If the Sun suddenly went dark, we would not know it until its light stopped arriving on Earth. How long would that be, in second
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer: 500 s

Explanation:

Speed v is defined as a relation between the distance d and time t:

v=\frac{d}{t}

Where:

v=3(10)^{8}m/s is the speed of light in vacuum

d=1.5(10)^{11}m is the distance between the Earth and Sun

t is the time it takes to the light to travel the distance d

Isolating t:

t=\frac{d}{v}

t=\frac{1.5(10)^{11}m}{3(10)^{8}m/s}

Finally:

t=500 s

Which represents the net force
ipn [44]

Answer:

The net force is 500N downwards

Explanation:

When Haley is trying to pull an object upward. The below forces are acting on the object.  

Fp = 5500N

Fg = 6000N

because the force of gravity is more than the force of the pull.

Fnet = Fg - Fp = 6000N - 5500N = 500N

And, the direction of the resultant force is the direction of the larger force.

1. Which of the following statements best describes matter?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass

Explanation:

The word "matter" refers to anything that has mass, either organic or inorganic. Matter is made up of atoms, which consists of a nucleus (made up of protons, positively charged, and neutrons, electrically neutron) and electrons which revolve around the nucleus.

The number of protons in the atom determine the element: there are more than 100 different elements in nature, with different properties depending on the number of electrons they have.

Matter can be in three different states also:

- solid: the atoms are tightly bond to each other, so they cannot move

- liquids: atoms are not bond to each other, so they can slide past each other, but still they have some intermolecular forces that keep them close to each other

- gas: atoms are free to move, as there are no forces that keep them close to each other
