Answer:3.56 nanosecond

In this case, you are asked the time and given the light distance(3.5ft)
To answer this question you would need to know the velocity of light. Speed of light is <span>299792458m/s. Then the calculation would be:

time= distance/speed
time= 3.5 ft / (</span>299792458m/s) x 0.3048 meter/ 1 ft=  3.56 10^{-9} second or 3.56 nanosecond

What are comets made of?
qaws [65]
<h2>Comets are made of Chunks of rock, gas, Ice, and dust. The Answer is A and C.</h2>

Explanation:

Comets is one of the main types of space rocks. Recent researchers has termed Comets as 'dirty snowballs' of space, that contains ice, rock, gas and dust. The solid center of the comet is less than 10 kilometers across.

Comets are believed to have originated beyond Neptune and Pluto. It is called the Oort Cloud that surrounds the solar system.

It carries carbon dioxide, methane, ammonia, and many more gases. According to Astronomers, comets are assumed to be the leftovers of the material that was initially the part of solar system about billion years ago.

Answer:

c. 0.12 m/s

Explanation:

by using momentum formula v_2=\frac{m_1\times v_1}{m_1+m_2}

we get

v_2=\frac{0.15\times 50}{0.15+65}=0.12

Why is Vy negative and not positive because I solved it and it resulted in a positive number?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Explanation:

You are given the initial velocity, the displacement, and the acceleration.  You're looking for the final velocity.  So you use the equation:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

When you solve for v, you take the square root.  Your calculator will return a positive answer, but there are actually two possible answers: positive and negative.

v = ±√(v₀² + 2aΔy)

You must use the physical context of the problem.  If we take up to be the positive direction, then v must be negative, since the projectile is moving down.
