Answer:
d) The speed of the astronaut
Explanation:
The sentence describes the speed of the astronaut. This speed value is 10meters per minute.
Now let us understand why;
- Speed is the distance divided by time. It is a scalar quantity without regard for direction but it has magnitude.
- The value 10meters per minute clearly shows this instance. We do not know the direction the astronaut is moving towards.
- Velocity, like speed is the displacement of a body with time. It is a vector quantity and it shows the direction of motion.
- For example, 10m/s due west is a velocity value because we know the direction.
Therefore, since there is no directional sense, the value indicates speed.
it depends upon what state they are in like in motion or res
If this case could ever happen, the speed would follow from this formula:
with f the frequency and lambda the wavelength. We are give a wavelength of 10m. The frequencies of the visible light can range between 400 to about 790 Terahertz, so let us pick a middle point of 600 THz ("green-ish") as a "representative."
The speed of such a wave would have to be 6e+15 m/s (which would be 7 orders of magnitude higher than the universal speed of light constant)
The answer is C. The mass of the platinum sample is greater than the mass of the lead sample. As I explained in a previous answer, if they are the same volume, but one is heavier, then it must be more dense. In this particular example, the platinum is more dense than the lead, and therefore has more mass.
