Two astronauts are 1.5m apart in their spaceship.One speaks to the other. The conversation is transmitted to earth via electroma

gnetic waves. The time it takes for sound waves to travel at 343 m/s through the air between the astronauts equals the time it takes for the electromagnetic waves to travel to the earth. How far away from the earth is the spaceship?

Answer:

1311900 m far away from the earth

Explanation:

Given data

astronauts = 1.5 m

sound waves to travel = 343 m/s

to find out

How far away from the earth

solution

we know 2 astronauts are at distance 1.5 m from each other

and  sound travel  343 m/s

so time period = distance / sound speed

time period = 1.5 / 343 = 4.373 ×10^{-3} sec

and time for sound reach at earth

speed of sound = 3 ×10^{8}  m/s

so

time  = distnace /   3 ×10^{8}

4.373 ×10^{-3}  = distnace /   3 ×10^{8}

distance = 4.373 ×10^{-3} × 3 ×10^{8}

distance = 1311900 m

so 1311900 m far away from the earth

The prediction that alcohol slows reaction time is:_________.
ddd [48]

Answer:

b) directional

Explanation:

The prediction that alcohol slows reaction time is Directional . This is because for alcohol to be known as one which slows reaction time means there have been various hypothesis conducted which supports this.

In this case, formulation of a null hypothesis is usually necessary which means that alcohol does not slow reaction time and another alternative hypothesis that suggests that alcohol slows reaction time.

Julli [10]

The two forces should be equal therefore:

2.10 * Fa = Fa + 2 * F * cos 18

simplifying the right side:

2.10 * Fa = Fa + 1.902 * F

1.10 Fa = 1.902 F

<span>F / Fa = 0.578</span>
