The motion of the light is a uniform motion with constant speed v=3 \cdot 10^5 km/s, therefore we can use the basic relationship between speed, space and time:
v= \frac{S}{t} (1)
where S is the distance covered and t is the time taken. The light takes t=1.3 s to travel from the moon to Earth, therefore by rearranging eq.(1) we can find the distance between the Moon and the Earth:
S=vt=(3 \cdot 10^5 km/s)(1.3 s)=390000 km=3.9 \cdot 10^5 km

Ann [662]

Answer:

   θ = 4.78º

with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the east - north

Explanation:

This is a velocity compound exercise since it is a vector quantity.

The plane takes a direction, the air blows to the west and the result must be to the north, let's use the Pythagorean theorem to find the speed

                  v_fly² = v_nort² + v_air²

                  v_nort² = v_fly² + - v_air²

Let's use trigonometry to find the direction of the plane

        sin θ = v_air / v_fly

        θ = sin⁻¹ (v_air / v_fly)

         

let's calculate

        θ = sin⁻¹ (10/120)

         θ = 4.78º

with respect to the vertical or 4.78 to the north-east
