You are not expected to know anything about particle physics to answer this question. The property called "frizz" has been invented for this question (so don't bother trying to look it up) although it is related to real physical quantities. You are expected to answer this question using only the tools of dimensional analysis. A newly discovered elementary particle called zippy has some interesting properties. We know that the radius zippy depends only on the mass of zippy, the speed of light, and a property of zippy called "frizz." The mass of zippy is 3.17 x 10-27 kg. The speed of light is 3.00 x 108 m/s. The frizz of zippy is 3.46 x 1022 s² / ( m³ kg) ... that says 3.46 x 1022 kg -1 -3 g? m We can estimate the radius of zippy is 1.0 x 10N meters. Which of the following is our best estimate for N?

Hello, can you please explain how to approach this problem? I don't just want the answer, I need to know the method to solve this question and ones similar to it please
The answer for this problem would be "B" but could you explain me why? The reason for this is to understand this kind of problems in the future not only this one.
Can you please provide a full explanation and complete solution to this problem? Please make sure to double check your work. THANKS!!
That did answer a lot of questions. Thank you. But where do you derive the equation E=(K|q|)/r? My book says E=(K|q|)/r^2. I tried re-arranging some equations to get your equation, but I can't figure it out. Thanks.
Your formula is correct, but number is not. You forgot to multiply t=24s in step 1, at the line .... = 999v. So follow your formula, the answer will be 77.34m. I rated (y).
If you used only a keyboard to enter data, how many years would it take to fill up the hard drive in your computer that can store 95gigabytes95gigabytes (95×109bytes95×109bytes) of data? Assume "normal" eight-hour working days, and that one byte is required to store one keyboard character, and that you can type 180 characters per minute. Express your answer using two significant figures.
Solve the equations 1/2 mv^2 + 1/2 Iω^2 = mgh and v = rω for the speed v using substitution, given that I = mr^2 and h = 3.76 m. (Note that mass m and radius r will both cancel, so their numerical values aren't required.)
A farmer wants to fence off his four-sided plot of flat land. He measures three sides, shown as A, B, and D in the Figure, and then correctly calculates the length and orientation of the third side C. The length of A, B, and D are all 7.06 km. Their angles theta1, theta2, and theta3 are all 2.16 degrees. What did he find as the magnitude of C (in unit of km)?
Albert Einstein is pondering how to write his (soonto-be-famous) equation. He knows that energy E is a function of mass m and the speed of light c, but he doesn't know the functional relationship (E = m2c? E = mc4?). Pretend that Albert knows nothing about dimensional analysis, but since you are taking a fluid mechanics class, you help Albert come up with his equation. Use the step-by-step method of repeating variables to generate a dimensionless relationship between these parameters, showing all of your work. Compare this to Einstein's famous equation—does dimensional analysis give you the correct form of the equation?
this is the introductory question to our new chapter and my professor didn’t list any formulas to use for certain question types and i’m just really stuck on this one
Solve the ff. problems by providing a solution. Round-off your answer to the nearest hundredths (with 2 decimal places).
Please help solve the entire problem like please do not do it halfway. Please give me the entire solution am getting confuse when u do it bit by bit
