Answer:

The carbon atom has unique properties that allow it to form covalent bonds to as many as four different atoms, making this versatile element ideal to serve as the basic structural component, or “backbone,” of the macromolecules.

#1). Anthony does the same amount of work as Angel, with more power.

#2). Power = (Work)/(Time) = 41,000 J / 500 s = 82 watts .

#3). Power = (Work) / (Time) = 83 J / 3 sec = 27.7 watts

Two identical 9.10-g metal spheres (small enough to be treated as particles) are hung from separate 300-mm strings attached to t

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

$n = 1.266\times 10^{12}$

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of sphere is 10 g

Angle between string and vertical axis is $\theta = 13 degree$

thickness of string 300 mm = 0.3 m

$sin\theta =\frac{2}{0.3 m}$

r =0.3 sin 13 = 0.067 m

$Fe = \frac{ kq_1 q-2}{d^2}$

$Fe = \frac{kq^2}{(2r)^2} = mg tan\theta$

$q^2 = mg tan\theta \frac{(2r)^2}{k}$

$= 0.0091 \times 9.8 tan13 \times \frac{(2\times 0.067)^2}{9\times 10^9}$

$q^2 = 4.10\times 10^{-14}$

$q = 2.026 \times 10^{-7} C$

q = ne

$n = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19}}{2.02\times 10^{-7}}$

$n = 1.266\times 10^{12}$

alisha [4.7K]

If you think about it, changing the scale to which something is measured does not affect the repeatability of the measurement. For instance, if you have a meter stick which was labeled incorrectly, that doesn't affect the fact that every measurement you take of a certain fixed distance will still be the same. Precision does not equal accuracy.
