The moon is 384,403 km from the earth how many quarters laid end to end it would take to reach the moon if a quarter has a diame

ter of 2.3 cm
Physics

Answer:

Distance from the moon= dm= 384,403km

A quarter diameter= dq= 2.3 cm= 0.000023km

No of quarters= 16,713,173, 913

To convert cm into km divide cm by 100 and then by 1000

as

1m= 100cm

1km= 1000m

Therefore

2.3/100= 0.023 m

And

0.023/1000= 0.000023 km

Dividing the distance from the moon by the diameter of the quarter laid end to end would give the number of the quarters needed.

No. of quarters= Distance from the moon/ Diameter of the quarter

                             = 384,403km/0.000023 km

                             =       16,713,173,913.043

Rounding  16,713,173,913.043 gives 16,713,173,913 quarters

The reflective surface of a CD consists of spirals of equally spaced grooves. If you shine a laser pointer on a CD, each groove
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

d = 1.55 * 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

To calculate the distance between the adjacent grooves of the CD, use the formula, d = \frac{m \lambda}{sin(A_{m}) }..........(1)

The fringe number, m = 1 since it is a first order maximum

The wavelength of the green laser pointer, \lambda = 532 nm = 532 * 10⁻⁹ m

Distance between the central maximum and the first order maximum = 1.1 m

Distance between the screen and the CD = 3 m

A_{m} = Angle between the incident light and the diffracted light

From the setup shown in the attachment, it is a right angled triangle in which

sin(A_{m}) = \frac{opposite}{Hypotenuse} \\sin(A_{m}) =\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1.1^{2}+3^{2}}}

sin(A_{m} ) = 0.344\\A_{m} = sin^{-1} 0.344\\A_{m} = 20.14^{0}

Putting all appropriate values into equation (1)

d = \frac{1* 532*10^{-9} }{0.344 }\\d = 0.00000155 m\\d = 1.55 * 10^{-6} m

Wind resistance _____ as speed increases.
Rudik [331]

The correct option is option B that wind resistance increases dramatically.

Explanation:

When the speed of an object increases resistance increases drastically because the object pushing through air has obtained a high speed but the air is unable to move out of the way so fast so show it tends to get compressed and oppose the moving object and the object names to put more pressure because some of the pressure goes into cutting air and moving through it.

What qualifications do you need to be a research scientist?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The qualifications boil down to: College education.

In most university or industrial research organizations, you might be able to work there as a member of the team who doesn't get much pay or much respect, with research going on all around you directed by other people, after you've gotten you Master's degree.

But you really don't have a shot at leading anything, or having much to say about what's being researched or how, until you have a PhD degree in the field where you'd like to do the research.

(Did I mention how proud I was to be present about 6 weeks ago, in a land far away, when my daughter was awarded a PhD degree in Molecular Biology ? I didn't want to let you get away without hearing about that.)

An Olympian swims at a rate of 10.8 Km/h. How far will he travel after 0.3 hours?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

C. 3.2km

Explanation:

Seeing as the swimmer travels 10.8 km in an hour, and they are asking you to find how far they have traveled after 0.3 hours, multiply 10.8 km/h by 0.3 h. The h's will cancel and you are left with 3.24km, which can be rounded to 3.2km. Hope this helps! :)

vredina [299]

Answer:

d=\frac{e^{2}*f*g*h*i }{a}

Explanation:

Multiply right stide by "EFG", left side will be only ABCD. Then devide right side by "ABC", leaving left side as  just D. Cancel out numbers both in numerator and denominator of right
