Light year is the distance traveled by light in 1 year of time interval

so here we can say that the statement must have used the word light year as the distance

so we have

A) It's about 4 light-years from here to Alpha Century.

this shows the distance between two so it is correct

B) It will take me light-years to complete this homework assignment.

here it represent the light year as time so it is INCORRECT

C) A light-year is about 10 trillion kilometers.

This shows the distance so it is correct

D) It will take the Voyager spacecraft about 20,000 years to travel just 1 light-year.

It shows the distance so it is correct

E) The Milky Way Galaxy is about 100,000 light-years in diameter.

this is distance so it is also correct

What is the colour of a shirt which has blue and white stripes when put under yellow light? Explain.​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Black and yellow strips.

Explanation:

Color of shirt is blue and white stripes

When the shirt is seen in the yellow light, the blue color do not reflect any color so it appears black and the white color reflects the yellow light so it appears yellow.

Thus, the color of shirt is blue appears black and white appears yellow.

A 1000 N object is pulled along a level surface with a horizontal force of 200 N. The object moves with a constant velocity of 2
krek1111 [17]

0.2 is the value of coefficient of friction (k)

F=kN

F=horizontal force

n=Normal Force

k=coefficient of friction

k=F/N

k=200/1000

k=0.2

The ratio of the normal force pushing two surfaces together to the frictional force preventing motion between them is known as the friction coefficient. Usually, the Greek letter mu is used to indicate it .N is the normal force, and F is the frictional force, hence F = N/N.

Due to the fact that both F and N are measured in units of force, the coefficient of friction has no dimensions (such as newtons or pounds). The coefficient of friction can have a variety of values for both static and dynamic friction. Static friction occurs when an object encounters friction that resists any applied force, keeping the object at rest until the static frictional force is released. In kinetic friction, the frictional force resists the motion of the object.

Suppose that a car traveling to the west (-x direction) begins to slow down as it approaches a traffic light. Make a statement c
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The car is decelerating and its acceleration is negative.

Explanation:

First thing to consider. The car traveling direction is not important to answer the question.

Second, there are two affirmations on each sentence. So, lets take definitions:

Deceleration: Reducing the acceleration, from one value to another. No matter if the acceleration for the moment is positive or negative.

Acceleration negative: the driver is applying a force to make speed=0, the sign of this force must negative in order for the car to stop, other way it will go faster. Acceleration is the change rate of speed, if the speed is going down, the total acceleration until cars stops must be negative.
