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>

Ions can have a positive or negative charge. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
mixas84 [53]

From among the choices provided, the more appropriate
answer is ' T ', the initial letter often used to represent
words that include 'true', 'truth', 'trust', etc., (as well as
'tree', 'train', 'transmit', 'Transylvania', 'trachea', 'travesty',
and 'trick', which are irrelevant to the present discussion).

This response is the most fitting and appropriate, because
the statement that precedes the list of allowable choices is
exemplary in its accuracy and veracity.  An ion can, in fact,
have a positive or negative charge, although the same ion
cannot have both.

dlinn [17]

The reciprocal of the total resistance is equal to the sum of the reciprocals of the component resistances:

1/(120.7 Ω) = 1/<em>R₁</em> + 1/(221.0 Ω)

1/<em>R₁</em> = 1/(120.7 Ω) - 1/(221.0 Ω)

<em>R₁</em> = 1 / (1/(120.7 Ω) - 1/(221.0 Ω)) ≈ 265.9 Ω

If a refrigerator is a heat pump that follows the first law of thermodynamics, how much heat was removed from food inside of the
Serjik [45]
The first law of thermodynamics states the conservation of energy and heat where the total energy in an isolated system may be transformed into another, but never created or destroyed. If 314 J of energy was released to the room, then also 314 J of energy was also removed from food in that refrigerator assuming it is an isolated system. <span>
