distance to the star Betelgeuse: 640 ly

As we know that

1 ly = 63000 AU

also we know that

1AU = 1.5 \times 10^8 km

1 ly = 63000 (1.5 \times 10^8) = 9.45 \times 10^{12} km

So the distance of Betelgeuse = 640 ly

d_1 = 640 \times 9.45 \times 10^{12} = 6.05 \times 10^{15} m

distance to the star VY Canis Majoris: 3.09 × 10^8 AU

d_2 = 3.09\times 10^8 \times 1.5 \times 10^8 km

d_2 = 4.64 \times 10^{16} km

distance to the galaxy Large Magellanic Cloud: 49976 pc

1 pc = 3.262 ly = 3.262 \times 9.45 \times 10^{12} km

1pc = 3.08 \times 10^{13} km

now we have

d_3 = 49976 \times 3.08 \times 10^{13}

d_3 = 1.54 \times 10^{18} km

distance to Neptune at the farthest: 4.7 billion km

d_4 = 4.7 \times 10^9 km

now the order of distance from least to greatest is as following

1. distance to Neptune at the farthest

2. distance of Betelgeuse

3. distance to the star VY Canis Majoris

4. distance to the galaxy Large Magellanic Cloud

Water is completely filling black metallic vessel having cubic form and thin walls. The mass of water is 1 kg and initial temper
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Check the attached image

Explanation:

To solve the problem for time you will have to use the formula for time, t = d/s which means time equals distance divided by speed.

Kindly check the attached image below for the step by step explanation to the question.

An electromagnetic wave has a wavelength of 1.3m what is the frequency of wave
larisa86 [58]
V = f * wavelength
as we know electromagnetic wave has speed equal to light, so

3 * 10^8 = f * 1.3
f = 2.3 * 10^8 hertz
f = 230 mega hertz

An asteroid is moving along a straight line. A force acts along the displacement of the asteroid and slows it down. The asteroid
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

a)

- 7.04\times10^{11} J

b)

5.03\times10^{5} N

Explanation:

a)

m = mass of the asteroid = 43000 kg

v_{o} = initial speed of asteroid = 7600 m/s

v = final speed of asteroid = 5000 m/s

W = Work done by the force on asteroid

Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem

W = (0.5) m (v^{2} - v_{o}^{2})\\W = (0.5) (43000) (5000^{2} - 7600^{2})\\W = - 7.04\times10^{11} J

b)

F = magnitude of force on asteroid

d = distance traveled by asteroid while it slows down = 1.4 x 10⁶ m

Work done by the force on the asteroid to slow it down is given as

W = - F d\\- 7.04\times10^{11} = - F (1.4\times10^{6})\\F = 5.03\times10^{5} N

A battery is the power source for what type of current
patriot [66]

Answer: DC Current

Explanation:

Battery is a source of constant potential difference and it will create a constant voltage across any conductor

due to this constant voltage difference the current in this conductor will remain constant

So here since the voltage across the conductor is constant so we can say that current in the conductor will remain constant and hence this is known as DC current.

While for variable current in direction and magnitude is to be obtained only when the conductor is connected with AC voltage source as we know that AC voltage is variable with magnitude and direction both

A battery is the power source for DC type of current.  A battery is a source of constant potential difference that produces a constant current unlike in AC source where the voltage and hence the current changes its polarity continuously.Hence, the current produced by battery is direct current and not Alternating current.

Hope this helps........ Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!! :D
