D = 0.9 km = 900 m, distance moved
v = 35 nm/s , the speed

v = 35 x 10⁻⁹ m/s
   = (35 x 10⁻⁹ m/s)*(365 days/y)*(24*60*60 s/day)
   = 1.1038 m/y

The time iaken is
t = d/v
  = (900 m)/(1.1038 m/y)
  = 815.365 y

Answer: 815.4 y (nearest tenth)

In the chemical equation above, the small number after the O in 1202 represent —
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

G.) The number atoms of that element in the molecule

Explanation:

F is incorrect because the coefficient represents the amount of one type of molecule, not the subscript

G is correct because subscripts represent how many atoms of that element are present in that single molecule

H is incorrect because energy is not represented in this simple type of equation

J is incorrect because it doesn't even make sense

How does tightening a string on a guitar affect its natural frequency?
iragen [17]
By tightening a string you are actually putting more stress on the string you are giving it a new frequency that isn't natural.

Hope this helps

Jack and Jill have made up since the previous HW assignment, and are now playing on a 10 meter seesaw. Jill is sitting on one en
Airida [17]

Answer: 3 m.

Explanation:

Neglecting the mass of the seesaw, in order the seesaw to be balanced, the sum of the torques created by  gravity acting on both children  must be 0.

As we are asked to locate Jack at some distance from the fulcrum, we can take torques regarding the fulcrum, which is located at just in the middle of the length of the seesaw.

If we choose the counterclockwise direction as positive, we can write the torque equation as follows (assuming that Jill sits at the left end of the seesaw):

mJill* 5m -mJack* d = 0

60 kg*5 m -100 kg* d =0

Solving for d:

d = 3 m.
