Answer:
486 of cell membranes
Explanation:
one cell membrane has 7*10^-9m as the height
So, by dividing 3.4 with 7*10^-9 you will get the number of cell require to form the height.
3.4/(7*10^-9)=485.71
because we can't have decimal number of cell we would round it into three significant figures, 486.

A body when dropped into a jar ,containing kerosene and glycerine ,sinks below the kerosene level to float in glycerine as infig .What can we say about the densities of kerosene ,glycerine and the body
Answer:
we can say that that in an increasing order, the body is less dense than the glycerine, and the glycerine is less dense than the kerosene.
Explanation:
If the body sinks below the kerosene level to float in glycerine, then it means that the kerosene is denser than glycerine. This is because bodies will float higher in a denser fluid that a less denser fluid. Also, since the body floats in kerosene and glycerine, then the body is less dense than the kerosene and the glycerine. Finally, we can say that that in an increasing order that the body is less dense than the glycerine, and the glycerine is less dense than the kerosene
I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! :) The value of the total current is: A. 3.5A B. 4.0 A C. 4.5A D. 5.0 A
Answer:
Option C. 4.5 A
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of R1 and R3. This can be obtained as follow:
R1 = 6 Ω
R3 = 3 Ω
Equivalent of R1 and R3 =?
Since R1 and R3 are in parallel connections, we shall their equivalence as follow:
Equivalent of R1 and R3 = (R1×R3) /(R1 + R3)
Equivalent of R1 and R3 = (6×3)/(6+3)
Equivalent of R1 and R3 = 18/9
Equivalent of R1 and R3 = 2 Ω
Next, we shall determine the equivalent resistance in the circuit.
This is illustrated below:
R2 = 2 Ω
Equivalent of R1 and R3 = 2 Ω
Equivalent resistance (R) in the circuit =?
Note: Equivalent of R1 and R3 is in series connection with R2.
Equivalent Resistance (R) = (Equivalent of R1 and R3) + R2
Equivalent Resistance (R) = 2 + 2
Equivalent Resistance (R) = 4 Ω
Finally, we shall determine the total current in the circuit as follow:
Potential difference (V) = 18 V
Equivalent Resistance (R) = 4 Ω
Current (I) =.?
From ohm's:
V = IR
Where V is the potential difference.
I is the current.
R is the resistance.
V = IR
18 = I × 4
Divide both side by 4
I = 18/4
I = 4.5 A
Therefore, the total current in the circuit is 4.5 A.

A bird flew 100 meters in 2 minutes. What was the birds speed ? (show all your work below)
Answer:
speed = 50 metres/minute
Explanation:
Distance traveled = 100 metres
Time taken =- 2 minutes
Speed =[tex]\frac{Distance }{Time}[/tex]
speed =[tex]\frac{100}{2}[/tex]
speed = 50 metres/minute
The speed of a bird that flies 100 meters in 2 minutes is 0.83 m/s.
The speed is a scalar magnitude defined as the quotient of the distance traveled and the time, as follows:
[tex] s = \frac{d}{t} [/tex]
Where:
d: is the distance = 100 m
t: is the time = 2 min
Hence, the bird's speed is:
[tex] s = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{100 m}{2 min} = 50 \frac{m}{min}*\frac{1 min}{60 s} = 0.83 m/s [/tex]
Therefore, the bird's speed is 0.83 m/s.

A cosmic-ray proton in interstellar space has an energy of 10.0 MeV and executes a circular orbit having a radius equal to that of Mercuryâs orbit around the Sun (5.80Ã10^10). What is the magnetic field in that region of space?
Answer:
= 7.88 × 10^-12 T
Explanation:
From the above question, we are told that:
Kinetic Energy of the proton is K. E = 10.0 MeV
Step 1
We convert 10.0 MeV to Joules
1 Mev = 1.602 × 10-13 Joules
10.0 MeV = 10.0 × 1.602 × 10^-13 Joules = 1.602 × 10^-12 J
Hence, the Kinectic energy of a proton = 1.602 × 10^-12 J
Step 2
Find the Speed of the Proton
The formula for Kinectic Energy =
K.E = 1/ 2 mv²
Where
m = mass of the proton
v = speed of the proton
K.E of the proton = 1.602 × 10^-12 J
Mass of the proton = 1.6726219 × 10^-27 kilograms
Speed of the proton = ?
1.602 × 10^-12J = 1/2 × 1.6726219 × 10^-27 × v²
1.602 × 10^-12J = 8.3631095 ×10^-28 × v²
v² = 1.602 × 10^-12/8.3631095 ×10^-28
v = √(1.602 × 10^-12/8.3631095 ×10^-28)
v = 43772331.227m/s
v = 4.3772331227 × 10^7m/s
Approximately = 4.4 × 10^7 m/s
Step 3
Find the Magnetic Field of that region of space
The formula for Magnetic Field =
B = m v / q r
We are told that the proton executes a circular orbit, hence,
mv = √2m(KE)
m = Mass of the proton = 1.6726219 × 10^-27 kg
K.E of the proton = 1.602 × 10^-12 J
v = speed of the proton = 4.4 × 10^7 m/s
q = Electric charge = 1.6 × 10^-19 C
r = radius of the orbit = 5.80Ã10^10 m
= 5.8 × 10^10m
Magnetic Field =
=√ (2 × 1.6726219 × 10^-27 kg × 1.602 × 10^-12 J) /( 1.6 × 10^-19 C × 5.80 × 10^10 m)
= 7.88 × 10^-12 T
The magnetic field in that region of space is approximately 7.88 × 10^-12 T

