What do miles, kilometers, and light-years have in common?<br><br>​
Radda [10]

They are all units of measure of length

Explanation:

Length is a scalar quantity representing a distance between two points, and it can be expressed in different units.

The SI units of the length is the metre (m), which is defined as the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second.

A unit which is common used is a multiple of the meter, the kilometre (km) which corresponds to 1000 metres:

1 km = 1000 m

Another unit used in the UK system is the mile (mi), where the conversion factor between miles and metres is

1 mi = 1609.34 m

Finally, these units are not suitable to be used to measure astronomical distances - such as those between stars and galaxies. For this, another unit is used, which is the light-year (ly), which corresponds to the distance travelled by the light in a vacuum in one year, and its conversion factor to the metre is:

1 ly = 9.46\cdot 10^{15}ly

A motorcycle accelerates from a stop at a rate of 4m/s 2 for 20 seconds. It then continues at a
8_murik_8 [283]

After 20 s, the motorcycle attains a speed of

\left(4\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(20\,\mathrm s)=80\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

and it continues at this speed for the next 40 s. So at 45 s, its speed is 80 m/s.

the density of atmosphere (measured in kilograms/meter3) on a certain planet is found to decrease as altitude increases (as meas
statuscvo [17]
The type of relationship between atmospheric density and altitude is therefore inverse relationship. This means an increase in either will decrease the other factor. Density is mass per unit volume, it is difficult to calculate with only altitude 1,291 kilometers given. Else, we could also use temperature and pressure to solve density but they are not provided.

Which formula can be used to find the tangential speed of an orbiting object?
netineya [11]
The formula used for finding the tangential speed (speed of something that is moving in a circular path) of an orbiting object is:
V₍t₎ = ωr
V₍t₎ = tangential speed or velocity
ω = angular velocity
r = radius of the circular path
if time taken t is only given then use this formula to calculate the tangential speed:
 V₍t₎ = 2πr/t,     t is time taken
