Given that average speed is distance traveled divided by time, determine the values of m and n when the time it takes a beam of

light to get from the Sun to the Earth (in s) is written in scientific notation. Note: the speed of light is approximately 3.0×108 m/s.

If speed = distance/time , then time = speed/distance.

So...

Speed of light = 3*10^8(m/s)
Average distance from Earth to Sun = 149.6*10^9(m)

Therefore, t=(3*10^8(m/s))/(149.6*10^9(m))

I hope this was a helpful explanation, please reply if you have further questions about the problem.

Good luck!

suppose that 273 g of one of the substances listed above displaces 26 mL of water. What is the substance?
guajiro [1.7K]
<span>The unknown substance is silver. I don't see a list of available substances, but let's see if there's something reasonable available that will match. First, let's calculate the density of the unknown substance. Density is mass per volume, so 273 g / 26 mL = 10.5 g/mL Looking up a list of elements sorted by density, I see the following: 10.07 Actinium 10.22 Molybdenum 10.5 Silver 11.35 Lead And silver at 10.5 g/ml is a very nice match for the unknown substances' density of 10.5 g/ml.</span>

What is the kinetic energy of a 0.25kg ball rolling at a speed of 2.5m/s
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy formula:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv²

m=mass

v=speed

Given:

m=0.25kg

v=2.5m/s

Plug the values in:

KE = 1/2(0.25kg)(2.5m/s)²

KE = 0.78125 J (Joules)
