The average diameter of an atom is 2 x 10-8 m. what if the average diameter of an atom was 1 cm? how tall would you be? (10)

Respuesta :

The tall would be 2 x [tex]10^{-6}[/tex] m

Explanation:

Given

Use D1 and D2 to represent the old and new diameters.

D1 =  2 x [tex]10^{-8}[/tex]

D2 = 1cm

To determine how tall you'd be, we need to divide D2 by D1:

Ratio = [tex]\frac{D2}{D1}[/tex]

Substitute values for D2 and D1

Ratio = [tex]\frac{2*10^{-8} }{1cm}[/tex]

Convert cm to m

Ratio = [tex]\frac{2*10^{-8} }{0.01}[/tex]

Convert denominator to exponents

Ratio = [tex]\frac{2*10^{-8} }{10^{-2} }[/tex]

Apply the Law of indices

Ratio = [tex]2*10^{-8} *10^{2}[/tex]

Ratio = [tex]2*10^{-8+2}[/tex]

Ratio = [tex]2*10^{-6}[/tex]

Therefore [tex]2*10^{-6}[/tex]m time falls.
