Light travels through space at 186,282 miles per second and it takes about 1.3 seconds for light to travel from the moon to Eart

h. Which of the following is the correct method of finding the distance, in miles, between the moon and Earth?
Add 186,282 and 1.3
Divide 186,282 by 1.3
Multiply 186,282 by 1.3

The correct method would be multiplying the speed of light by the time it takes to travel from the moon to Earth. This is because:

S=So+V*t

In which:

S= space

So= space at the start (origin)

V=speed or velocity

t=time

By multiplying miles/second by seconds you get miles as a result.

Answer:

Multiply 186,282 by 1.3

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Speed at which the light travels = 186,282 miles/sec

Time taken for the light to travel from moon to earth = 1.3 sec

<u>To determine:</u>

Distance between earth and moon

<u>Explanation:</u>

Speed of an object is the ratio of the distance traveled by the time taken

Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time} \\\\\\Distance = Speed * Time\\In\ the\ given\ example\\\\Distance = 186,282 miles/sec * 1.3 sec = 242167 miles

I need help on 5,6,7. I would give you guys a thank you. This is going to be due very soon.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

5) Plant; 6) Heat; 7) never heard of chemosynthesis, sorry :(

Explanation:

A plant is the only thing in an ecosystem that uses photosyenthesis. This includes trees, algea, and grass.

80% of energy is lost as heat used in order to keep the animal warm.

I am really sorry I couldn’t help with 7!

Which of the following properties would be the same among isotopes of the same element?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer : The properties which would be the same among isotopes of the same element are Flammability and Color

Explanation :

Isotopes are the elements that have same number of electrons and protons but they differ in number of neutrons.

The chemical properties of an element are determined by its valence electrons and since isotope have same number of electrons, they have similar chemical properties.

But isotopes have different number of neutrons. Neutrons are the subatomic particles which are present in the nucleus. They are charge less particles and they have mass. Therefore when the elements have different number of neutrons, their atomic masses differ.

As a result, isotopes have different mass related physical properties.

Let us discuss the given properties now

1) Flammability : Flammability in simple words means the ability of the substance to catch fire or the ability to burn. This is mainly dependent on the reactivity which is in turn dependent on the number of electrons.

Since the isotopes have same number of electrons, they show similar flammability.

2) Density : Density is defined as mass per unit volume. This property involves mass and we know that isotopes have different masses. Therefore they have different densities too.

3) Melting point : Melting point is a physical property which is mainly dependent on the molecular weight of the substance. Since isotopes have different masses, they tend to show different melting points.

4) Color : The color of the element is mainly dependent on the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus. Isotopes have same number of electrons which means the arrangement would also be the same. Therefore the isotopes of the same element do not show different colors.

The properties which would be same among isotopes of the same element are

1) Flammability

4) Color

Answer:

Is called a diluted solution

Explanation:

Having little solute makes the dissolving process in a large amount of solvent very easy to mix therefore it dilutes in the solvent
