Ok this one is pretty straight forward :) This is what we know:

1. 2.7GHz is how many vibrations in 1 second. (2.7 x10^9 Hz)
2. Light always has a constant speed 2.9 x10^8 meters per second.

Therefore to find out the length of one of those vibrations you just divide        2.9 x10^8 by 2.7 x10^9
which looks like this in your calculator:
290000000 / 2700000000
= 0.107m
= 10cm

Write down the condition required for the thermonuclear fusion.​
storchak [24]

Explanation:

The temperature must be hot enough to allow the ions of deuterium and tritium to have enough kinetic energy to overcome the Coulomb barrier and fuse together. The ions must be confined with a high ion density to achieve a suitable fusion reaction rate.

A 120-kg roller coaster cart is being tested on a new track, and a crash-test dummy is loaded into it. The roller coaster starts
avanturin [10]

Answer:

vb = 22.13 m/s

So, the only thing that was measured here was the height of point A relative to point B. And the Law of Conservation of Energy was used.

Explanation:

In order to find the speed of roller coaster at Point B, we will use the law of conservation of Energy. In this situation, the law of conservation of energy states that:

K.E at A + P.E at A = K.E at B + P.E at B

(1/2)mvₐ² + mghₐ = (1/2)m(vb)² + mg(hb)

(1/2)vₙ² + ghₐ = (1/2)(vb)² + g(hb)

where,

vₙ = velocity of roller coaster at point a = 0 m/s

hₙ = height of roller coaster at point a = 25 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

vb = velocity of roller coaster at point B = ?

hb = Height of Point B = 0 m (since, point is the reference point)

Therefore,

(1/2)(0 m/s)² + (9.8 m/s²)(25 m) = (1/2)(vb)² + (9.8 m/s²)(0 m)

245 m²/s² * 2 = vb²

vb = √(490 m²/s²)

<u>vb = 22.13 m/s</u>

<u>So, the only thing that was measured here was the height of point A relative to point B. And the Law of Conservation of Energy was used.</u>

What happens to the pressure in all parts of a confined fluid if the pressure in one part is increased?
Sauron [17]

Answer:

The pressure will be transmitted equally to all other parts of the confined fluid causing a general increase in pressure throughout the container.

Explanation:

This is in line with pascal's law of pressure which states that the pressure exerted on a given mass of fluid is transmitted undiminished to other parts of the fluid.
