Answer:

0.14 seconds

Explanation:

The speed of light in vacuum is approximately 3.0*10^8. The distance that would be covered by the object would be equivalent to the circumference of the cross-section of the earth on the equator.

Circumference = 2\pi*6400000 =4.02*10^7

Time = distance/speed = 4.2*10^7 / 3.0*10^8 =0.14s

tekilochka [14]

To solve this problem we need to use the proportional relationships between density, mass and volume, together with Newton's second law.

The force can be described as

F = ma \rightarrow mg

Where,

m = Mass

g = Gravitational acceleration

At the same time the Density can be defined as

\rho = \frac{m}{V} \rightarrow m = \rho V

Where,

m = mass

V = Volume

Replacing the value of the mass at the equation of Force we have,

F = \rho V g

Since the difference between the two forces gives us the total Force then we have to

F_T = F_w - F_p

Where

F_w = Force of the water

F_p= Force of plastic

Therefore with the values for this force we have,

F_T = \rho_w Vg - \rho_p Vg

F_T = Vg(\rho_w - \rho_p)

F_T = (\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3) g(\rho_w - \rho_p)

F_T = (\frac{4}{3} \pi (0.1)^3) (9.8)(1000 - 600)

F_T = 16.412 N

Therefore the tension in the thread is 16.412N

A charge of 6.7 × 10^-15 coulombs is located at a point where its potential energy is 5.6 × 10^-12 joules. What is the electric
natita [175]

Answer:

C. 8.4 × 10^2 volts

Explanation:

The potential energy of a charge is given by:

U=qV

where

q is the magnitude of the charge

V is the electric potential

In this problem, we have

q=6.7\cdot 10^{-15} C is the charge

U=5.6\cdot 10^{-12} J is the potential energy

Re-arranging the formula and using these numbers, we can find the electric potential:

V=\frac{U}{q}=\frac{5.6\cdot 10^{-12} J}{6.7\cdot 10^{-15} C}=835.8 V = 8.4\cdot 10^2 V

The objective lens and the eyepiece of a telescope are spaced 85 cm apart. If the eyepiece is123 D what is the total magnificati
dedylja [7]

Answer:

The magnification would be "103.55". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Distance between lens and eyepiece,

L = 85 cm

Eyepiece is,

= 123 D

Now,

The refractive power of eye piece will be:

⇒ \frac{1}{f_e}=123D

   f_e=\frac{1}{123D}

   f_e=0.813 \ cm

The length of the telescope will be:

⇒ L=f_0+f_e

⇒ f_0=L-f_e

On substituting the values, we get

⇒     =85-0.813

⇒     =84.187 \ cm

Now,

The magnification of the telescope will be:

⇒ M=\frac{f_0}{f_e}

⇒      =\frac{84.187}{0.813}

⇒      =103.55
