Answer:

719

Explanation:

Conversion

1 picometer (pm) is equivalent to 1 × 10^{-12} meter

1 micrometer is equivalent to 1 × 10^{-6} meter

To find the number of layers, we divide the overal leaf thickness by the thickness of one atom hence dividing tex]0.125 × 10^{-6}[/tex] meter by 174 × 10^{-12} meter we get that the number of sheets will be as follows

\frac {0.125× 10^{-6}}{174\times 10^{-12}}=718.3908045\approx 719

Therefore, they are approximately 719 sheets

Can an object in motion ever change directions?
choli [55]

Answer:

Forces affect how objects move. They may cause motion; they may also slow, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object that is already moving. Since force cause changes in the speed or direction of an object, we can say that forces cause changes in velocity.

PLEASE HELP FOR PHYSICS!
Stolb23 [73]

Hi there!

Recall Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:

\large\boxed{F_g = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}}

Where:

Fg = Force of gravity (N)

G = Gravitational Constant

m1, m2 = masses of objects (kg)

r = distance between objects (m)

Plug in the given values stated in the problem:

F_g = (6.673*10^{-11})\frac{50 * 50}{25^2} = \boxed{2.669 * 10^{-10} N}

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:This is an explanation

for 150 km its all ik i tried hard ty

Explanation:The car covers 150 km in 3 hours or 3*60 = 180 minutes.

So in 12 min the car will cover (12/180)*150 = 10 km.

.Express 3.0x10-4 -1.7x10-6 with proper significant figure.
Sav [38]
Because of BOMDAS, you do the multiplication first.

(3.0x10) - 4 - (1.7x10) - 6

= 30 - 4 - 17 - 6

= 3

you are the science officer on a visit to a distant solar system. prior to landing on a planet you measure its diameter to be 1.
Eduardwww [97]

The mass of the star of the distant solar system is 82 * 10²² kg and the mass of the planet of the distant solar system is 8.58 * 10²⁵ kg

The planet stays in its orbit and moves in a centripetal motion due to the gravitational force of attraction between the planet and the star.

Fc = m v² / r

Fg = G M m / r²

Fc = Fg

m v² / r = G M m / r²

v² = G M / r

M = r v² / G

g = Acceleration due to gravity

G = Gravitational constant

M = Mass of star

r = Distance between both bodies

G = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ N m² / kg²

r = 8.6 * 10¹¹ m

T = 402 days = 3.47 * 10⁷ s

v = 2 π r / T

v = 2 * 3.14 * 8.6 * 10¹¹ / 3.47 * 10⁷

v = 15.56 * 10⁴ m / s

Ms = 8.6 * 10¹¹ * 15.56 * 10⁴ / ( 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ )

Ms = 20.1 * 10²⁶ kg

F = G M m / r²

F = m g

Equating,

m g = G M m / r²

Mp = g r² / G

Mp = 63.6 * ( 1.8 * 10⁷ / 2 )² / 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹

Mp = 8.58 * 10²⁵ kg
