Algebra.Com's Answer #718124 by Alan3354(69443) You can put this solution on YOUR website! The mass of one particle is 8.9e-18 grams and the mass of a second particle is 5.5e-14 grams. \n" ); document.write( "How many times bigger is the second particle than the first particle? \n" ); document.write( "============= \n" ); document.write( "IDK how many times larger, no dimensions were given, but the masses can be compared. \n" ); document.write( "------------- \n" ); document.write( "5.5e-14/8.9e-18 = 5.5/8.9e4 \n" ); document.write( "= 0.618e4 \n" ); document.write( "--> 6.2e3 or 6.2*10^3 times as massive \n" ); document.write( "======================= \n" ); document.write( "\"times bigger\" is not the same as \"times as big\" tho it's not relevant when the factor is 6200, and it's rounded.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
