Presently, the speed of light in a vacuum is defined to be exactly 299,792,458 m/s (approximately 186,282 miles per second). . An early experiment to measure the speed of light was conducted by Ole Romer, a Danish physicist, in 1676. Using a telescope, Ole observed the motions of Jupiter and one of its moons, Io
The x- and y-coordinates are 9142.57 m and -304.425 m
<u>Explanation:</u>
As the motion of the shell is in a plane (two dimensional space) and the acceleration is that due to gravity which is vertically downward, we resolve initial velocity of the shell
in horizontal and vertical directions. If the initial velocity of the shell is making angle with the horizontal, the horizontal component of initial velocity will be

As the acceleration of the shell is vertical having no horizontal component, the shell may be considered to move horizontally with constant velocity of
and hence the horizontal distance covered (or the x coordinate of the shell with point of projection as origin) is given by


For motion with constant acceleration, we know

Along the horizontal, x-axis, we might write this as

Measuring distances relative to the firing point means

we know that,

or,

By applying the values, we get,

The acceleration of gravity is vertically downward and is
, hence the vertical distance covered (or y coordinate of the shell) is given by the second equation of motion

we know,
and
, so,

y = 11701.8 - 4.9(2450.25)= 11701.8 - 12006.225 = - 304.425 m
Answer: False
Explanation: The sun is one of earths primary energy sources. Without the sun, all animals, plants, humans would die. The sun's energy provides warmth for humans and plants and animals cannot grow without the sun.
The functions of angles are used to find unknown lengths or angles that can't be measured, in terms of known quantities. The trig functions of angles are ratios of lengths, so they're bare naked numbers without units.
