If light travels 290,000,000 meters in 1 second, simply divide 1 second by 290,000,000 to find the time it takes to travel 1 meter.

1 / 290,000,000 = 0.000000003448 seconds (<em>or 3.5 nano seconds</em>)

andrezito [222]

Question:

Consider a sample of helium gas in a container fitted with a piston as pictured below. The piston is frictionless, but has a mass of 10.0 kg. How many of the following processes will cause the piston to move away from the base and decrease the pressure of the gas? Assume ideal behavior.

I. Heating the helium. II.

II. toRemoving some of the helium from the container.

III. Turning the container on its side.

IV. Decreasing the pressure outside the container.

a) 0

b) 1

c) 2

d) 3

e) 4

Answer:

Only one process will cause the piston to move which is

i) Heating the helium

Explanation:

When helium is heated it becomes less dense or lighter. Heating the helium will cause an increase in volume which will make the piston to move away from the base. When the volume finishes increasing, the piston will stop moving which in turn will make the forces on both sides of the piston balanced, so the pressure inside will balance the weight of the piston and that of the atmosphere. From that we can see that there has been a pressure change as a result of heating.

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The gravity arrow for each body rotates, always pointing toward the other body. Both arrows grow longer when the bodies come closer to one another and shorter when they move farther apart. This change shows that the gravitational force is stronger the closer together the bodies are.
