Answer:

a)5.925

ii)149.5 or383.5

Explanation:

ii)3.9×105-2.5×104

409.5-260

the zero in 260 may or may not be significant since it is after two significant figures thus we have two options

1. A kangaroo hops 84 m to the east in 7 seconds.

DENIUS [597]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance hopped = 84m

Displacement = 84m due east

Time = 7s

Unknown:

Speed of kangaroo = ?

Velocity of kangaroo = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem,

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time }$ = $\frac{84}{7}$ = 12m/s

Velocity = $\frac{displacement}{time}$ = $\frac{84}{7}$ = 12m/s due east

Why doesn't the skateboarder roll as high each time she goes up the ramp

Westkost [7]

Answer:

The skater has mechanical/gravitational potential energy at the two meter mark. The skater gets to two meters high on the other end of the ramp. In terms of the conservation of energy, the skater will never go higher than two meter on the other end of the the ramp because energy can be neither created nor destroyed.

Enrico Fermi (1901–1954) was a famous physicist who liked to pose what are now known as Fermi problems, in which several assumpt

Katarina [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

(a)

Since the earth is assumed to be a sphere.

Volume of atmosphere = volume of (earth +atm osphere) — volume of earth

$= \frac{4}{3}\pi(6400+ 50)^3 - \frac{4}{3}\pi (6400)
^3\\\\= \frac{4}{3}\pi(6192125000) km’^3\\= 2.6\times 10^{19} m^3$

Hence the volume of atmosphere is $2.6\times 10^{19} m^3$

(b)

Write the ideal gas equation as foll ows:

$PV = nRT\\\\n\frac{0.20atm\times 2.6\times10^{19} m^3}{0.08206L\, atm/mok\, K \times (15+273+15)K}\times \frac{1L}{10^{-3}m^3}\\\\= 2.20\times 10^{20} moles$

$no.\, of\, molecules = 2.20\times 10^{20} moles \times \frac{6.022\times10^{23}\,molecules}{1mole}= 13.3\times10^{43} molecules
$

Hence the required molecules is $13.3\times10^{43} molecules
$

(c)

Write the ideal gas equation as follows:

$PV =nRT
\\\\n=\frac{1.0 atm \times 0.5L
}{0.08206 L\, atm/mol\,K \times (37 +273.1 5)K} = 0.0196 moles$

$no.\, of\, molecules = 0.0196 moles \times\frac{6.022\times10^{23} molecules}
{Imole}= 1.2\times 10^{23} molecules$

Hence the required molecules in Caesar breath is $1.2\times 10^{23} molecules$

(d)

Volume fraction in Caesar last breath is as follows:

$Fraction,\, X =\frac{12\times 10 molecules}{13.3\times 10^{43} \,molecules}= 9.0\times 10\, molecule/air\, molecule}$

(e)

Since the volume capacity of the human body is 500 mL.

$Volume\, of\, Caesar\, nreath\, inhale\, is =\frac{ 12\times 10^{22}\, molecules}{breath}\times \frac{9.0\times10^{-23} molecule}{air\, molecule}\\\\= 1.08 molecule/breath$
