Bacteria vary in size, but a diameter of 2.0 µm is not unusual. What are the volume (in cubic centimeters) and surface area (in

square millimeters) of a spherical bacterium of that size?

A = 4\pi r^2

A = 4\pi (2\mu m /2)^2 (10^{-6}m/1\mu m)^2 (1mm/10{-3})^2

A = 1.33*!0^{-5}MM^2

When you ride your bike around a corner at 10 m/s, you are accelerating?

WINSTONCH [101]

When you ride your bike around a corner at 10 m/s, you are accelerating. Acceleration is caused by any forces. Sliding friction keeps you in the seat when a car goes around a corner. If you throw a ball into the air, Earth exerts a force on the ball.

A displacement is related to time as x = A sin(2?ft), where A and f are constants. Find the dimensions of A. [Hint: A trigonomet

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

The right option is C. i.e L

Explanation:

Dimension of a quantity is the collection of the indexes of each of the fundamental quantities contained in it.

Therefore, to get the dimension of A in the equation

X=Asin(2(pi)ft)

Making A the subject of the formula

A = X / (sin(2(pi)ft)

Since sin(2(pi)ft which is a trigonometric function does not have a dimension

A = L

The dimension of A is L

Does Newton’s 1st Law of Motion apply to sports

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: Yes indeed it does.

Explanation: Newton's Three Laws of Motion explain how forces create motion in sport. These laws are usually referred to as the Laws of Inertia, Acceleration, and Reaction. maybe brainliest to level up.

Which is the most common use for infrared waves?

fiasKO [112]

<span>Infrared light is even used to heat food sometimes - special lamps that emit thermal infrared waves are often used in fast food restaurants! Shorter, near infrared waves are not hot at all - in fact you cannot even feel them. These shorter wavelengths are the ones used by your TV's remote control.</span>

Two satellites are orbiting earth at different altitudes. Which satellite orbits at a higher speed v around earth? Assume that t

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

a) the one with a lower orbit b) the one with a higher orbit

Explanation:

Let's consider orbital mechanics. To get an object in orbit, we need it to fall to earth parallel to the earth's surface. To understand it easily imagine a projectile thrown horizontally further and further away, at one point, the projectile hits the cannon from behind. Considering there is no wind resistance, that would be a projecile in orbit.

In other words, the circular orbits of some objects around a massive body are due to the equality between centrifugal acceleration and gravity acceleration.

$\frac{v^2}{r} = \frac{GM}{r^2}$ .

so the velocity is

$v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r} }$

where "G" is the gravitational constant, "M" the mass of the massive body and "r" the distance between the object and the center of gravity of mass M. As you can note, if "r" increase, "v" decrease.

The orbital period of any object in orbit is

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{a^3}{GM} }$

where "a" is length of semi-major axis (a = r in circular orbits). So if "r" increase, "T" increase.
