Answer:

B. 5.9 X 10^9

Explanation:

For this question, we assume the following:

•2.3 x 1014 inches is actually 2.3 x 10^14 inches.

•3.9 x 104inches is actually 3.9 x 10^4inches

We now calculate thus;

The average distance in km would be 2.3 x 10^14/3.9 x 10^4

= 0.59 X 10^10.

Therefore, we have;

5.9 X 10^9km.

An alternating current is set up in an LRC circuit.
Andreyy89

Answer:

(B) Resistor only

Explanation:

Alternating Current: These are currents that changes periodically with time.

An LRC  Ac circuit is an AC circuit that contains a Resistor, a capacitor and an inductor, connected in series.

In a purely resistive circuit, current and voltage are in phase.

In a purely capacitive circuit, the current leads  the voltage by π/2

In a purely inductive circuit, the current lags the voltage by π/2.

Therefore when a alternating current is set up in LRC circuit, in the resistor, the current and the voltage are in phase.

The right option is (B) Resistor only.

When the leveling bulb is higher than the water level, the pressure in the system is greater than atmospheric pressure.
malfutka [58]

When the leveling bulb is higher than the water level, the pressure in the system is greater than atmospheric pressure. This statement is true.

In the physical sciences, pressure is defined as the stress at a point within a confined fluid or the perpendicular force per unit area. A 42-pound box with a bottom area of 84 square inches will impose pressure on a surface equal to the force divided by the area it is applied to, or half a pound per square inch.

Atmospheric pressure, which is roughly 15 pounds per square inch at sea level, is the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on each unit area of the Earth's surface. Pascals are used to express pressure in SI units; one pascal is equivalent to one newton per square meter. Almost 100,000 pascals of atmospheric pressure are present.

A particular light source gives off light waves with a measured wavelength of
Umnica [9.8K]

The frequency of the light source is 1.5 x 10¹⁵ Hz.

<h3>Frequency of the light source</h3>

The frequency of the light source is determined using the following equations;

c = fλ

where;

c is speed of light

f is the frequency

λ is the wavelength

f = (3 x 10⁸) / (2 x 10⁻⁷)

f = 1.5 x 10¹⁵ Hz

Thus, the frequency of the light source is 1.5 x 10¹⁵ Hz.

8. When a 100 N bag of nails hangs motionless from a single vertical strand of rope, how many newtons of tension are exerted in
Svetllana [295]

If the bag is motionless, then it's not accelerating up or down.
That fact right there tells you that the net vertical force on it
is zero.  So the sum of any upward forces on it is exactly equal
to the downward gravitational force ... the bag's "weight".

If the bag is suspended from a single rope, then the tension
in the rope must be equal to the 100-N weight of the bag.

And if there are four ropes holding it up, then the sum of
the four tensions is 100N.  If the ropes have been carefully
adjusted to share the load equally, then the tension is 25N
in each rope.
