Answer:
Use of telemetry and radar astronomy
Explanation:
An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.
After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.
The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.
A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured, once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using
distance = speed X time.
However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors
Answer:
1. The sound waves are longitudinal because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves.
2. A pulse or a wave is introduced into a slinky when a person holds the first coil and gives it a back-and-forth motion. This creates a disturbance within the medium; this disturbance subsequently travels from coil to coil, transporting energy as it moves.

Answer:
Three types of electromagnetic waves, used to transmit various information
Explanation:
A form of energy waves having both electric & magnetic fields are Electromagnetic waves. Three types -
Radio Waves - These have longest wavelengths & transmit data through radio, satellites, radar .
Micro Waves - These have shorter wavelengths & are used in cooking appliances & predicting weather.
X rays - These have more short wavelength and can penerate soft tissues like skin & muscle, hence are used for medical examining
Answer:

Explanation:
Time to mow 1 lawn by Wilma is 80 minutes
so work done in 1 minute by Wilma is given as
Similarly Rocky mow same lawn in 120 minute
so work done in 1 minute by Rocky is given as

now we know that they both worked by "t" time
so total work performed by them

they both mow 2 lawns then it is given as


It depends, You have to have the length and the width of the crest wave.
