To determine the distance of the light that has traveled given the time it takes to travel that distance, we need a relation that would relate time with distance. In any case, it would be the speed of the motion or specifically the speed of light that is travelling which is given as 3x10^8 meters per second. So, we simply multiply the time to the speed. Before doing so, we need to remember that the units should be homogeneous. We do as follows:
distance = 3x10^8 m/s ( 8.3 min ) ( 60 s / 1 min ) = 1.494x10^11 m
Since we are asked for the distance to be in kilometers, we convert
distance = 1.494x10^11 m ( 1 km / 1000 m) = 149400000 km
The latent heat of fusion refers to the solid to liquid or liquid to solid states.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:
</u>
It is known that the inter conversion process from the states of solid to liquid is referred as fusion. So, for these conversions, the external energy in the heat form should be supplied to solid.
This external energy should be greater than the latent heat of solid in order to successfully break the bonds to form liquid. So the change in the enthalpy of the reaction while conversion from solids to liquids are termed as latent heats of fusion.
Even the inter-conversion from liquid to solid state will undergo change in enthalpy where the heat will be released and that is termed as latent heats of solidification. It is found that latent heat of solidification is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction with the latent heats of fusion.
At point E
- the kinetic energy of the rollercoaster is small compared to the potential energy
- the potential energy is greater than the kinetic energy
- the total energy is a mixture of potential and kinetic energy
<h3>What is the energy of the roller coaster at point E?</h3>
The energy of a roller coaster could either be potential energy, kinetic energy or a combination of both potential and kinetic energy.
Using analogies, the energy of the roller coaster at point E can be compared to a falling fruit from a tree which falls onto a pavement and is the rolling towards the floor. Point E can be compared to the midpoint of the fall of the fruit.
At point E
- the kinetic energy of the rollercoaster is small compared to the potential energy
- the potential energy is greater than the kinetic energy
- the total energy is a mixture of potential and kinetic energy
In conclusion, the energy of the rollercoaster at E is both Kinetic and potential energy,

D. 128.25 because force=mass x acceleration
Their velocity afterwards is 2.88 m/s east
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, for an isolated system (= no external force), the total momentum must be conserved before and after the collision. So we can write:
where: in this case:
is the mass of the first player
is the initial velocity of the first player (choosing east as positive direction)
is the mass of the second player
is the initial velocity of the second player
is their combined velocity afterwards
Solving for v, we find:
And the sign is positive, so the direction is east.
