In one scene in the movie the godfather ii,
a solid gold phone is passed around a large
table for everyone to see. suppose the volume
of gold in the phone were equal to the volume
of a 10-centimeter cube of gold. the density
of gold is 19,300 kg/m3
.
could such a phone be casually passed
around a table from hand to hand? what
is the weight of the phone? 1 kg of mass is
about 2.2 lb

What were the success and failures that came to boyle’s excitements?

Determine the mass of fuel required for the expected energy consumption in the united states for the next ten years. energy use per person per year in the united states = 3.5 x 1011joules base calculations on current population of 310,000,000.

Dying the folding patterns of protein molecules can microbiologists better understand cellular processes as well as some diseases, such as alzheimer’s, that are caused by proteins that have misfolded. the folding of these complicated molecules can be simulated on computers, but it takes a lot of processor power and time for even expensive supercomputers to do this. a group of researchers at stanford university developed software that can be used to distribute the processing of data to anyone who is willing to donate time on their idle personal computers. as a result, the researchers have been able to achieve protein-folding simulations that are far better than those other computing methods have done. which statement best describes the work of these researchers? the work is not scientific because the data are not processed in one location. the work is not scientific because the simulations are not reproducible. the researchers applied creativity to solve a problem in running an experiment. the researchers used only well-established scientific techniques.
