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

Show that 1.0 m/s = 3.6 km/h . Hint: Show the explicit steps involved in converting 1.0 m/s = 3.6 km/h.
sergiy2304 [10]

Just multiply the "1.0 m/s" by ' 1 ' a few times.  (Remember that a fraction with the same quantity on top and bottom is equal to ' 1 ' .)

(1.0 m/sec) · (1 km/1000 m) · (60 sec/min) · (60 min/hr) =

(1.0 · 60 · 60 / 1,000) (m · km · sec · min / sec · m · min · hr) =

(3,600 / 1,000) (km / hr) =

3.6 km/hr .

You and your partner want to investigate how the mass of various sports balls will impact their force as they accelerate down a
luda_lava [24]

The mass of the ball is inversely proportional to acceleration of a ball.

<h3>What is friction?</h3>

This question is incomplete but I will try to help you the much I can. Friction is the force that opposes motion. Friction depends on the nature of the surfaces in contact.

When the mass of the ball is large, the acceleration of the ball decreases since mass is inversely proportional to acceleration of a body.

488 J of work is done to a box which is moved across the floor for a distance of 8.9 m. What net force is required to act on the
kvv77 [185]
According to the formula
a = f \times d
Where a is work, f is force and d is the distance that box was moved over. And from that formula, you can get that f = a/d and that is 54.83N of force

Can inserting a resistor in a circuit produce an effect similar to a short circuit?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

By ‘inserting’ you means to putting a resistor in series. In this case, no, there is no resistance that would produce the same effect as a short circuit.

If you adding a resistor in parallel with the circuit, then if it had a low value It might be similar to a short circuit. I

The newest generation of smart phone uses three different batteries connected in a series simultaneously to extend battery life
azamat

Answer:

7.2 V

Explanation:

The three batteries are connected in series to the terminals of the phone: it means that they are connected along the same branch, so the current flowing through them is the same.

This also means that the potential difference across the phone will be equal to the sum of the voltages provided by each battery.

Here, the voltage provided by each battery is

V = 2.4 V

So, the overall voltage will be

V = 2.4 V + 2.4 V + 2.4 V = 7.2 V
