A star is located 5.9 light years from Earth.
We know that : 1 light year = 9.46 trillion kilometers.
We will calculate the distance in trillion kilometers multiplying the number of light years by 9.46:
5.9 * 9.46 = 55.814
Answer: The distance is 55.814 trillion km.
Answer: Because of the different wave speed from light and sound. Explanation: There is a major difference between the speed wave of light and sound, light travels at 186, 282 miles per second, and sound can travel at different speeds and its significantly slower so it is easier to measure it
Explanation:
The frictional force is directly proportional to the force that is perpendicular on the surface.
When the body is placed on a horizontal level with zero inclination, the only force acting on the body is the gravitational force which always pulls the body down. The gravitational force, in this case, is the perpendicular force to the surface. Accordingly, this entire force is used to generate friction
Now as the inclination of the surface increases, the gravitational force is no longer the perpendicular force of the body, its value decreases, which means only a part is used to generate frictional force. Consequently, frictional force decreases.
When the inclination reaches 90 degrees, the gravitational force does not act along the normal and accordingly, no friction force is generated.
Answer:
3141N or 3.1 ×10³N to 2 significant figures. The can experiences this inward force on its outer surface.
Explanation:
The atmospheric pressure acts on the outer surface of the can. In order to calculate this inward force we need to know the total surface area of the can available to the air outside the can. Since the can is a cylinder with a total surface area given by 2πrh + 2πr² =
A = 2πr(r + h)
Where h = height of the can = 12cm
r = radius of the can = 6.5cm/2 = 3.25cm
r = diameter /2
A = 2π×3.25 ×(3.25 + 12) = 311.4cm² = 311.4 ×10-⁴ = 0.031m²
Atmospheric pressure, P = 101325Pa = 101325 N/m²
F = P × A
F = 101325 ×0.031.
F = 3141N. Or 3.1 ×10³ N.
