It would be faster for you to travel from planet to planet within a solar system because they are closer than a star to a different star, and are closer than a galaxy to another galaxy within the universe.

If you chose the same speed unit for all the same options such as the speed of light or sound:

then indeed planet to planet would be the closest.

It depends on how far away the planet is.

Light from the Sun takes eight minutes to get to Earth
But takes 5.3 hours to get to Pluto.

So Earth to say Neptune, would take about 4 hours at the speed of light.

Final Answer: Planet to Planet within a Solar System

One particular descent goes from 2100m to 1600m. Assuming work done against friction is 90% of the potential energy change of th
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

1/2 M V^2 = .1 M g H       where 10% of PE goes into KE

V^2 = .2 g H = .2 * 9.8 * (2100 - 1600) = 980 m^2 / s^2

V = 31.1 m/s       increase in speed during descent

1 km / hr = 1000 m / 3600 sec = .278 m/s

V = 31.1 m/s / (.278 m/s / km /hr)= 112 km/hr

Which statements describe kinetic and potential energy? Check all that apply.
Maru [420]

Answer:

First option, third option, fourth option, and the fifth option.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy an object has when it's motion, the greater the speed the greater the kinetic energy. For example, a car moving and increasing in speed is kinetic energy since the object is in motion. If the car stops and parks in a parking lot that is potential energy. Potential energy is the amount of energy an object has when it's at rest or not in motion.

So, the answer for this question is as followed first option or "energy can be stored in the position of an object." Third option or "Energy can be stored in the position of the particles that make up a substance." Fourth option or "Energy exists as movement of the particles of a substance." The last answer will be the fifth option or "Energy is greater in faster-moving particles than in slower-moving particles."

Hope this helps.

A certain pendulum with a 1.00 kg bob has a period of 3.50 s. What will happen to the period of the pendulum if the 1.00 kg bob
Serggg [28]

Answer:

The period will be doublef because increasing the mass increases the period linearly.

Explanation:

A stiffer spring with a constant mass decreases the period of oscillation. Increasing the mass increases the period of oscillation
