The star Betelgeuse is 6.1 x 10^18 m away from Earth. How old is the light we see from that star when it reaches us? There are 3

Answer:

635 years old

Explanation:

The light reaching the earth from the sun will travel at a speed called the speed of light, and this has a universal value of 3 × 10⁸ m/s. Bearing this in mind, let us calculate the age of the light reaching the Earth from the sun:

Distance of star from Earth = 6.1 × 10⁸m

Speed of light = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

We have distance and speed, let us calculate the time of travel of the light from the star to the earth.

Distance = speed × time

6.1 × 10⁸ = 3 × 10⁸ × time

$time = \frac{6.1 \times 10^{18}}{3 \times 10^8}$

In order to do the division above, we will divide the whole numbers normally, then we will apply the law of indices to the power that says:

Xᵃ ÷ Xᵇ = X⁽ᵃ⁻ᵇ⁾

$\therefore time = \frac{6.1 \times 10^{18}}{3 \times 10^8}\\= \frac{2.03 \times 10^{(18-8)}}{1} \\= 2.03 \times 10^{10}}\ seconds$

Next, we are told that there are 3.2 × 10⁷ seconds in a year.

∴ The number of years travelled by the light from the star:

$3.2\ \times 10^7\ seconds = 1\ year\\1\ second = \frac{1}{3.2\ \times 10^7} \\\therefore 2.03 \times 10^{10}\ seconds = \frac{2.03 \times 10^{10}}{3.2\ \times 10^7}$

please note that:

2.03 × 10¹⁰ = 20300000000

3.2 × 10⁷ = 32000000

$\therefore \frac{2.03 \times 10^{10}}{3.2\ \times 10^7}\\= \frac{20300000000}{32000000} \\\\= \frac{20300}{32} \\= 634.347\ years\\$

The closest answer in the option is 635 years, and we are short of this by some points due probably to approximations in the calculation.

A student weighing 700 N climbs at constant speed to the top of an 8 m vertical rope in 10 s. The average power expended by the

stich3 [128]

Answer:

3. 560W

Explanation:

First we calculate the work required for the 700N weigh student to climb up by 8 meters. Work is force times distance

W = Fs = 700 * 8 = 5600J

The average power is defined as the rate of energy expended over a unit of time. In order words, work divided by time duration

P = W/t = 5600 / 10 = 560 W
