Find the rate at which it grows in nanometers per second. Because the distance between atoms in a molecule is on the order of 0.1 nm, your answer suggests how rapidly layers of atoms are assembled in this protein synthesis. nm/s Need Help?ReadIWarch Watch It -12 points SerPSE10 1.6.P.020 My Notes Ask Your Teacher How many significant figures are in the following numbers?

Explanation / Answer

here,

1 in = 0.0254 m = 0.0254 * 10^9 nm

1 day = 24 hours = 24 * 3600 s

the rate of growth of hair , R = 1/33 in per day

R = 1/33 * ( 0.254 * 10^9 /(24 * 3600)) nm/s

R = 89.1 nm/s

the rate of growth of hair is 89.1 nm/s
