Answer:

7.77 x 10⁸ Km

Explanation:

given,

Speed of light = 3 x 10⁵ Km/s

                        = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

1 light hour = 1.079 x 10⁹ Km

now,

0.72 light hour = 0.72 x 1.079 x 10⁹ Km

                         = 0.7769 x 10⁹ Km

                         = 7.77 x 10⁸ Km

The Jupiter is 7.77 x 10⁸ Km far from sun.

Answer:

Explanation:

speed of light, v = 3 x 10^8 m/s

time = 0.72 hour

distance = velocity x time

distance = 3 x 10^8 x 0.72 x 3600

distance = 7776 x 10^8 m = 7.78 x 10^8 km

Thus, the distance is 7.78 x 10^8 km.

The speed of the center of the earth as it orbits the sun is 107257 kmph and the absolute angular velocity of the earth about it
Sindrei [870]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Speed ,v_0=107257 kmph

Angular velocity,\omega=7.292\times 10^{-5} rad/s

Radius of earth,r=6371 km=6371000 m

1 km=1000 m

Linear velocity,v=r\omega=6371000\times 7.292\times 10^{-5}=464.57 m/s

Linear velocity,v=464.57\times \frac{18}{5}=1672.46 km/h

Velocity at point A,v_A=-vi+v_0 j=-1672.46 i+107257j kmph

Velocity at point B,v_B=v_0j-vj=107257j-1672.46j=105584.54j kmph

Velocity at point C,v_C=v_0j+vi=1672.46 i+107257j kmph

Velocity at point  D,v_D=v_0j+vj=107257j+1672.46j=108929.46jkmph

Hi, I need your help with this Physics exercise, I hope you can help me A pulse moving to the right along the x axis is represen
igomit [66]

Answer:

Velocity = 0.309 m/s

Along negative x axis

Explanation:

A pulse moving to the right along the x axis is represented by the wave function

y(x,t) = 2/ (x - 3t)² + 1

At t =0

y(x,0) = 2/ ((x - 3(0))² + 1)

        =2 / (x² + 1)

At t = 1

y(x,t) = 2/ ((x - 3(1))² + 1)

= 2 /(( x - 3)² + 1)

At t = 2

y(x,t) = 2/ ((x - 3(2))² + 1)

= 2 /(( x - 6)² + 1)

For the pulse with expression y(x,t) = 4.5e^{-(8.73x + 2.70t)}²

The Velocity is

V = 2.7 / 8.73

= 0.309 m/s
