The speed of light in space is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. The time for light from the sun to reach earth is 8mins and 20 seconds. Therefore, the distance from the Sun to Earth is

Select one:
A. 2.40 x 10^9 m
B. 8.64 x 10^12 m
C. 1.50 x 10^11
D. 2.25 x 10^9

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 1.50×10¹¹ m

Explanation:

First, convert the time to seconds.

8 min × (60 s/min) + 20 s = 500 s

Distance = speed × time

d = (3×10⁸ m/s) (500 s)

d = 1.50×10¹¹ m

Answer 2

The distance from the Sun to the Earth is 1.50 × 10¹¹. Speed is the distance travelled by an object in a particular time period. Thus, the correct option is C.

What is the Speed of light?

The speed of light in vacuum is commonly denoted by c. It is a universal physical constant. The speed of light (c) is exactly equal to 3.00 x 10⁸m/s (meter per second).

The speed of an object is the rate of change of position with respect to time. It is also defined as the distance covered by an object with respect to time. It can be calculated by dividing the distance travelled by an object by the time taken. It is a scalar quantity as it has only magnitude and no direction.

Speed = Distance / time

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 3.00 × 10⁸ × 500

Distance = 1500 × 10⁸

Distance =  1.50 × 10¹¹

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answer:

Answer c: "when particles in matter gain or lose energy , they change state"

Explanation:

As energy is provided to the molecules of the substance in question, they acquire more speed or vibration, increasing their separation in the substance, which can become then a liquid , or a gas. The reverse path also happens as the particles give away energy.

Answer:

c. when particles in matter gain or lose energy , they change state

Which of the following is the correct equation to calculate electrical energy? P = I/V V = P × I P = I × V E = P × t

Answers

You haven't told us what any of those letters represents.

I'm going to assume that ...

-- ' P ' = power

-- ' I ' = circuit current

-- ' V ' = circuit voltage

-- ' E ' = energy

-- ' t ' = time.

Now I'm ready to answer the question that I just invented.

P = I / V

V = P x I

Both of these are false statements, and can't be used to calculate anything.

P = I x V   is the correct equation to calculate electrical power.

Why might a researcher further classify the data in the chimpanzee dier table to include separate information of males and females ?

Answers

Answer:

In the data table, we can see the frequency distribution in the diet of a given type of chimpanzee.

Why a researcher further classify the data separating information of males and females?

Well, the objective of the researcher is to find information about these chimpanzees, so if he notices that the diet varies (even slightly) between males and females, separating the information between males and females would be useful to know how the diet varies, and why this happens.

This is the primary motive of why a researcher would want to separate the information of males and females.

A 50.5-turn circular coil of radius 4.75 cm can be oriented in any direction in a uniform magnetic field having a magnitude of 0.455 T. If the coil carries a current of 22.5 mA, find the magnitude of the maximum possible torque exerted on the coil.

Answers

Answer:

The maximum torque, τ = 3.67 × 10⁻³ Nm

Explanation:

The torque τ = NiABsinθ where N = number of turns of circular coil = 50.5, i = current in circular coil = 22.5 mA = 0.0225 A, A = area of circular coil = πr² where r = radius of circular coil = 4.75 cm = 0.0475 m, B = magnetic field strength = 0.455 T and θ = 90° for maximum torque.

So, τ = NiABsinθ

τ = Niπr²Bsinθ

τ = 50.5 × 0.0225 A × π × (0.0475 m)² × 0.455 T × sin90°

τ = 0.003665 Nm

τ = 3.665 × 10⁻³ Nm

τ ≅ 3.67 × 10⁻³ Nm

So the maximum torque, τ = 3.67 × 10⁻³ Nm

What is the mechanical advantage?

Mechanical advantage is defined as a measure of the ratio of output force to input force in a system, It is used to analyze the forces in simple machines like levers and pulleys.

Mechanical advantage = output force(load) /input force (effort)

mechanical advantage  = velocity ratio ×Efficiency

A lever that swings around a fixed point is the basic component of a lever. The pivot of a lever is its fixed point. A lever, like other machines, facilitates labor by adjusting the force or the length across which the force is applied to the device.

Explanation:

External locus of control is an attitude people possess that makes them attribute their failures or successes to factors other than themselves. The opposite of this type of attitude is the Internal locus of control where the individuals take responsibility for the outcomes of their actions whether good or bad. One good thing about the external locus of control is that when the individuals with this characteristic record successes, they attribute it to others and this presents them as people with team spirit. However, when they record failures, they do not want to take the blame, but rather attribute it to others.

Fred exhibits an external locus of control because he attributed his speeding to other factors like the road signs and GPS instead of fully admitting that it was his fault.

Which statement about the dark nebulae is true? Group of answer choices They can be penetrated only with longer wavelengths such as radio and infrared. They block the vast majority of radio waves from our Galaxy. Hydrogen and helium are the chief absorbing and scattering agents. They can be penetrated only with shorter waves, such as UV and x-ray. Only one is known to exist.

Answers

Answer:

They can be penetrated only with longer wavelengths such as radio and infrared.

Explanation:

A dark nebula can be defined as an interstellar cloud that is so dense as a result of high concentration of gas and dust and as such it obscures the visible wavelengths of light from stars behind it, thus appearing completely opaque (dark patch) in front of a bright emission nebula or in regions having  plenty stars.

Hence, dark nebulae can be penetrated only with longer wavelengths such as radio and infrared light because they cannot be absorbed by the dust layers or particles coated with frozen carbon monoxide and nitrogen residing in the dark nebulae.

A missile is moving 1350 m/s at a 25° angle it needs to hit a target 23,500 m away in a 55° direction in 10.2 seconds what is the magnitude of its final velocity

Answers

Answer:

3504 m/s

Explanation:

Let x be the horizontal component of distance

y - vertical component of distance

t-time

ax- horizontal component of acceleration

ay-Vertical component of acceleration

Vx-horizontal component of velocity

Vy-Vertical component of velocity

horizontally: x = V_x ×t + ½×a_x×t²  

plugging the values we get

23500× cos 55º = 1350×cos25.0º × 10.20 + ½×a_x× (10.20)²  

⇒ax = 19.2 m/s²  

Moreover,

V'x = V_x + a_x×t = 1350×cos25.0º + 19.2×10.20= 1419 m/s  

similarly in vertical direction:

y = V_y×t + ½×a_y×t²  

23500×sin55º = 1350×sin25.0º×10.20s + ½×a_y×(10.20)²  

⇒a_y = 258 m/s²  

Also,

V'y = V_y + a_y×t = 1350×sin25.0º + 258×10.20 = 3204 m/s  

Therefore

V = √(V'x² + V'y²) = 3504 m/s  

therefore,  magnitude of final velocity of missile=3504 m/s

Which two possible explanations does the video give for why white light changes into colored light? Color is an impurity added to white light by the prism. Color is present in the materials on which white light shines. White light contains seven colors, which are separated by the prism. White light reacts with chemicals in the air to produce seven colors.

Answers

Answer:

White light contains seven colors, which are separated by the prism.

White light reacts with chemicals in the air to produce seven colors.

Explanation:

It was first observed by Sir Issac Newton, that when white light is passed through a prism, an elongated, coloured patch of light is obtained on a screen placed behind the prism. The seven colours obtained constitute the spectrum of white light.

In nature, white light is separated into its constituent wavelengths when white light interacts with substances in the atmosphere.

The correct answer is “color is an impurity added to white light by the prism.”