A dolphin emits a sound wave that hits a target 120 m away. The wave reflects back from the target to the dolphin. If the Bulk modulus of seawater is 2.3 x 10° N/m2 and the density of seawater is 1022 kg/m3. How long does it take the sound wave for the round trip?
Answer:
The time taken for the sound wave to make the round trip is 0.16 s.
Explanation:
Given;
distance traveled by the sound wave, d = 120 m
bulk modulus of sea water, B = 2.3 x 10⁹ N/m²
density of sea water, ρ = 1022 kg
The speed of the wave is given by;
[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho} } \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2.3*10^9}{1022} }\\\\v = 1500.16 \ m/s[/tex]
Speed is given by;
[tex]Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]
total distance of the round trip = 2 x 120m = 240 m
Time taken for the sound wave to make the round trip is given by;
[tex]Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed} \\\\Time = \frac{240}{1500.16} \\\\Time = 0.16 \ second[/tex]
Therefore, the time taken for the sound wave to make the round trip is 0.16 s.
Se lanza una bala con una velocidad inicial de 200 m/s y con un ángulo de inclinación de 30º respecto a la horizontal. Si se considera g=10 m/s2. ¿Cuál es el alcance de la bala?
Answer:
El alcance de la bala es 3464,1 m.
Explanation:
El alcance de la bala se puede calcular como sigue:
[tex]y = y_{0} + tan(\theta)*x - \frac{g}{2}*\frac{x^{2}}{(v_{0}cos(\theta))^{2}}[/tex]
En donde:
y: es la altura final = 0
[tex]y_{0}[/tex]: es la altura inicial = 0
x: es el alcance
θ: es el angulo respecto a la horizontal = 30°
[tex]v_{0}[/tex]: es la velocidad inicial = 200 m/s
g: es la gravedad = 10 m/s²
Entonces, tenemos:
[tex] y = y_{0} + tan(\theta)*x - \frac{g}{2}*\frac{x^{2}}{(v_{0}cos(\theta))^{2}} [/tex]
[tex] x = \frac{2tan(\theta)*(v_{0}cos(\theta))^{2}}{g} = \frac{2tan(30)*(200 m/s*cos(30))^{2}}{10 m/s^{2}} = 3464,1 m [/tex]
Por lo tanto, el alcance de la bala es 3464,1 m.

If an object on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a spring, displaced, and then released, it will oscillate. If it is displaced a distance 0.110 m from its equilibrium position and released with zero initial speed. Then after a time 0.815 s its displacement is found to be a distance 0.110 m on the opposite side, and it has passed the equilibrium position once during this interval.
Find (a) the amplitude; (b) the period; (c) the frequency.
a)The amplitude of the wave will be 0.120m.
b)The period of the wave will be 1.60s.
What is the frequency?Frequency is defined as the number of repetitions of a wave occurring waves in 1 second.
a)The amplitude of the wave will be 0.120m.
A is the initial displacement =0.120m
The amplitude represents the largest deviation from equilibrium. So that the amplitude of the wave will be equal to the maximum position.
Hence the amplitude of the wave will be 0.120m.
b)The period of the wave will be 1.60s.
The movement from maximum positive displacement to maximum negative displacement. The time period will be;
[tex]\rm \frac{T}{2} = 0.800 \\\\\ T= 1.6 \ sec[/tex]
Hence the period of the wave will be 1.60s.
c) The frequency of the wave will be 0.625Hz.
The frequency is inversely proportional to the time period. Frequency is found as;
[tex]\rm f=\frac{1}{T} \\\\ \rm f=\frac{1}{0.625} \\\\ \rm f=0.625 \ Hz[/tex]
Hence the frequency of the wave will be 0.625Hz.

Elisa: I think the skateboarder has the more total energy at the top bottom of the ramp than the bottom of the ramp.
Raymond: I think the skateboarder has the same total energy at all points on the ramp.
Which student do you agree with? Why?
Answer:
The correct option is;
Raymond: I think the skateboarder has the same total energy at all points on the ramp
Explanation:
The total energy, also known as the total mechanical energy, is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of the skateboarder
Given that the potential energy is the energy gained due to elevation, the maximum potential energy is obtained at the top of the ramp, while the maximum kinetic energy, which is the energy due to motion, is at the bottom of the ramp where the skateboarder moves fastest.
However, by the energy conservation principle, the kinetic energy of he skateboarder comes from the conversion of the potential energy, such that the total energy is the same at any particular point on the ramp.

