Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of m and n when the time it takes a beam of

light to get from the Sun to the Earth (in s) is written in scientific notation. Note: the speed of light is approximately 3.0×108 m/s. Enter m and n, separated by commas.

Answer:

5,2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Speed of light C=3.0×10^8 m/s.

Generally the equation for Average Speed is mathematically given by

V_{avg}=\frac{d}{t}

Where

d=Distance between the Earth and the sun

d=1.5*10^11m

Therefore

t=\frac{d}{V_{avg}}

t=\frac{1.5*10^11m}{3.0×10^8 m/s.}

t=5*10^2s

Since m and n is given in the form of

m*10^n

Therefore

m=5 & n=2

How many electrons does it take to make up 4.33 C of charge?
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Number of electrons, n=2.7\times 10^{19}

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, q = 4.33 C

We need to find the number of electrons that make 4.33 C of charge. According to quantization of charge as :

q=ne

n = number of electrons

e = electron's charge

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

n=\dfrac{4.33\ C}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C}

n=2.7\times 10^{19}

So, the number of electrons are 2.7\times 10^{19} Hence, this is the required solution.

1. Two-point charges, QA = +8 μC and QB = -5 μC, are separated by a distance r = 10 cm. What is the magnitude and direction of t
densk [106]

Answer:

F = 36 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, q₁ = +8 μC

Charge, q₂ = -5 μC

The distance between the charges, r = 10 cm = 0.1 m

We need to find the magnitude of the electrostatic force. The formula for the electrostatic force is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\F=\dfrac{9\times 10^9\times8\times 10^{-6}\times 5\times 10^{-6}}{(0.1)^2}\\F=36\ N

So, the magnitude of the electrostatic force is 36 N.

A thin beam of light of wavelength 625 nm goes through a thin slit and falls on a screen 3.00 m past the slit. You observe that
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

a = 2.275 10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

This is a diffraction problem that is described by the equation

         a sin θ = m λ

         

The first dark minimum occurs for m = 1

         a = λ  / sin θ

The angle can be found by trigonometry,

       tan θ = y / x

       θ = tan⁻¹ y / x

Let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

        y = 8.24 mm = 8.24 10⁻³ m

        λ  = 625 nm = 625 10⁻⁹ m

       θ = tan⁻¹ 8.24 10⁻³ / 3.00

       θ = 0.002747 rad

We calculate

       a = 625 10⁻⁹ / sin 0.002747

       a = 2.275 10⁻⁴ m

Which of these refers to tempo?
Lilit [14]
The choice that would best describe the word "tempo" would be letter A which states that it is "a pace of music or speed of beats per minute." In addition, a tempo is an important characteristic of music because it is the one who carries the emotions and feelings of the composer towards the music he/she makes.
