Answer:

The acceleration is g.

Taking the upward direction as positive

V = Vy y - 1/2 g t^2

Taking the downward direction as positive

V = -V y + 1/2 g t^2

One can choose either direction as positive, but the acceleration is

the same as g (it is g) while the projectile is in the air.

The average mass of a car in the US is 1.440 x 10^6 g. Express this mass in kg.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

Average mass of acar in the US (in kg) = 1440 kg

Explanation:

Average mass of a car in the US (in g) = 1.440 × 10⁶ g

Mass in kg:

$\rm 1 \: g = {10}^{ - 3} \: kg \\ \\ \rm 1.440 \times 10^6 \ g = 1.440 \times 10^6 \times {10}^{ - 3} \ kg \\ \\ \rm = 1.440 \times 10^{6 - 3} \ kg \\ \\ \rm = 1.440 \times 10^3 \ kg \\ \\ \rm = 1.440 \times 1000 \ kg \\ \\ \rm = 1440 \ kg$

A block lies on a frictionless floor. a force of 5 n pulls toward the east while a force of 4 n pulls toward the north. what is

Given below the arrangement of loading on the larger boat by two tug boats.

F₁ = 5 N

F₂ = 4 N

Angle between them θ = 90⁰

Resultant between two vectors, $F=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+2F_1F_2cos\theta }$

Substituting

$F = \sqrt{5^2+4^2+2*5*4*cos 90} \\ \\ = 6.403 N$

So magnitude of the net force on the block = 6.403 N

What is the explanation for how a modern transmission electron microscope (TEM) can achieve a resolution of about 0.2 nanometers

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

A simple light microscope uses light for imaging of objects where as a transmission electron microscope uses a monochromatic beam of electrons.

This beam is passed by a magnetic field which is very strong and thus act as a lens.

Its resolution of very high which is about 0.2 nanometers because of the separation between two atoms.

Because of this reason its resolution is about 1000 times greater than light microscope.
