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>

How can a magnetic field be produced, using a wire, a battery, and and a nail?
Aleks [24]
It is fairly easy to build an electromagnet. All you need to do is wrap some insulated copper wire around an iron core. If you attach a battery to the wire, an electric current will begin to flow and the iron core will become magnetized. When the battery is disconnected, the iron core will lose its magnetism. Follow these steps.
Step 1 - Gather the Materials
One iron nail fifteen centimeters (6 in) long
Three meters (10 ft) of 22 gauge insulated, stranded copper wire
One or more D-cell batteries
Step 2 - Remove some Insulation
Step 3 - Wrap the Wire Around the Nail
Step 4 - Connect the Battery

Si tomamos como referencia el recipiente uno y se aplican 5 gramos de tinta y el agua se moviera a una velocidad de 10m/s cual s
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Kinetic energy = 0.25 J

Explanation:

The question is "If we take container one as a reference and apply 5 grams of ink and the water moves at a speed of 10m / s, what would the kinetic energy of the solution be?"

We have,

Mass of ink, m = 5 grams = 0.005 kg

Speed of water, v = 10 m/s

We need to find the kinetic energy of the solution of water and ink. Kinetic energy is associated with the motion of an object. Its formula is given by :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.005\times (10)^2\\\\K=0.25\ J

So, the kinetic energy of the solution is 0.25 Joules.

A solid circular plate has a mass of 0.25 kg and a radius of 0.30 m. It starts rolling from rest at the top of a hill 10 m long
KATRIN_1 [288]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the conservation of both <em>kinetic of rolling objects</em> and potential energy and the moment of inertia.

The net height from the point where it begins to roll with an inclination of 30 degrees would be

h=Lsin30

h=10sin30

h=5m

In the case of Inertia would be given by

I = \frac{mR^2}{2}

In general, given an object of mass m, an effective radius k can be defined for an axis through its center of mass, with such a value that its moment of inertia is

I = mk^2

\frac{mR^2}{2}= mk^2

\frac{k^2}{R^2}=\frac{1}{2}

Replacing in Energy conservation Equation we have that

Potential Energy = Kinetic Energy of Rolling Object

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2(1+\frac{k^2}{r^2})

9.8*5=\frac{1}{2}v^2(1+\frac{1}{2})

v^2 (1.5) = 98

v=8.0829m/s

Therefore the correct answer is C.
