The answer is 2) 1.0c. Light will always propagate through a vacuum at the speed of light “c”; even when moving at a significant fraction of the speed of light, observers will still measure this as the speed of light and the difference is resultant of time dilation.

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question with the options

answer : Doubling the Diameter increases the heat transfer rate by a factor of 4  ( B )

Explanation:

The heat transfer in the axial direction of the cylinder can be calculated/determined as attached below

\frac{q_{2} }{q_{1} } = \frac{(2D)^2}{D^2}

q_{2} = 4q_{1}  ( This shows that Doubling the diameter increases the heat transfer rate by a factor of 4 )

A supply plane needs to drop a package of food to scientists working on a glacier in greenland. the plane flies 100 m above the
pishuonlain [190]

The package should be dropped <u>678 m</u> short of the target.

A package dropped from a plane which is moving at a speed v, has a horizontal velocity equal to the horizontal velocity of the plane. It has a parabolic trajectory, traversing a horizontal range x while it falls through a vertical height y.

The package has no initial vertical velocity, and it falls through a height y under the action of the acceleration due to gravity g.

Use the equation,

y=\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Write an expression for t, the time taken for the package to fall through y.

t^2=\frac{2y}{g}

Substitute 100 m for y and 9.81m/s² for g.

t^2=\frac{2y}{g}\\ =\frac{2(100m)}{9.81m/s^2} \\ =20.39s^2\\ t=4.52s

In the time t  the package travels a horizontal distance x. The horizontal velocity of the package remains constant, since no force acts along the horizontal direction.

Therefore, the horizontal distance traveled by the package is given by,

x=vt\\ =(150m/s)(4.52s)\\ =678m

If the package is released <u>678m</u> before the target, the package would reach the scientists working in Greenland.
