How to change this to mega and giga prefixes?urgent .thankyou

Akimi4 [234]

$3*10^{8} m = 3*10^{5} km = 3*10^{2} Mm = 3*10^{-1} Gm$

Each increase in the prefix is a division by 1000.

A skateboarder, starting from rest, rolls down a 12.8-m ramp. When she arrives at the bottom of the ramp her speed is 8.89 m/s.

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

a) a = 3.09 m/s²

b) aₓ = 2.60 m/s²

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of her acceleration can be calculated using the following equation:

$V_{f}^{2} = V_{0}^{2} + 2ad$

<u>Where</u>:

$V_{f}$ : is the final speed = 8.89 m/s

$V_{0}$ : is the initial speed = 0 (since she starts from rest)

a: is the acceleration

d: is the distance = 12.8 m

$a = \frac{V_{f}^{2}}{2d} = \frac{(8.89 m/s)^{2}}{2*12.8 m} = 3.09 m/s^{2}$

Therefore, the magnitude of her acceleration is 3.09 m/s².

b) The component of her acceleration that is parallel to the ground is given by:

$a_{x} = a*cos(\theta)$

<u>Where</u>:

θ: is the angle respect to the ground = 32.6 °

$a_{x} = 3.09 m/s^{2}*cos(32.6) = 2.60 m/s^{2}$

Hence, the component of her acceleration that is parallel to the ground is 2.60 m/s².

I hope it helps you!

A metallic sheet has a large number of slits, 5.0 mm wide and 20 cm apart, and is used as a diffraction grating for microwaves.

san4es73 [151]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the principle of superposition and constructive interference, that is to say everything that refers to an overlap of two or more equal frequency waves, which when interfering create a new pattern of waves of greater intensity (amplitude) whose cusp is the antinode.

Mathematically its definition can be given as:

$d sin\theta =m\lambda$

Where

d = Width of the slit

$\theta =$ Angle between the beam and the source

m = Order (any integer) which represent the number of repetition of the spectrum, at this case 1 (maximum respect the wavelength)

Since the point of the theta angle for which the diffraction becomes maximum will be when it is worth one then we have to:

$\lambda = d$

$\lambda = 20cm = 20*10^{-2}m$

Applying the given relation of frequency, speed and wavelength then we will have that the frequency would be:

$f = \frac{v}{\lambda}$

Here the velocity is equal to the speed of light and the wavelength to the value previously found.

$f = \frac{3*10^8}{0.2}$

$f = 1.5Ghz$

Therefore the smallest microwave frequency for which only the central maximum occurs is 1.5Ghz

Krishne wants to measure the mass and volume of a key. Which tools should she use? a balance and a beaker of water a balance and

Ratling [72]

Balance and beaker of water. The balance will measure mass and the beaker will measure the volume when you take the initial volume without the key subtracting that value from the value with the key in the beaker
