As space exploration increases, means of communication with humans and probes on other planets are being developed. (a) How much

time (in s) does it take for a radio wave of frequency 8.93 x 10⁷ s⁻¹ to reach Mars, which is 8.1 x 10⁷ km from Earth? (b) If it takes this radiation 1.2 s to reach the Moon, how far (in m) is the Moon from Earth?

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Speed of radio waves in space = speed of light in space

= 3 x 10⁸ m /s

Time taken = distance / speed

= 8.1 x 10⁷ x 10³ / 3 x 10⁸ s

= 2.7 x 10² s

= 270 s

b )

Distance = speed x time

= 3 x 10⁸ x 1.2 m

= 3.6 x 10⁸ m

= 3.6 x 10⁵ km

Why does galium melt
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Like most other metals, Gallium is solid at room temperature (or liquid if it is too hot in your room). But, if it is held [in hands] for long enough, it melts in your hands, and doesn't poison you like Mercury would. This is because of its unusually low melting point of (~29 degree Centigrade).

- It melts once it reaches its melting point.

A rectangular fence is 3 times as long as it is wide. The perimeter is 60ft. Find the dimensions of the fence
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The length of the fence is 22.5ft and the width of the fence is 7.5ft.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will turn this question into an equation.

The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2l + 2w = perimeter.

In the question we were given the perimeter so we can go ahead and plug this in.

2l + 2w = 60

In the question we are also told that the fence is 3 times as long as it is wide. This means that 1l = 3w. We can now subsitute l for 3w so that we only have one variable.

2(3w) + 2w = 60

Now we can simply use algebra to solve for w.

6w + 2w = 60

8w = 60

w = 7.5

Now that we know the value of w we can find the value of l since we know 1l = 3w.

l = 3w

l = 3(7.5)

l = 22.5

The length of the fence is 22.5ft and the width of the fence is 7.5ft.
