I guess the problem is asking for the distance between Earth and Mars in Astronomical Units (AU).

Since 1 AU = 1.5 \cdot 10^8 km
and the distance between the two planets is
d=225 mil. km= 2.25 \cdot 10^8 km
we can convert this distance into AU by using the following proportion:
1 AU : 1.5 \cdot 10^8 km = x : 2.25 \cdot 10^8 km

from which we find
x= \frac{1 AU \cdot 2.25 \cdot 10^8 km}{1.5 \cdot 10^8 km} =1.5 AU

AU = 1.5 × 108  yes that is correct.

If a circuit contains a 12v battery and two 3 bulbs in series
Paha777 [63]

If the resistance of each bulb is 3 ohms, and they are connected across the battery, then current will flow through them.

In series, the two 3-ohm bulbs will look like a single 6-ohm resistance.

      Current = (voltage) / (resistance)  =  (12v) / (6 ohms) = 2 Amperes.

The battery will need to deliver some power to the circuit.

       Power = (voltage) x (current) = (12v) x (2 Amperes)  =  24 watts .

Each bulb will dissipate 12 watts, in the form of light and heat.

The distance between a charge and the source of an electric field changes from 3 mm to 6 mm. as a result of the change, the elec
STatiana [176]

The electric potential energy of the charge is reduced because it decreases with increase in the distance between charges.

<h3>What is electric potential energy?</h3>

Electric potential energy can be defined as the energy needed to move a charge against an electric field.

It is calculated using the formula;

U = Kq1 q2 ÷ r

Where Q = electric potential energy

k = Coulombs constant

q1 and q2 = charges

r = distance of separation

Electric potential energy is inversely proportional to the distance of separation of the charges.

If the distance of the charges changes from 3mm to 6mm, then the electric potential energy of the charges is reduced because it decreases with increase in the distance of the charges.

Therefore, the electric potential energy of the charge is reduced because it decreases with increase in the distance between charges.

suppose a scientific team is trying to recreate the energy producing reactions that occur in the sun. what would they need for t
valentina_108 [34]

For energy producing reactions they need Hydrogen atoms, heat, and pressure for the experiments.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The initial step of the Hydrogen combination process: a core of Deuterium (2H) is shaped from two protons with the discharge of an antielectron and a neutrino. In the fundamental Hydrogen combination cycle, four Hydrogen cores (protons) meet up to make a Helium core.

An atomic combination response is characterized as the response wherein at least two lighter cores consolidate together to shape heavier cores with the arrival of high measures of vitality.

Combination can possibly give the sort of baseload vitality expected to give power to our urban communities and our enterprises. Maintainability: Fusion powers are generally accessible and almost limitless.
