- Assume your hair grows at a rate of 1/44th of an inch per day. How fast is that in nm/s (nanometers per second)? Given that a typical atom is on the order of 1 x 10^(-10) m in diameter (see Table 1.3 on page 18 of the textbook), at approximately what rate does the protein synthesis that assembles your hair strands deposit atoms in units of atoms per second? I need the second question to be rounded to 1 significant digit.arrow_forwardIn SI units, speeds are measured in meters per second (m/s). But, depending on where you live, you’re probably more comfortable of thinking of speeds in terms of either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mi/h). In this problem, you will see that 1 m/s is roughly 4 km/h or 2 mi/h, which is handy to use when developing your physical intuition. More precisely, show that (a) 1.0 m/s = 3.6 km/h and (b) 1.0 m/s = 2.2 mi/h.arrow_forwardIn physics labs, explain why we insist on getting our final results from the slope of a graph, rather than simply averaging a list of values.
