The average radius(r) of each grain is r = 50 nanometers
= 50*10^-6 meters
Since it is spherical, so
Volume=(4/3)*pi*r^3
V= (4/3)*pi*(50*10^-6)^3
V=5.23599*10^-13 m^3
We are given the Density(ρ) =2600kg/m^3
We know that:
Density(p) = mass(m)/volume(V)
m = ρV
So the mass of a single grain is:
m = 5.23599*10^-13 * 2600 = 1.361357*10^-9 kg
The surface area of a grain is:
a = 4*pi*r^2
a = 4*pi*(50*10^-6)^2
a = 3.14*10^-8 m^2
Since we know the surface area and mass of a grain, the
conversion factor is:
1.361357*10^-9 kg / 3.14*10^-8 m^2
Find the Surface area of the cube:
cube = 6a^2
cube = 6*1.1^2 = 7.26m^2
multiply this by the converions ratio to get:
total mass of sand grains = (7.26 m^2 * 1.361357*10^-9 kg)
/ (3.14*10^-8 m^2)
total mass of sand grains = 0.3148 kg = 314.80 g
Answer: -3.49 m/s (to the south)
Explanation:
This problem can be solved by the Conservation of Momentum principle which establishes the initial momentum 
must be equal to the final momentum 
, and taking into account this is aninelastic collision:
Before the collision:
(1)
After the collision:
(2)
Where:
is the mass of the car
is the velocity of the car, directed to the north
is the mass of the truck
is the velocity of the truck, directed to the south
is the final velocity of both the car and the truck

Finally:
The negative sign indicates the direction of the velocity is to the south
A would be the wavelength, C would be a crest, D would be the amplitude, leaving B which is the trough.
For this case, let's
assume that the pot spends exactly half of its time going up, and half going
down, i.e. it is visible upward for 0.245 s and downward for 0.245 s. Let us take
the bottom of the window to be zero on a vertical axis pointing upward. All calculations
will be made in reference to this coordinate system. <span>
An initial condition has been supplied by the problem:
s=1.80m when t=0.245s
<span>This means that it takes the pot 0.245 seconds to travel
upward 1.8m. Knowing that the gravitational acceleration acts downward
constantly at 9.81m/s^2, and based on this information we can use the formula:
s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2)
to solve for v, the initial velocity of the pot as it enters
the cat's view through the window. Substituting and solving (note that
gravitational acceleration is negative since this is opposite our coordinate
orientation):
(1.8m)=(v)(0.245s)+(1/2)(-9.81m/s^2)(0.245s)^2
v=8.549m/s
<span>Now we know the initial velocity of the pot right when it
enters the view of the window. We know that at the apex of its flight, the
pot's velocity will be v=0, and using this piece of information we can use the
kinematic equation:
(v final)=(v initial)+(a)(t)
to solve for the time it will take for the pot to reach the
apex of its flight. Because (v final)=0, this equation will look like
0=(v)+(a)(t)
Substituting and solving for t:
0=(8.549m/s)+(-9.81m/s^2)(t)
t=0.8714s
<span>Using this information and the kinematic equation we can find
the total height of the pot’s flight:
s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2) </span></span></span></span>
s=8.549m/s (0.8714s)-0.5(9.81m/s^2)(0.8714s)^2
s=3.725m<span>
This distance is measured from the bottom of the window, and
so we will need to subtract 1.80m from it to find the distance from the top of
the window:
3.725m – 1.8m=1.925m</span>
Answer:
<span>1.925m</span>
No work is done because the object needs to be moved. The formula for work is Work = Force x Distance.
