Something that moves faster than a light turning on. or 299 792 458 m / s and as the person put above in the coments

"<span>The speed of light in vacuum, commonly denoted c, is a universal physical constant important in many areas of physics. Its precise value is 299792458 metres per second (approximately 3.00×10⁸ m/s), since the length of the metre is defined from this constant and the international standard for time"

Most interstellar clouds are: Most interstellar clouds are: much bigger than our solar system. similar in size to clouds in Eart
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Most interstellar clouds are much bigger than our solar system.

Explanation:

An interstellar cloud  refers:

  • It is generally an accumulation of gas, plasma, and dust in our and other galaxies.
  • It is basically a denser-than-average region of the interstellar medium (ISM).

Interstellar clouds can be large up to 106 solar masses

It is also often said to be the most massive entities in the galaxy.

Hence

we can say about Interstellar clouds,

They are much bigger than our solar system.

Two identical cars, one on the moon and one on the earth, have the same speed and are rounding banked turns that have the same r
Naily [24]

Answer:

The value of the centripetal forces are same.

Explanation:

Given:

The masses of the cars are same. The radii of the banked paths are same. The weight of an object on the moon is about one sixth of its weight on earth.

The expression for centripetal force is given by,

F_{c} = \dfrac{mv^{2}}{r}

where, m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity of the object and r is the radius of the path.

The value of the centripetal force depends on the mass of the object, not on its weight.

As both on moon and earth the velocity of the cars and the radii of the paths are same, so the centripetal forces are the same.

An early method of measuring the speed of light makes use of a rotating slotted wheel. A beam of light passes through one of the
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

Explanation:

During the time light goes and comes back , one slot is replaced by next slot while rotating  before the light source

Time taken by light to travel a distance of 2 x 500 m is

= (2 x 500) / 3 x 10⁸

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ s .

In this time period, two consecutive slots come before the source of light one after another by rotation. There are 400 slots so time taken to make one rotation

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ x 400

= 13.33 x 10⁻⁴ s

This is the time period so

T = 13.33 X 10⁻⁴

Angular speed

= 2π / T

= \frac{2\times3.14}{13.33\times10^{-4}}

4.7 x 10³ rad / s
