1. Why should you use scientific notation when writing big numbers?

Physics
1 answer:
Fynjy0 [20]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

It helps the answer look clean. It also makes the work easier to work with.

Explanation:

Instead of writing a lot of zeros, all you have to do is add exponents to the number to show how much the decimal moved.

Calculate the angle of refraction of 30.0° light shines from water into ice. The indices of refraction for water and ice are 1.3
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The angle of refraction Ø2 equals 62.95° ≈ 63°

Explanation:

The relationship between the angles of incidence and

refraction , with respect to light or other waves passing through two different substances or media, such as glass, water or air is given by Snell's Law.

Snell's Law states that the when light travels from one medium to another, it generally refracts.

It is given by the mathematical expression;

[SinØ1°/SinØ2°] = [n2/n1]

Cross multiplying, we have;

n1 × SinØ1° = n2 × SinØ2°

where, n is the indices of refraction of each substance

Ø is the angle between the ray and the line normal to the surface.

Given the following values;

n1 = 1.36 n2 = 1.31 Ø1 = 30° Ø = ?

n1 × SinØ1° = n1 × SinØ2°

SinØ2° = [n1 × SinØ1°]/n2

substituting the values respectively;

SinØ2° = [1.36 × Sin30°]/1.31

SinØ2° = [1.36 × 0.5]/1.31

SinØ2° = 0.68 × 1.31

SinØ2° = 0.8906

Ø2° = Sin–¹(0.8906)

Ø2° = 62.95° ≈ 63°

An electron with a speed of 1.7 × 107 m/s moves horizontally into a region where a constant vertical force of 4.9 × 10-16 N acts
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

 y = 77.74 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use Newton's second law

        F = m a

        a = F / m

        a = 4.9 10⁻¹⁶ / 9.1 10⁻³¹

        a = 0.538 10¹⁵ m / s

This is the vertical acceleration of the electron.

Now let's use kinematics to find the time it takes to move the

         x= 29 mm = 29 10⁻³ m

On the x axis

            v = x / t

            t = x / v

            t = 29 10⁻³ / 1.7 10⁷

            t = 17 10⁻¹⁰ s

Now we can look for vertical distance at this time.

            y = v_{oy} t + ½ a t²

            y = 0 + ½ 0.538 10¹⁵ (17 10⁻¹⁰)²

            y = 77.74 10⁻⁵ m

The atomic radius of metal X is 1.20 × 102 picometers (pm) and a crystal of metal X has a unit cell that is face-centered cubic.
pickupchik [31]
The density of the metal can be determined through the formula [n*MW]/ Na*[a^3] . substituting, we get, 

<span>d = [n*MW]/ Na*[a^3] 
</span><span>d = [4 atoms*42.3 g/mol]/ [6.022 x 1023atoms/mol* (sqrt 8 *1.20x10-10)^3] 
</span>d = 0.719 g/cm3
