Answer:

Most polymers, including poly(ethene) and poly(propene) are not biodegradable . This means that microorganisms cannot break them down, so they: cause a litter problem if disposed of carelessly. last for many years in landfill sites.

Convert the mass to kgs thanks
Natali [406]
Memorize this and you'll be able to do ALL of these:  <em>1  kg = 1,000 g</em>

So if you have some grams, divide the number by 1,000 to get kilograms.

1,000 g = 1.000 kg

500 g = 0.500 kg

100 g = 0.100 kg

50 g = 0.050 kg

20 g = 0.020 kg

10 g = 0.010 kg

Gold, which has a mass of 19.32 g for each cubic centimeter of volume, is the most ductile metal and can be pressed into a thin
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

area = 5733.33  cm²

length = 5.47 ×10^{7} cm

Explanation:

Given data

density = 19.32 g/cm³

mass = 33.16 g

thickness = 3.000 µm = 3 ×10^{-4} cm

radius r = 1.000 µm = 1 ×10^{-4} cm

to find out

area of the leaf and  length of the fiber

solution

we know volume formula that is

volume = mass / density

volume = 33.16 /  19.32

volume = 1.72 cm³

we know that volume = thickness × area

so area

area = volume / thickness

area = 1.72 / 3 ×10^{-4}

area = 5733.33  cm²

and

we know volume = πr²L

so L = volume /  πr²

length = 1.72 / π(1×10^{-4})²

length = 5.47 ×10^{7} cm

A farsighted boy has a near point at 2.3 m and requires eyeglasses to correct his vision. Corrective lenses are available in inc
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

P = 3.5 D

Explanation:

As we know that convex lens is to be used to make the near point of eye to be correct

So we will have

\frac{1}{d_i} + \frac{1}{d_o} = \frac{1}{f}

here we have

d_i = 2.3 m = 230 cm

d_o = 25 cm

now plug in all values into the formula

-\frac{1}{230} + \frac{1}{25} = \frac{1}{f}

f = 28 cm

now for power of lens

P = \frac{1}{f}

P = \frac{1}{0.28} = 3.5 D

so the power in dioptre is

P = 3.5 D

If a man weighs 900 n on the earth, what would he weigh on jupiter, where the acceleration due to gravity is 25.9 m/s2?
balandron [24]
<span>So, if the man weight 900 newtons on Earth then that means, using F=ma, that the mass of the man is approximately 91.84 kg. This is because 900N=m(9.8m/s^2), and so it follows that 900/9.8=91.84. Using the man's found mass we then plug this into F=ma again. It follows that F=(91.84)(25.9)=2378.57N. This means that the man "weighs" 2378.57 Newtons on Jupiter, or about 2.5x as great as his weight on Earth. This makes sense, considering that 25.9/9.8 is approximately equal to 2.64.</span>
