Answer: 55.814 trillion kilometers

Explanation:       \frac{d}{5.9 light\\years}       \frac{9.46 trillion kilometers}{1 light year}

d (1 light year) = 9.46 trillion kilometers (5.9 light years)

d (1) = 9.46 trillion kilometers (5.9)

d = 55.814 trillion kilometers

A star is located 5.9 light years from Earth.
We know that : 1 light year = 9.46  trillion kilometers.
We will calculate the distance in trillion kilometers multiplying the number of light years by 9.46:
5.9 * 9.46 = 55.814
Answer: The distance is 55.814 trillion km.

A kite is 100m above the ground. if there are 200m of string out what is the angle between the string and the horizontal? (assum
jeka57 [31]

Answer :  The angle between the string and the horizontal is 30 degrees

Explanation:  Imagine this a a triangle where the length of the string (200m) is the hypotenuse and the height of the kite is the opposite side (100m) .

Let the angle between the string and the horizontal be theta.

Now  sin (Theta) = opposite side/hypotenuse

                             =  100/200 = 1/2

Therefore Theta = Sin ⁻¹ ( 1/2 )

Theta = 30 degrees

A beam of light, with a wavelength of 4170 Å, is shined on sodium, which has a work function (binding energy) of 4.41 × 10 –19 J
Lyrx [107]

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of the light, \lambda=4170\ A=4170\times 10^{-10}\ m

Work function of sodium, W_o=4.41\times 10^{-19}\ J

The kinetic energy of the ejected electron in terms of work function is given by :

KE=h\dfrac{c}{\lambda}-W_o\\\\KE=6.63\times 10^{-34}\times \dfrac{3\times 10^8}{4170\times 10^{-10}}-4.41\times 10^{-19}\\\\KE=3.59\times 10^{-20}\ J

The formula of kinetic energy is given by :

KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2KE}{m}} \\\\v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 3.59\times 10^{-20}}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}} \\\\v=2.8\times 10^5\ m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

In operant conditioning, generalization occurs when
Vitek1552 [10]
Typically occurs when we associate things to other things that look alike. We see that in many experiments, specifically “Little Albert” who was conditioned to be afraid of rats but later was afraid of anything that resembled that of a rat.
Hope this helps!
