We know that the source of light in the universe is the Sun. Hence, the light we see as moonlight travels from the Sun's surface, to the moon, then to Earth. So, before being able to solve this problem, we have to know the distance between the Sun and the moon, and the distance between the moon and Earth. In literature, these values are 3.8×10⁵ km (Sun to moon) and 384,400 km (moon to Earth). Knowing that the speed of light is 300,000 km per second, then the total time would be
Time = distance/speed
Time = (3.8×10⁵ km + 384,400 km)/300,000 km/s
Time = 2.548 seconds
Thus, it only takes 2.548 for the light from the Sun to reach to the Earth as perceived to be what we call moonlight.
Answer:
PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST!!
Explanation:
A getting passenger getting down from a moving bus, falls in the direction of the motion of the bus. This is because his feet come to rest on touching the ground and the remaining body continues to move due to inertia of motion.
<span>The velocity will be 41.25 m/s2 after 9 seconds. To find velocity after a specific time period, multiply the acceleration (2.75) times the number of seconds (9) to receive 24.75 m/s, then add that to the initial velocity of 16.5 m/s. 24.75 + 16.5 = 41.25 m/s2.</span>
Answer:
A: Soil
Explanation:
Protists need a moist environment to survive, and shallow ponds, oceans, and blood is all moist. So, the answer would be the soil, because that is the least moist environment out of these options.
