Sunday, July 20, marked 45 years since the United States put the first two astronauts safely on the moon. The cost for the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo programs was more than $25 billion at the time more like $110 billion in today’s world. The ensuing U.S. space efforts have cost an additional $196 billion for the shuttle and $50 billion for the space station. NASA’s total inflation-adjusted costs have been more than $900 billion since its creation in 1958 through 2014 (more than $16 billion per year). Looking back, have we gotten our money’s worth from the investment?

Answer:
conduction.
Explanation:
Hoped I helped! Im Eve btw have a great day and consider marking this brainliest if you do thank you in advanced!
Answer:
Explanation:
λ = wave length = 632 x 10⁻⁹
slit width a = 2 x 10⁻³ m
angular separation of central maxima
= 2 x λ /a
= 2 x 632 x 10⁻⁹ / 2 x 10⁻³
= 632 x 10⁻⁶ rad
width in m of light spot.
= 632 x 10⁻⁶ x 376000 km
= 237.632 km
Answer:
Amplitude.
Explanation:
A wave can be defined as a disturbance in a medium that progressively transports energy from a source location to another location without the transportation of matter.
In Science, there are two (2) types of wave and these include;
I. Electromagnetic waves: it doesn't require a medium for its propagation and as such can travel through an empty space or vacuum. An example of an electromagnetic wave is light.
II. Mechanical waves: it requires a medium for its propagation and as such can't travel through an empty space or vacuum. An example of a mechanical wave is sound.
An amplitude can be defined as a waveform that's measured from the center line (its origin or equilibrium position) to the bottom of a trough or top of a crest.
Hence, an amplitude is a word that describes the maximum displacement a point moves from its rest position when a wave passes.
On a graph, the vertical axis (y-axis) is the amplitude of a waveform and this simply means that, it's measured vertically.
Mathematically, the amplitude of a wave is given by the formula;
x = Asin(ωt + ϕ)
Where;
x is displacement of the wave measured in meters.
A is the amplitude.
ω is the angular frequency measured in rad/s.
t is the time period measured in seconds.
ϕ is the phase angle.
Answer:
Without any external forces a moving object will continue to move in a straight line. The gravitational force between the two objects will provide the centripetal force to keep the objects moving around one another.
1. satellite in orbit around the earth (motion of earth is negligible)
2. moon in orbit around the earth (center of motion several thousand miles
from center of earth)
3. earth in orbit around sun (center of rotation close to center of sun)
4. binary stars (if masses of stars are equal center of rotation is in middle)
