Question:

A spaceship enters the solar system moving toward the Sun at a constant speed relative to the Sun. By its own clock, the time elapsed between the time it crosses the orbit of Jupiter and the time it crosses the orbit of Mars is 35.0 minutes

How fast is the spaceship traveling towards the Sun? The radius of the orbit of Jupiter is 43.2 light-minutes, and that of the orbit of Mars is 12.6 light-minutes.

Answer:

S = 5.508 × 10¹¹m

V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

The radius of the orbit of Jupiter, Rj is 43.2 light-minutes

radius of the orbit of Mars, Rm is 12.6 light-minutes

Distance travelled S = (Rj - Rm)

= 43.2 - 12.6 = 30.6 light- minutes

= 30.6 × (3 ×10⁸m/s) × 60 s

= 5.508 × 10¹¹m

time = 35mins = (35 × 60 secs)

= 2100 secs

speed = distance/time

V = 5.508 × 10¹¹m / 2100 s

V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s

If the angle of incidence of a light source to a shiny surface is 30 degrees, what will the angle
Virty [35]
<h3>Answer: D) 30</h3>

Angle of incidence always equals angle of reflection. Think of a tennis ball being hit into a wall. The ball will bounce off at the same angle that it approached with. The angles mentioned are formed through the line called the "normal", which is the line perpendicular to the surface.

If two connected points objects pass through the same set of three points, the shapes created by each will be identical, regardl
NeX [460]

Answer:

This is false

Explanation:

This is why the answer to this question is false. If these types of objects (2 points connected) should pass through same sets of 3 points, irrespective of the order that each object was plotted, we will not get identical shapes created.

The shape that is going to be created will be dependent on the pattern/order that was involved in the plotting. If it was identical, then we will have identical shapes. But if the order during plotting is different then we will have different shapes created.

Thank you!

Speed=100m/sec<br> Frequency=10 Hz<br> Wavelength=?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Wavelength = 10 m

Explanation:

Given:

Speed = 100 ms^{-1}

Frequency = 10 Hz = 10 s^{-1}

To find : Wavelength = ?

We know that the relationship between wavelength λ, frequency f and speed v is given by the equation

    v = fλ

Therefore wavelength λ = v/f

                                        = 100 ms^{-1} / 10 ms^{-1}

                                        = 10 m

Hence wavelength = 10 m
