That was Tycho Brahe, and I thought it was actually more years than that.

The wavelength of red light is 7 x 10^-7 meter. Express this value in nanometers

3241004551 [841]

The wavelength of the red light in "nanometer" is 7× $10^{2}$

Wavelength is given as : 7× $10^{-7}$ meter

1 nanometer = ( $10^{-9}$ meter)

Let X= value of the wavelength in nanometer.

1 nanometer = $10^{-9}$ meter

X nanometer = 7× $10^{-7}$ meter

<em>If we Cross multiply</em>

X nanometer = ( $\frac{ 7* 10^{-7} }{ 10^{-9} }$ )

X= 7× $10^{2}$ nanometer

Therefore, the wavelength in "nanometer" is 7× $10^{2}$

Vector A has y-component Ay= +15.0 m . A makes an angle of 32.0 counterclockwise from the +y-axis. What is the x component of A?

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

x-component=-9.3 m

Magnitude of A=17.7m

Explanation:

We are given that

$A_y=+15 m$

$\theta=32^{\circ}$

We have to find the x-component of A and magnitude of A.

According to question

$A_y=\mid A\mid cos\theta$

Substitute the values then we get

$15=\mid A\mid cos32$

$\mid A\mid =\frac{15}{cos32}=\frac{15}{0.848}$

$\mid A\mid=17.7$ m

$tan\theta=\frac{perpendicular\;side}{Base}$

$tan32=\frac{A_x}{A_y}=\frac{A_x}{15}$

$0.62\times 15=A_x$

$A_x=9.3$

The value of x-component of A is negative because the vector A lie in second quadrant.

Hence, the x- component of A=-9.3 m

Which of the following is a major way in which oceans contribute to weather systems?

mylen [45]

Since, the options are not given the question is incomplete the complete question is as follows.:

Which of the following is a major way in which oceans contribute to weather systems?

provide a diverse habitat for many organisms

experience changes in amounts of dissolved salts

store and transport the Sun's heat energy

reach depths that can be as much as 12000 meters

Answer: Store and transport the Sun's heat energy.

Explanation:

Oceanic currents are just like a conveyor belt. It helps in transportation of the warm water and the precipitation from the equator to the poles and the cold water in the poles towards the tropics. This way the oceans counteract the uneven distribution of the radiation of sun that reaches upto the surface earth. This will regulate the global climate.

IM SOO CONFUSED PLS HELP!! The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by ____ Atomic Mass unit

nevsk [136]

Answer:

option a.

Explanation:

We can think of an atom as a nucleus (where the protons and neutrons are) and some electrons orbiting it.

We also know that the mass of an electron is a lot smaller than the mass of a proton or the mass of an electron.

So, if all the protons and electrons of an atom are in the nucleus, we know that most of the mass of an atom is in the nucleus of that atom.

Then we define the mass number, which is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. Such that the mass of a proton (or a neutron) is almost equal to 1u

Then if we define A as the total number of protons and neutrons, and each one of these weights about 1u

(where u = atomic mass unit)

Then the weight of the nucleus is about A times 1u, or:

A*1u = A atomic mass units.

Then the correct option is:

The mass of the nucleus is approximately EQUAL to the mass number multiplied by __1__ Atomic Mass unit.

option a.
