Question

speck of dust weighs 1.6 x10 kg. How many such particles would weigh1,6?

Answer 1

Answer:

$10^{-10}$ particles

Explanation:

Given that,

Speek of dust weighs $1.6\times 10^{-10}\ kg$

We need to find the number of such particles that would weight 1.6 kg.

Let there are n number of particles.

It can be calculated as :

$n=\dfrac{\text{Total weight}}{\text{Weight of each particles}}\\\\=\dfrac{1.6}{1.6\times 10^{-10}}\\\\=10^{10}$

Hence, there are $10^{-10}$ particles.
