Answer:

s = 3.84 x 10⁸ m

Explanation:

The distance traveled by an object, while in uniform motion, is given by the following equation:

s = vt

where,

s = distance covered

v = speed

t = time interval

In this case:

s = distance between Moon and Earth = ?

v = speed of radio waves = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

t = time taken to travel = 1.28 s

Therefore,

s = (3 x 10⁸ m/s)(1.28 s)

<u>s = 3.84 x 10⁸ m</u>

AveGali [126]

Correct answer choice is:

C. Polarized in a vertical plane.

Explanation:

Polarized sunglasses give excellent glare shield, particularly on the water. Polarized lenses include a specific filter that prevents this type of strong reflected light, diminishing glare.

This is because when you angle one polarized lens to different perpendicularly, they prevent glare both horizontally and vertically. The polarized lenses are enduringly tinted sunglasses that exceedingly decrease glare.

Semi-trailer trucks have an odometer on one hub of a trailer wheel. The hub is weighted so that it does not rotate, but it conta
shtirl [24]

Answer:

1020 km

Explanation:

A complete rotation of the wheel equals a distance of 1 circumference.

The circumference is

C = \pi d

where <em>d</em> is the diameter of the wheel.

300,000 rotations = 300000\pi d = 300000\times\pi\times1.08\text{ m} = 1017876.0\ldots\text{ m}

In kilometers, this is = 1017876/1000 km = 1020 km

Airida [17]

The answer is A.

Acceleration means when you go faster in speed. Since the bicyclist is turning, he has to slow down but when he finishes turning, he is going to pedal harder and gain more speed. This is called Acceleration.

Best of Luck!
