Conversations with astronauts on the lunar surface were characterized by a kind of echo in which the earthbound person’s voice w

as so loud in the astronaut’s space helmet that it was picked up by the astronaut’s microphone and transmitted back to Earth. It is reasonable to assume that the echo time equals the time necessary for the radio wave to travel from the Earth to the Moon and back (that is, neglecting any time delays in the electronic equipment). Calculate the distance from Earth to the Moon given that the echo time was 2.56 s and that radio waves travel at the speed of light (3.00×108 m/s) .

Answer:

3.85*10^8m

Explanation:

We know that

Speed v = distance/time t

So distance = v x t

So = 3*10^8 x 2.56s

= distatance = 7.7*10^8m

However this is double the distance from the earth to the moon, so to get distance from earth to the moon we divide by 2

7.7*10^8/2= 3.85*10^8m

i throw a tennis ball straight down from the roof of a building 400 meters tall.id it leaves my hand at 10 m/s, how fast will it
Sidana [21]

consider the motion of the tennis ball in downward direction

Y = vertical displacement = 400 m

a = acceleration = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

v₀ = initial velocity of the ball at the top of building = 10 m/s

v = final velocity of the ball when it hits the ground = ?

using the kinematics equation

v² = v²₀ + 2 a Y

inserting the values

v² = 10² + 2 (9.8) (400)

v = 89.11 m/s

Permanent magnet. An induced magnet would be created when a piece of iron (for example) is in contact with a magnet. Temporary magnets would be something like an electromagnet. Bar magnets are permanently magnetic unless we heat them or hammer them to cause their domains to loose alignment.
