Three liters (3000 cm3) of oil is spilled onto a smooth lake. If the oil spreads out uniformly until it makes a circular oil sli

ck just one molecule thick, with adjacent molecules just touching, estimate the diameter of the oil slick. Assume the oil molecules are round with a diameter of 2 x 10-10 m.

Answer:

4.38 km

Explanation:

Volume of oil slick, V = Area of oil slick, A × thickness of 1 molecule, d'

Since the oil slick spreads out in a circular area, it has the area of a circle.

So, V = πd²/4 × d'

d² = 4V/πd'

d = 2√(V/πd') where d = diameter of oil slick.

Since V = 3000 cm³ = 3000 × 10⁻⁶ m³ = 3 × 10⁻³ m³ and d' = 2 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

So, d = 2√(3 × 10⁻³ m³/(π × 2 × 10⁻¹⁰ m))

= 2√(3 × 10⁻³ m³/(6.283 × 10⁻¹⁰ m))

= 2√(0.477 × 10⁷ m²) = 2√(4.775 × 10⁶ m²)

=  2 × 2.19 × 10³ m

= 4.38 × 10³ m

= 4.38 km

Pleaseeeee HELPPPP THIS IS TIMED ALSO,
TEA [102]

Answer:

Friction, normal force, and weight

Explanation:

If the book slows down, it means that there must be friction acting in the opposite direction of the direction the book is moving in.

Weight is caused by the gravitational pull of the Earth on the book, and normal force is the table pushing the book up because the book is pushing down on the table (3rd law.)

Note that weight and normal force is not the 3rd law action-reaction pair. The pair is the force of the book on the table and the force of the table on the book.
