Answer:

The number of charges is 1.25 × 10¹⁰

Explanation:

Current is the amount of charge flowing through a conductor per second. The formula for current (I) is given as:

I = Q/t

Where Q is the charge flowing in coulombs and t is the time taken in seconds.

Given that I = 2.0 nA = 2 × 10⁻⁹ A and t = 1 sec

I = Q / t

Q = It =  2 × 10⁻⁹ × 1 =  2 × 10⁻⁹ C

Since each charge = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C, therefore:

The number of charges = 2 × 10⁻⁹ C / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 1.25 × 10¹⁰

AlexFokin [52]

The wavelength of the wave is 0.055 m

Explanation:

The relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

v=f\lambda

where

v is the speed

f is the frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the sound wave in this problem we have

v = 340 m/s is the speed

f = 6,191 Hz is the frequency

Solving for \lambda, we find the wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{340}{6191}=0.055 m

A person kicks a 4.0-kilogram door with a 48-newton force causing the door to accelerate at 12 meters per second squared. What i
inna [77]

Answer:

-48 N

Explanation:

mass of door (m) = 4 kg

acceleration of the door = 12 m/s^{2}

force exerted by the person = 48 N

From Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal but opposite. Therefore the force exerted on the door by the person which is 48 N will be the same as the force exerted on the person by the door but opposite in its direction, and this would be - 48 N

Using the given equation you get:

E = 1.99x10^-25 / 9.0x10^-6

Divide 1.99 by 9.0: 1.99/9.0 = 0.22

For the scientific notation, when dividing subtract the two exponents:

25 -6 = 19

So you now have 0.22 x 10^-19

Now you need to change the 0.22 to be in scientific notation form:

2.2 x 10^-20

The answer is B.
