The phrase "light year" is a <u><em>distance</em></u> ... it's the distance that light travels through vacuum in one year.

When you look at an object located 1 light year away from you, you see it as it was 1 year ago.

If a star located 10 light years away from us suddenly brightens, or dims, or explodes, we see the event <em>10 years later.</em>

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em>too small to be seen with an optical microscope </em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>An electron microscope is a type of microscope that is used to observe very tiny specimens whose features can not be observed by other types of microscopes.</u></em> It uses a beam of electrons to generate an image of a given specimen whose features can be clearly observed and studied.
  • <em><u>Electron microscope has very high resolution and magnification as compared to other optical microscope </u></em>hence can be observed in the study of micro-organisms such as viruses which would be difficult to study their features using optical microscopes.

A car travels at a constant speed around a circular trackwhose
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

a = 0.77 m/s^2

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given as

a = \frac{v^2}{R}

The velocity of the car can be calculated using the circumference of the track and the period of the car.

2\pi R = v T\\2\pi 2.6 = v 360\\v = 0.045 ~km/s = 45~m/s

So, the acceleration is

a = \frac{45^2}{2.6\times 10^3} = 0.77~m/s^2
