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

You are a member of an alpine rescue team and must project a box of supplies, with mass m, up an incline of constant slope angle
AlekseyPX

Answer:

v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}

Explanation:

When we push the box from the bottom of the incline towards the top then by work energy theorem we can say that

Work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

- mgh - F_f (s) = 0 - \frac{1}{2}mv^2

here we know that

F_f = \mu_k mg cos\theta

also we know that the length of the incline is given as

s = \frac{h}{sin\theta}

now we have

- mgh - \mu_k mgcos\theta(\frac{h}{sin\theta}) = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we have

v = \sqrt{2gh + \frac{2\mu_kgh}{tan\theta}}

Which types of numbers does scientific notation best describe?
Travka [436]
The correct answer is
<span>c) very small and very large

Let's see this with a few examples:
1) if we have a very small number, such as
</span>0.0000000001
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using the scientific notation:
</span>1\cdot 10^{-10}
<span>2) Similarly, if we have a very large number:
</span>10000000000
<span>we see that we can write it easily by using again the scientific notation:
</span>1 \cdot 10^{10}<span>
</span>

Increasing which two things would increase gravitational potential energy?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Mass and height

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. The most common use of gravitational potential energy is for an object near the surface of the Earth where the gravitational acceleration can be assumed to be constant at about 9.8 m/s2.

Which is represented as;

PE_g=mgh

PE_g stands for gravitational potantial energy,

m stands for mass of object,

g is the gravitational constant and

h is the height.

Here we see that mass of object and height is directly proportional to the gravitational potential energy.

That means increasing in mass and height will result in increasing gravitational potential energy.
