifetime of a top quark)? Note that these powers of 10 follow the same rules that any exponents would follow.

Answer:

10⁴¹ s quark top lives have been in the history of the universe.

Explanation:

You need to determine how many quark top lives there have been in the history of the universe, that is, what is the age of the universe divided by the lifetime of a top quark. Expressed in a formula, this is:

t\frac{Age of the universe}{Lifetime of a top quark}

Yo know that the "Age of the universe" is 100,000,000,000,000,000  which can also be expressed as 10¹⁷ s .

You also know that the "Lifetime of a top quark" is 0.000000000000000000000001 which can also be expressed as 10⁻²⁴ s.

Then t=\frac{10^{17} }{10^{-24} }

Recalling that the result of dividing two powers of the same base is another power with the same base where the exponent is the subtraction of the initial exponents, it is possible to calculate this division as follows:

t=10^{17-(-24)}

t=10^{17+24}

<u><em>t=10⁴¹ s</em></u>

So <u><em>10⁴¹ s quark top lives have been in the history of the universe.</em></u>

horsena [70]

The correct options are:

1 How tall are you?

2How far is it from your house to your school?

3How wide is your refrigerator?

All these measurements involve to measure a length. Instead, the other two options involve to measure different physical quantities; for instance, the question

An electron and a proton have charges of an equal magnitude but opposite sign of 1.60 10-19 C. If the electron and proton in a h
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The proton's electrostatic force exerted on the electron will be 3.5×10¹² N.

<h3>What is the electrostatic force?</h3>

It is a force imposed by one charge on another as a result of the field.

The electrostatic force produced by one line charge on another line charge separated by r is determined by the charge potency of each charge as well as the separation distance between them.

The electrostatic force is found as:

\rm F= \frac{Kq_1q_2}{R^2} \\\\ F= \frac{9 \times 10^ 9 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times -1.6 \times 10^{-19} }{(2.00\times 10^{-11})^2} \\\\\ F= 3.5 \times 10^{12} \ N

Hence, the proton's electrostatic force exerted on the electron will be 3.5×10¹² N.
