How many seconds will light leaving Los Angeles take to reach the following locations (a) San Francisco (about 500km), (b) Londo

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

a) It takes 0.0017s for the light to reach San Francisco.

b) It takes 0.033s for the light to reach London.

c) It takes 1.334s for the light to reach Mars.

d) It takes 149.7s for the light to reach Venus.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can solve this problem by using this following formula:

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

In which s is the speed(in km/s), d is the distance(in km) and t is the time(in s).

The light speed is 299 792 458 m / s = 299,792.458 km/s, so $s = 299,792.458$

(a) San Francisco (about 500km)

Find t when $d = 500$ . So

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$299,792.458 = \frac{500}{t}$

$299,792.458t = 500$

$t = \frac{500}{299,792.458}$

$t = 0.0017s$

It takes 0.0017s for the light to reach San Francisco.

b) London(about 10,000km)

Find t when $d = 10,000$ . So

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$299,792.458 = \frac{10,000}{t}$

$299,792.458t = 10,000$

$t = \frac{10,000}{299,792.458}$

$t = 0.033s$

It takes 0.033s for the light to reach London.

(c) the Moon (400,000km)

Find t when $d = 400,000$ . So

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$299,792.458 = \frac{400,000}{t}$

$299,792.458t = 400,000$

$t = \frac{400,000}{299,792.458}$

$t = 1.334s$

It takes 1.334s for the light to reach Mars.

(d) Venus (0.3 A.U. from Earth at its closest approach).

Each A.U. has 149,59,7871 km.

So 0.3 A.U. = 0.3*(149,597,871) = 44,879,361.3. This means that $d = 44,879,361.3$ . So:

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

$299,792.458 = \frac{44,879,361.3}{t}$

$299,792.458t = 44,879,361.3$

$t = \frac{44,879,361.3}{299,792.458}$

$t = 149.7s$

It takes 149.7s for the light to reach Venus.

A company is creating a box without a top from a piece of cardboard, but cutting out square corners with side length x.

Volgvan

Answer: Choice B) The expression (10-2x)(30-2x)x represents the volume of the box

----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------

The original width is 10 inches. The width reduces to 10-2x inches after we cut off the top two corners of the rectangle. We can think of it as taking 10 and subtracting off two copies of x like so: 10-x-x = 10-2x

Similarly, the length goes from 30 inches to 30-2x inches. This time we're taking off the top and bottom corners (focus on either side it doesn't matter).

The height of the box is x inches due to this portion being folded up.

Volume of box = (width)*(length)*(height)
Volume of box = (10-2x)(30-2x)x

Note: the units for the answer are in cubic inches which can be written as "in^3" (inches cubed).
