Answer:

3×10⁵ N/m²

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force (F) = 450 N

Area (A) = 0.0015 m²

Pressure (P) =?

Pressure is simply defined as the force per unit area. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Pressure (P) = Force (F) / Area (A)

P = F/A

With the above formula, we can obtain the pressure exerted by the man on the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Force (F) = 450 N

Area (A) = 0.0015 m²

Pressure (P) =?

P = F/A

P = 450 /0.0015

P = 3×10⁵ N/m²

Thus, the pressure exerted by the man on the ground is 3×10⁵ N/m².

The diameter of the He He atom is approximately 0.10 nm nm . Calculate the density of the He atom in g/cm 3 g/cm3 (assuming that

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Density of the He atom = 12.69 g/cm³

Explanation:

From the information given:

Since 1 mole of an atom = 6.022x 10²³ atoms)

1 atom of He = $1 \ atom \times (\dfrac{1 \ mole}{ 6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms}) \times ( \dfrac{4.003 \ grams}{ 1 \ mole})$

$=6.647 \times 10^{-24} \ grams$

The volume can be determined as folows:

since the diameter of the He atom is approximately 0.10 nm

the radius of the He = $\dfrac{0.10}{2}$ = 0.05 nm

Converting it into cm, we have:

$0.05 nm \times \dfrac{10^{-9} \ meters}{ 1 nm} \times \dfrac{ 1 cm }{10^{-2} \ meters}$

$=5 \times 10^{-9} \ cm$

Assuming that it is a sphere, the volume of a sphere is

= $\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

= $\dfrac{4}{3}\pi \times (5\times 10^{-9})^3$

= $5.236 \times 10^{-25} \ cm^3$

Finally, the density can be calcuated by using the formula :

$Density = \dfrac{mass}{volume}$

$D = \dfrac{6.647 \times 10^{-24} \ grams }{ 5.236 \times 10^{-25} \ cm^3}$

D = 12.69 g/cm³

Density of the He atom = 12.69 g/cm³
