Not sure what your question means but the nearest star is Alpha Centauri which is about 4.2 light years (ly) away.  This is roughly 4x10¹³ km away.  A billion is 10⁹ so this is 4x10⁴ larger than a billion.  I'd say the last one then...

5. No matter what month and date your birthday is on, NASA says it has a significant picture from
padilas [110]

Answer:

The Hubble space telescope.

Explanation:

Hubble is a telescope that observers the sky 24/7 non-stop, which means that for every day of the year it would have made a significant discovery, which of course includes your birthday. Furthermore, you can actually go to NASA website and find out what discovery was made on your birthday! This shows both the vastness of the universe <em>(it really has to be huge for a telescope to have a discovery for each day of the year!) </em> and the ceaseless work of the telescope!

Answer:

You are asked to design a cylindrical steel rod 50.0 cm long, with a circular cross section, that will conduct 170.0 J/s from a furnace at 350.0 ∘C to a container of boiling water under 1 atmosphere.

Explanation:

Given Values:

L = 50 cm = 0.5 m

H = 170 j/s

To find the diameter of the rod, we have to find the area of the rod using the following formula.

Here Tc = 100.0° C

        k  = 50.2

       H = k × A × \frac{[T_{H -}T_{C} ] }{L}

Solving for A

       A  =  \frac{H * L }{k * [ T_{H}- T_{C} ] }

       A  = \frac{170 * 0.5}{50.2 * [ 350 - 100 ]}

       A  = \frac{85}{12550} = 6.77 ×10^{-3} m²

Now Area of cylinder is :

     A =  \frac{\pi }{4} d²

solving for d:

    d =  \sqrt{\frac{4 * 0.00677 }{\pi } }

    d  = 9.28 cm

dangina [55]

Answer:

Gravity

Explanation:

The Hubble is continually attracted to the earth due to the action of gravity. Therefore, it is thanks to gravity that the space telescope is kept in orbit. Without him, the direct motion generated by inertia would take him out of course. Gravity slows it down and keeps it in the curved path of its orbit around the Earth.
