Answer:

d = 2,998 10⁷ m

Explanation:

The speed of an electromagnetic wave is the speed of light

      c = 2,998 10⁸ m / s

This speed is in a vacuum, when the light is in a material medium, its speed is lower than this, even when the order of magnitude is maintained.

Since the speed of a wave is constant, we can use the kinematic relationship

       c = d / t

       d = c t

Let's calculate

      d = 2,998 108 0.1

      d = 2,998 10⁷ m

in the vacuum or air

Avery is experimenting with a simple circuit. She measures the current in the circuit three different time
sammy [17]

The current in each experiment increases with increase in the voltage. Similarly, the association between resistance and the current in a circuit shows that increase in the resistance shows a reduction in the current, vice versa.

Ohm's Law states that the voltage across an electric conductor is directly proportional to the current(I) passing through it provided the resistant is constant.

So;

V ∝ I

V = IR  

where

  • R = constant

The objective of this question want us to determine: How did the current change for each test provided that Avery uses a 1.5-volt battery, then she uses a 3-volt battery and lastly she uses a 9-volt battery, given that the resistance is constant through out the whole process.

In the first experiment;

  • 1.5 = IR

In the second experiment;

  • 3 = IR

In the third experiment;

  • 9 = IR

Therefore, we can conclude that the current in each experiment increases with increase in the voltage. Similarly, the association between resistance and the current in a circuit shows that increase in the resistance shows a reduction in the current, vice versa.

As water across the surface of the earth it dissolves material as it travels. What property of water does this demonstrate?
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

B) Water is a solvent

Explanation:

Among many other chemicals, water can dissolve a variety of substances. The solvent properties of chemicals are far beyond it. That property makes water a universal solvent.

Water has one atom of oxygen and two atoms of hydrogen.

One side of the water molecule is positively charged and the other side is negatively charged. This property attracts other substances like salt and disintegrates into positive and negatively charged ions. This property is due to its physical and chemical nature.

A burglar attempts to drag a 108 kg metal safe across a polished wood floor Assume that the coefficient of static friction is 0.
V125BC [204]

Answer:

2.00 m/s²

Explanation:

Given

The Mass of the metal safe, M = 108kg

Pushing force applied by the burglar,  F = 534 N

Co-efficient of kinetic friction, \mu_k = 0.3

Now,

The force against the kinetic friction is given as:

f = \mu_k N = u_k Mg

Where,

N = Normal reaction

g= acceleration due to the gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

f = 0.3\times108\times9.8

or

f = 317.52N

Now, the net force on to the metal safe is

F_{Net}= F-f

Substituting the values in the equation we get

 F_{Net}= 534N-317.52N

or

F_{Net}= 216.48

also,

 

F_{Net}= M\timesacceleration of the safe

Therefore, the acceleration of the metal safe will be

acceleration of the safe=\frac{F_{Net}}{M}

or

 acceleration of the safe=\frac{216.48}{108}

or

 

acceleration of the safe=2.00 m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration of the metal safe will be  2.00 m/s²
