The speed of light is about 300,000 km/s (3×105km/s). If Jupiter is 0.72 light hours from the Sun, how far is this?

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.

What is an Amplitude
dangina [55]

Amplitude is a measurement of the magnitude of displacement (or maximum disturbance) of a medium from its resting state, as diagramed in the peak deviation example below (it can also be a measurement of an electrical signal's increased or decreased strength above or below a nominal state).

forsale [732]

Answer:

Explanation:

L 1: front radius 950 mm, rear radius 2700 mm, refractive index 1.528;

We shall use lens maker's formula , that is

1/f = (μ-1) ( 1/R₁ - 1/R₂) , μ is refractive index of the lens , R₁ and R₂ are  radius of curvature of front and rear curved surface.

1/f₁ = (1.528-1)( 1/950 + 1/2700)

f₁ = 1331 mm

L2: front radius 535 mm, rear radius 500 mm, refractive index 1.550.

1/f₂ = (1.550-1)( 1/535 + 1/500)

f₂ = 470 mm

largest angular magnification possible

= f₁ /f₂

= 1331 / 470

= 2.83 ( approx )

Length between two lenses

=1331 +470

= 1801  mm

=  1.8 m Ans

Using parallax, what is the distance to the<br> farthest stars you can measure?
aev [14]
Parallax angles of less than 0.01 arcsec are very difficult to measure from Earth because of the effects of the Earth's atmosphere. This limits Earth based telescopes to measuring the distances to stars about 1/0.01 or 100 parsecs away.
