The speed of light in a vaccum is 182,282 miles per second. Light travels through space over a period of time to reach the earth. When a new star becomes visible it means that a star's light has finnaly reached us. It takes the sun's light an average of 8 minutes and 20 seconds to reach earth. Hope this helps.

I think this is the best way to explain it
light from the sun takes 8 minutes and 20 seconds to travel to Earth. So it would be the same if the Earth's light to travel to the sun. The sun is described to be a star.

A 1.8-kg object is attached to a spring and placed on frictionless, horizontal surface. A force of 40 N stretches a spring 20 cm
Sergio [31]

Answer:

a) k = 200 N/m

b) E = 4 J

c) Δx = 6.3 cm

Explanation:

a)

  • In order to find force constant of the spring, k, we can use the the Hooke's Law, which reads as follows:

       F = - k * \Delta x (1)

  • where F = 40 N and Δx =- 0.2 m (since the force opposes to the displacement from the equilibrium position, we say that it's a restoring force).
  • Solving for k:

       k =- \frac{F}{\Delta x} =-\frac{40 N}{-0.2m} = 200 N/m (2)

b)

  • Assuming no friction present, total mechanical energy mus keep constant.
  • When the spring is stretched, all the energy is elastic potential, and can be expressed as follows:

        U = \frac{1}{2}* k* (\Delta x)^{2} (3)

  • Replacing k and Δx by their values, we get:

       U = \frac{1}{2}* k* (\Delta x)^{2} = \frac{1}{2}* 200 N/m* (0.2m)^{2} = 4 J (4)

c)

  • When the object is oscillating, at any time, its energy will be part elastic potential, and part kinetic energy.
  • We know that due to the conservation of energy, this sum will be equal to the total energy that we found in b).
  • So, we can write the following expression:

        \frac{1}{2}* k* \Delta x_{1} ^{2} + \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2}  = \frac{1}{2}*k*\Delta x^{2}   (5)

  • Replacing the right side of (5) with (4), k, m, and v by the givens, and simplifying, we can solve for Δx₁, as follows:

        \frac{1}{2}* 200N/m* \Delta x_{1} ^{2} + \frac{1}{2} * 1.8kg* (-2.0m/s)^{2}  = 4J   (6)

⇒      \frac{1}{2}* 200N/m* \Delta x_{1} ^{2}   = 4J  - 3.6 J = 0.4 J (7)

⇒     \Delta x_{1}   = \sqrt{\frac{0.8J}{200N/m} } = 6.3 cm (8)

a projectile is shot horizontally from the edge of a cliff, 230m above the ground. the projectile lands 300m from base of the cl
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

The time taken by the projectile to hit the ground is 6.85 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Vertical height of cliff = 230 m

Distance = 300 m

Suppose, determine the time taken by the projectile to hit the ground.

We need to calculate the time

Using second equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Where, s = vertical height of cliff

u = initial vertical velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value in the equation

230=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times t^2

t=\sqrt{\dfrac{230\times2}{9.8}}

t=6.85 sec

Hence, The time taken by the projectile to hit the ground is 6.85 sec.

malfutka [58]

From the information given,

diameter of ornament = 8

radius = diameter/2 = 8/2

radius of curvature, r = 4

Recall,

focal length, f = radius of curvature/2 = 4/2

f = 2

Recall,

magnification = image d
