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>

Carlos was camping and getting cold as the sun went down. He wanted to light a fire for warmth and light. However, he discovered
storchak [24]
1. The chemical reaction produced by Carlo's fire is exergonic because energy is "going out". As the reaction proceeds, entropy increases as the energy stored in the dry wood and leaves are used up as fuel to create the fire which produces low quality light and warmth.  

2. This reaction is a classic example of an exothermic reaction. Exothermic reactions are characterized with the presence of heat and light in the products. Combustion reactions are always exothermic in nature.

3. Catalyst are substances that are used to speed up reactions by lowering the activation requirement. Catalysts aren't consumed in the reaction and can still be chemically retrieved afterwards. In this situation, the leaves cannot be retrieved after the reaction ends. The leaves speed up the heating of the wood but it does not behave as a catalyst.

A car is accelerated from 40 m/s to 48 m/s in 6.5 seconds. What is the magnitude of the car’s
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

AVerage acceleration is the cjange in velocity with time

a = v-u/t

v is the final velocity = 48m/s

u is the initial velocity = 40m/s

t is the time = 6.5s

a = 48-40/6.5

a = 8/6.5

a = 1.23m/s²

Hence the magnitude of the car’s  average acceleration during this period is 1.23m/s²
