Which types of numbers does scientific notation best describe?
Travka [436]
The correct answer is
<span>c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
</span>0.0000000001
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
</span>1\cdot 10^{-10}
<span>2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
</span>10000000000
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
</span>1 \cdot 10^{10}<span>
</span>

The histogram below shows the number of downloads of a song over time.
Allisa [31]

Given data:

  • It is a graphical display where the data is grouped in to ranges
  • A diagram consists rectangles, whose area is proportional to frequency of a variable and whose width is equal to the class interval.
  • It is an accurate representation of the distribution of numerical data.

<em>From Figure:</em>  

        Each box in the graph (small rectangle box) is assumed to be one download. So, in the graph the time between 8 p.m to 9 p.m, the number of downloads are 8.75 approximately (because the last box is incomplete, therefore 8 complete boxes and 9th is more than half).

<em>So, We conclude that the total number of downloads are approximately 9 in the time span of 8 p.m. to 9 p.m.</em>

Lightning produces a maximum air temperature on the order of 104K, whereas a nuclear explosion produces a temperature on the ord
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

tex]2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}[/tex] ultraviolet region

2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m} x-ray region

Explanation:

T = Temperature

b = Constant of proportionality = 2.898\times 10^{-3}\ \text{m K}

\lambda = Wavelength

T=10^4\ \text{K}

From Wein's law we have

\lambda=\dfrac{b}{T}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{10^4}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m}

The wavelength of the radiation will be 2.898\times 10^{-7}\ \text{m} and it is in the ultraviolet region.

T=10^7\ \text{K}

\lambda=\dfrac{2.898\times 10^{-3}}{10^7}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m}

The wavelength of the radiation will be 2.898\times 10^{-10}\ \text{m} and it is in the x-ray region.

A girl rides her bike 5.4 km due east. While riding she experiences a resistive force from the air that has a magnitude of 3.1 N
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

(A) = 34,560 J

(B) Work done during the round trip is not zero, hence the resistive force is not a conservative force.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A girl rides her bike 5.4 km due east. While riding she experiences a resistive force from the air that has a magnitude of 3.1 N and points due west. She then turns around and rides due west, back to her starting point. The resistive force from the air on the return trip has a magnitude of 3.3 N and points due east.? (a) Find the work done by the resistive force during the round trip. (b) Based on your answer to part (a), is the resistive force a conservative force? Explain.

SOLUTION:

distance covered by the girl due east (De) = 5.4 km = 5400 m

magnitude of resistive force by the air (Fw) = 3.1 N due west

distance covered by the girl due west (Dw) = 5.4 km = 5400 m

magnitude of resistive force by the air (Fe) = 3.3 N due east

(A) to find the work done by the resistive force during the round trip we have to get the work done by the resistive force due west and add it to the work done by the resistive force due east

  • work done by the resistive force due west = (Fw.cosθ) x De

        where θ is the angle between the displacement and the force. The    

        displacement is due east while the force is due west, hence θ = 180°

       work done (W1) = (3.1 x cos 180) x 5400 = -16,740 j

  • work done by the resistive force due east = (Fe.cosθ) x Dw

        where θ is the angle between the displacement and the force. The    

        displacement is due west while the force is due east, hence θ = 180°

       work done (W2) = (3.3 x cos 180) x 5400 = -17,820 j

Hence work done during the round trip = W1 + W2 = (-16,740 ) + (-17,820)

= 34,560 J

(B) A conservative force is a force in which the work done by the force in moving an object around a closed path is zero. From part (A) above the work done during the round trip is not zero, hence the resistive force is not a conservative force.
