A unit of time sometimes used in microscopic physics is the "shake". One shake equals 10−8 s.
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

(a) There are 3.17 times more shakes in a second than seconds in a year.

(b) Humans have existed for 9067.72 universe seconds.

Explanation:

(a) First we calcule how many seconds are in a year. One year have 365 days, one day has 24 hours, one hour has 60 minutes and one minute has 60 seconds, so:

60s*60*24*365=3.1536*10^7s

Now, we calculate how many shakes are in a second:

1s*\frac{1shake}{10^{-8}s}=10^8shakes

Finally, we calculate how many more shakes in a second are there than seconds in a year:

\frac{10^8s}{3.1536*10^7s}=3.17

(b) Using a simple rule of three we can calculate  how many "universe seconds" have humans existed, recall that 1 day has 86400 seconds:

1010 years--------->86400s

106 years----------> x seconds

x=\frac{106y*86400s}{1010y}=9067.72s

B = 0.018 T Ans, 

Since, it is moving in a circular path, thus, centripetal force will act on it i.e.
F =  \frac{ mv^{2} }{r}
where, m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity and r is the radius of circular path.

And, since a positive charge is moving, it will create magnetic force which is equal to F = qvB
where q is the charge, v is the velocity of the particle and B is the magnetic field.
Now, the two forces will be equal,
i.e. \frac{ mv^{2} }{r} = qvB
⇒ \frac{ mv }{r} = qB
⇒B = \frac{ mv }{qr}
<span>putting the values, we get,
</span>
use q = 1.6 * 10^ -19
⇒ B = 0.018 T

The temperature dependence of classical expression for electrical resistivity is​
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

The resistivity of materials depends on the temperature as ρt = ρ0 [1 + α (T – T0). This is the equation that shows the relationship between the resistivity and the temperature.

A car drives 24 meters to the left in three seconds what is the velocity of the car?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

8 m/s to the left.

Explanation:

Applying,

V = d/t...................... Equation 1

Where V = Velocity of the car, d = distance, t = time

From the question,

Given: d = 24 meters, t = 3 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 1

V = 24/3

V = 8 m/s to the left.

Hence the velocity of the car is 8 m/s to the left.
