Radio signals travel at a rate of 3 × 108 meters per second. how many seconds would it take for a radio signal to travel from a
nlexa [21]
<span>3.2x10^-2 seconds (0.032 seconds)
   This is a simple matter of division. I also suspect it's an exercise in scientific notation, so here is how you divide in scientific notation:

   9.6 x 10^6 m / 3x10^8 m/s

   First, divide the significands like you would normally.
 9.6 / 3 = 3.2

   And subtract the exponent. So
 6 - 8 = -2

   So the answer is 3.2 x 10^-2
 And since the significand is less than 10 and at least 1, we don't need to normalize it.

   So it takes 3.2x10^-2 seconds for the radio signal to reach the satellite.</span>

Which type of plate boundary or zone would be most likely to lead to above-ground volcanic activity?
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Convergent plate boundary

Explanation:

The convergent plate boundary refers to the type of boundary where two plates move towards each other. Due to this type of motion, there forms a subduction zone, where the denser plate subducts below the lighter plate. This zone of subduction is commonly identified by the presence of a deep and narrow V-shaped depression which is commonly known as the oceanic trench.

When the subducting plate enters into the region of the asthenosphere, the rocks melt and mix with the magma. This magma is then pushed upward due to the force exerted by the convection current that forms in the mantle, and further reaches the over-riding plate and eventually give rise to the formation of volcanoes and volcanic/island arcs.

Thus, this type of plate boundary is responsible for the formation of above-ground volcanic activities.

An object islaunched at velocity of 20 m/s in a direction making an angle of 25 degree upward with the horizontal. what is the m
Aneli [31]

Answer:

\displaystyle y_m=3.65m

Explanation:

<u>Motion in The Plane</u>

When an object is launched in free air with some angle respect to the horizontal, it describes a known parabolic path, comes to a maximum height and finally drops back to the ground level at a certain distance from the launching place.

The movement is split into two components: the horizontal component with constant speed and the vertical component with variable speed, modified by the acceleration of gravity. If we are given the values of v_o and \theta\\ as the initial speed and angle, then we have

\displaystyle v_x=v_o\ cos\theta

\displaystyle v_y=v_o\ sin\theta-gt

\displaystyle x=v_o\ cos\theta\ t

\displaystyle y=v_o\ sin\theta\ t -\frac{gt^2}{2}

If we want to know the maximum height reached by the object, we find the value of t when v_y becomes zero, because the object stops going up and starts going down

\displaystyle v_y=o\Rightarrow v_o\ sin\theta =gt

Solving for t

\displaystyle t=\frac{v_o\ sin\theta }{g}

Then we replace that value into y, to find the maximum height

\displaystyle y_m=v_o\ sin\theta \ \frac{v_o\ sin\theta }{g}-\frac{g}{2}\left (\frac{v_o\ sin\theta }{g}\right )^2

Operating and simplifying

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{v_o^2\ sin^2\theta }{2g}

We have

\displaystyle v_o=20\ m/s,\ \theta=25^o

The maximum height is

\displaystyle y_m=\frac{(20)^2(sin25^o)^2}{2(9.8)}=\frac{71.44}{19.6}

\displaystyle y_m=3.65m