El momento lineal de un coche que viaja hacia el norte a 20m/s es distinto al momento lineal del mismo auto viajando hacia el este con la misma rapidez.
Explanation:
The momentum of any object is given by the product of mass and velocity with which it is moving i.e.
p = mv
Momentum is a vector quantity. It means we can resolve it into rectangular components.
If the car is moving with a speed of 20 m/s in North direction, its momentum is given by :
[tex]p_y=20m\ \hat{j}\ kg-m/s[/tex] .....(1)
If the car is moving with a speed of 20 m/s in East direction, its momentum is given by :
[tex]p_x=20m\ \hat{x}\ kg-m/s[/tex] ....(2)
It is clear from equation (1) and (2) that the magnitude of momentum is same but the direction of momentum is different in both cases.

A large boulder has been perched on the side of a mountain for many years. What change would cause it to suddenly roll down the mountain?
Answer:
he weight vector approaches the point within the mass, the equilibrium becomes unstable
any change in the conditions of the environment can cause the rock to slide
Explanation:
In general, a rock in a mountain is in stable equilibrium with the help of the force of gravity that causes its weight to be within the center of mass, that is, the weight vector is first and then it is electing the center of mass.
When for some reason the weight vector approaches the point within the mass, the equilibrium becomes unstable, and any change in the conditions of the environment can cause the rock to slide, for example a rain that reduces the friction force.
It may happen that the weight vector is after the center of the hubs, in this case there is an unstable balance and the stone is held in place by the force of friction with the environment that surrounds it, if this friction decreases the rock will slide .

Which statement is accurate about mass or weight?
Mass can be measured in newtons.
Weight can be measured in pounds.
A bowling ball has the same mass as a golf ball.
Objects have the same weight regardless of where they are.
Answer:
Wright can be measured in pounds
Explanation:
Mass is the quantity of matter a body contains while weight is the measure of mass of a body. Weight is the product if mass and the acceleration due to gravity of a body.
If the mass of an object is known, we can determine the equivalent weight of such object and vice versa using the relationship W = mg
m is the mass if the object (in kg)
W is the weight
g is the acceleration due to gravity
g can be measured both on metre/seconds or lb/ft². This means that the weight of an object can be measured in both kgm/s² (Newton) and lb(pounds).
Also note that different object have different masses hence it is not always true to say that a bowling ball has the same mass as a golf ball.
Based on the explanation above, it can be concluded that Weight can be measured in pounds which gives the only correct statement.

A train starts from rest with acceleration of 0.5ms-2 find speed in Kmh-1 when it moved through 100m. (36kmh-1)
Answer:
36km/h
Explanation:
since the acceleration of the train was 0.5m/s² i.e it is constant . since the acceleration is constant you can use one of the "SUVAT" equations to find the answer.
the equation that best fits this question is: v²=u² + 2āS.
v stands for final velocity
u stands for intial velocity
v²=u² + 2āS since the car started from rest the intial velocity is zero.
v²=u² + 2āS
v²= 0 + 2(0.5m/s²)*100m
v²= 1m/s²*100m
√v²=√100m²/s²
v=10m/s
1km/hr = 1/3.6m/s
x. = 10m/s.
use criss cross method to find the value of x
x=( 1km/hr* 10m/s)

During first half of a journey by a body it travel with a speed of 40km/hr and in the next half it travels with a speed of 20 km/hr .Calculate the average speed of the whole journey.
Answer:
Average speed = 26.67 km/h
Explanation:
It is given that,
The first half of the journey by a body is traveled with a speed of 40 km/h and the next half is covered with a speed of 20 km/h
We need to find the average speed of the whole journey. When two speeds are given, the average speed is given by :
[tex]v=\dfrac{2v_1v_2}{v_1+v_2}\\\\v=\dfrac{2\times 40\times 20}{40+20}\\\\v=26.67\ km/h[/tex]
So, the average speed of the body of the whole journey is 26.67 km/h.
A cement block accidentally falls from rest from the ledge of a 55.9-m-high building. When the block is 11.2 m above the ground, a man, 1.70 m tall, looks up and notices that the block is directly above him. How much time, at most, does the man have to get out of the way?
Answer:
0.3 seconds approximately
Explanation:
Given that the height of the building is 55.9 m and cement block accidentally falls from rest from the edge of a 55.9-m-high building. The initial velocity of the block will be equal to zero. The final velocity will be achieved by using the formula:
V^2 = U^2 + 2gH
Where g = 9.8 m/s^2
H = 55.9m
V^2 = 0 + 2 × 9.8 × 55.9
V^2 = 1095.64
V = sqrt(1095.64)
V = 33.1 m/s
The velocity When the block is 11.2 m above the ground will be 33.1 m/s and the height h = 11.2 - 1.7 = 9.5 m
The time of escape can be calculated by using the formula;
h = Ut + 1/2gt^2
9.5 = 33.1t + 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2
9.5 = 33.1t + 4.9t^2
4.9t^2 + 33.1t - 9.5
By using quadratic formula to calculate the time, the negative value is ignored and the positive values will be the time the man has to get out of the way.
