Answers

Answer 1
Answer: As electrons move through the conductor, some collide with atoms, other electrons, or impurities in the metal.

664.2 km=____cm

Answers

(664.2 km) · (1,000 m/km) · (100 cm/m) =

(664.2 · 1,000 · 100) (km·m·cm/km·m) =

66,420,000 cm

For metric conversion, you can remember this acronym for help:

King Henry died unusually drinking chocolate milk. Which stand for:

Kilo - unit * 1000

Hecto - unit * 100

Deca - unit * 10

Unit - unit * 1

Deci - unit * (1)/(10)

Centi - unit * (1)/(100)

Milli - unit * (1)/(100)

Kilometers and centimeters are five places apart apart, so you move the decimal point in 664.2 to the right five times, which means 664.2 km = 66420000 cm.

To avoid confusion on which direction to move the decimal point, imagine two shapes on each end of a scale. On each end, there is one large shape and one small shape. There has to be one of each on either side for it to balance. For this problem, a kilometer is a larger unit than a centimeter, so this means that the blank space needs to have a number greater than 664.2, or else the scale won't balance. Hope this helped.

the period of the satellite is exact 42.391 hours, the earth's mass is 5.98 kg and the radius of th earth is 3958.8 miles, what is the distance of the satellite from the surface of the earth in miles?

Answers

Answer:

As the mass is not written well, i will use the equation in terms of the gravitational acceleration:

The equation for the period of a satellite is:

T = 2*pi*\sqrt{(r^3)/(g*R^2) }

We want to find r, so isolating r we get:

r = \sqrt[3]{x ((T)/(2*pi) )^2*g*R^2}

Where:

T = period.

r = radius of the satellite.

R = radius of the planet.

g = gravitational acceleration of the planet.

pi = 3.14159...

g = 78999.64 mi/h^2 (value of a table)

T = 42.391 h.

R = 3958.8 miles

We can replace those values in the equation and get:

r = \sqrt[3]{ ((42.391)/(2*3.14159) )^2*78999.64*(3958.8)^2} = 38,339.5 mi

Now this value is measured from the center of the Earth, then the altitude of the satellite measured from the surface of the Earth will be:

H = r - R = 38,339.1mi - 3958.8mi =  34,380.3 mi

While the block hovers in place, is the density of the block (top left) or the density of the liquid (bottom center) greater?

Answers

Answer:

for the body to float, the density of the body must be less than or equal to the density of the liquid.

Explanation:

For a block to float in a liquid, the thrust of the liquid must be greater than or equal to the weight of the block.

Weight is

        W = mg

let's use the concept of density

        ρ_body = m / V

        m = ρ_body V

        W = ρ_body V g

The thrust of the body is given by Archimedes' law

        B = ρ_liquid g V_liquid

 

as the body floats the submerged volume of the liquid is less than or equal to the volume of the block

       ρ_body V g = ρ_liquid g V_liquid

     

       ρ_body = ρ liquid Vliquido / V_body

As we can see, for the body to float, the density of the body must be less than or equal to the density of the liquid.

Two microwave frequencies are authorized for use in microwave ovens: 895 and 2560 mhz. calculate the wavelength of each.

Answers

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

The speeds of the two possible signals are equal, just like
all other forms of electromagnetic radiation.

Wavelength of 895 MHz = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (8.95 x 10⁸/s) = 0.335 m

Wavelength of 2560 MHz = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) / (2.56 x 10⁹/s) =  0.117 m

d) 1.5hz

Show calculation

Answers

Answer:

1.5 x 10¹⁸hz

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Wavelength  = 2 x 10⁻¹⁰m

Unknown:

Frequency   = ?

Solution:

To find the frequency, use the expression below;

  V  = f x wavelength

V is the speed of light = 3 x 10⁸m/s

f is the frequency

Now;

 Insert the parameters

     3 x 10⁸  = 2 x 10⁻¹⁰ x frequency

   Wavelength = (3 x 10^(8) )/(2 x 10^(-10) )    = 1.5 x 10¹⁸hz
