Answer:

When meteoroids enter Earth's atmosphere (or that of another planet, like Mars) at high speed and burn up, the fireballs or “shooting stars” are called meteors. When a meteoroid survives a trip through the atmosphere and hits the ground, it's called a meteorite.

Answer: Meteoroid: Small particle from a comet or asteroid orbiting the Sun. Meteor: The light phenomena which results from a meteoroid entering the Earth's atmosphere and vaporizing; this is basically a shooting star. Meteorite: A meteoroid that survives through the Earth's atmosphere and lands on the Earth's surface.

Un avión vuela a una velocidad de 900 km/h. Si tarda en viajar desde Canarias hasta la península 180 s ¿qué distancia recorre en

wel

Answer:

El avión recorrió 45 km en los 180 s.

Explanation:

La relación entre velocidad, distancia y tiempo se da de la siguiente manera;

$Velocidad= \dfrac{Distancia}{Hora}$

Por lo cual los parámetros dados son los siguientes;

Velocidad = 900 km/h = 250 m / s

Tiempo = 180 s

Estamos obligados a calcular la distancia recorrida

De la ecuación para la velocidad dada arriba, tenemos;

Distancia recorrida = Velocidad pf viaje × Tiempo de viaje

Distancia recorrida = 900 km/h × 180 s = 900

Distancia recorrida = 900 km/h × 1 h/60 min × 1 min/60 s × 180 s = 45 km

Por lo tanto, el avión viajó 45 km en 180 s.
