Answer:

please give me brainlist and follow

Explanation:

The heating of the Earth's surface and atmosphere by the sun drives convection within the atmosphere and ocean. This convection produces winds and ocean currents.

A red blood cell is 7 x 10-6 m in size. This means it is 7 __________ in size. What unit completes the sentence?

aalyn [17]

If a red blood cell is 7 x $10^-^6$ m in size, it means that such a cell is 7 microns or micrometer in size. The unit that completes the sentence will, thus, be microns or micrometer.

According to international system of measurement:

$10^{-1}$ m = decimeter

$10^{-2}$ m = centimeter

$10^{-3}$ m = millimeter
$10^{-6}$ m = micrometer or micron
$10^{-9}$ m = nanometer

Thus, a measurement of 7 x $10^-^6$ m is the same is 7 micons or 7 micrometer.

To demonstrate the tremendous acceleration of a top fuel dragracer, you attempt to run your car into the back of a dragster that

noname [10]

Answer:

a. 2v₀/a b. 2v₀/a

Explanation:

a. Since you are moving with a constant velocity v₀, the distance, s you cover in time = t max is s = v₀t.

Since the dragster starts from rest with an acceleration, a, using

s' = ut + 1/2at² where u = 0 and s' = distance moved by dragster

s' = 0t + 1/2at²

s' = 1/2at²

Since the distance moved by me and the dragster must be the same,

s = s'

v₀t. = 1/2at²

v₀t. - 1/2at² = 0

t(v₀ - 1/2at) = 0

t= 0 or v₀ - 1/2at = 0

t= 0 or v₀ = 1/2at

t= 0 or t = 2v₀/a

So the maximum time tmax = 2v₀/a

b. Since the distance covered by me to meet the dragster is s = v₀t in time, t = tmax which is also my distance from the dragster when it started. So, my distance from the dragster when it started is s = v₀(2v₀/a)

= 2v₀/a

An object is moving along a straight line, and the uncertainty in its position is 1.90 m.

just olya [345]

Answer:

$2.78\times 10^{-35}\ \text{kg m/s}$

$6.178\times 10^{-34}\ \text{m/s}$

$0.31\times 10^{-4}\ \text{m/s}$

Explanation:

$\Delta x$ = Uncertainty in position = 1.9 m

$\Delta p$ = Uncertainty in momentum

h = Planck's constant = $6.626\times 10^{-34}\ \text{Js}$

m = Mass of object

From Heisenberg's uncertainty principle we know

$\Delta x\Delta p\geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi}\\\Rightarrow \Delta p\geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi\Delta x}\\\Rightarrow \Delta p\geq \dfrac{6.626\times 10^{-34}}{4\pi\times 1.9}\\\Rightarrow \Delta p\geq 2.78\times 10^{-35}\ \text{kg m/s}$

The minimum uncertainty in the momentum of the object is $2.78\times 10^{-35}\ \text{kg m/s}$

Golf ball minimum uncertainty in the momentum of the object

$m=0.045\ \text{kg}$

Uncertainty in velocity is given by

$\Delta p\geq m\Delta v\geq 2.78\times 10^{-35}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq \dfrac{2.78\times 10^{-35}}{m}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq \dfrac{2.78\times 10^{-35}}{0.045}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq 6.178\times 10^{-34}\ \text{m/s}$

The minimum uncertainty in the object's velocity is $6.178\times 10^{-34}\ \text{m/s}$

Electron

$m=9.11\times 10^{-31}\ \text{kg}$

$\Delta v\geq \dfrac{\Delta p}{m}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq \dfrac{2.78\times 10^{-35}}{9.11\times 10^{-31}}\\\Rightarrow \Delta v\geq 0.31\times 10^{-4}\ \text{m/s}$

The minimum uncertainty in the object's velocity is $0.31\times 10^{-4}\ \text{m/s}$ .
