A number is written in scientific notation when it is the product of a number less than 10 but greater than or equal to 1 and a

power of 10. All numbers in scientific notation have the following form.
A✕10^n
The mass of the Sun is 1,990,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. Express the mass in kg using scientific notation. (Enter your answer using one of the following formats: 1.2e-3 for 0.0012 and 1.20e+2 for 120. WebAssign allows you to enter answers using scientific notation. For example, a number in scientific notation such as 1.32 104 would need to be entered as 1.32e4. The system requires that you do not use spaces. Enter your answer to two decimal places.)Â

Answer:

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg

Explanation:

Given

Mass = 1,990,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000\ kg

Required

Rewrite using scientific notation

The format of a number in scientific notation is

Digit = a * 10^n

Where 1 \geq\ a\geq\ 10

So the given parameter can be rewritten as

Mass = 1.99 * 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000\ kg

Express as a power of 10

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg

Hence, the equivalent of the mass of the sun in scientific notation is:

Mass = 1.99 * 10^{30} kg

Sunlight has its maximum intensity at a wavelength of 4.83 x 10'm; wha energy does this correspond to in e?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

E = 2,575 eV

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the Planck equation and the relationship of the speed of light with the frequency and wavelength

     E = h f

     c = λ f

Where the Planck constant has a value of 6.63 10⁻³⁴ J s

Let's replace

    E = h c / λ

Let's calculate for wavelengths

    λ = 4.83 10-7 m     (blue)

    E = 6.63 10⁻³⁴ 3 10⁸ / 4.83 10⁻⁷

    E = 4.12 10-19 J

The transformation from J to eV is 1 eV = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J

    E = 4.12 10⁻¹⁹ J (1 eV / 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ J)

    E = 2,575 eV

The air in a 22C room contains water at a partial pressure of 14 mm Hg. What is the relative humidity?
Naily [24]

Answer:

70.35%

Explanation:

The relative humidity is a percentage and is the ratio between the partial pressure of water and the vapor pressure of water times 100% The partial pressure gives you an idea of the amount of water in the air whereas the vapor pressure is related with the maximum amount of water that can be in the air for a given temperature.

Vp(h2o) -> Vapor pressure of water

p(h2o) -> Partial pressure of water

RH -> Relative humidity

Vp(h20) at 22°C = e^(20.386 - (5132 / (temperature + 273)) = 19.9 Torr

(1 Torr == 1 mm Hg)

RH = p(h2o)/Vp(h2o)*100% = (14/19.9)*100% = 70.35%

Note: The formula used to find the vapor pressure of water is an approximation, to get a better value you could use a table to determine the vapor pressure of water at a certain temperature. Remember that Vp(h2o) is a constant for a given temperature.
