Allisa [31]3 years ago

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

Develop an equation (with a proportionality constant) that describes the relationship between the gravitational force (fgrav), t
ivolga24 [154]

According to newton's law of gravitation, the gravitational force(F)  is directly proportional to the product mass of the moon(Mm) and the mass of the planet (Mp) and it is inversely proportional to the square of the separation between them.

Fg ∝ (Mp)(Mm) →(1)

Fg ∝ 1/d²→(2)

Combining equation (1) and (2),

Fg ∝ (Mp)(Mm)/d²

Fg =  G(Mp)(Mm)/d²

This is an equation that describes the relation between mass of moon (Mm) and mass of planet (Mp) and separation(d) between them.

To support the claim in favuor of this equation we use this equation to obtain the value of acceleration due to gravity on earth.

Let m be the mass of an object on earth then Fg between earth (Mp) and mass of an object is obtained by:

Fg =  G(Mp)(m)/R², where R= Radius of earth

This force is equal to the weight of an object i.e.,

g= G(Mp)/R²

Putting the values of G, Mp and R , we get, g=9.81 m/s²

which is the value we obtained on earth for acceleration due to gravity.

What is a positive effect of increased carbon dioxide within the carbon cycle?
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The positive impact in the cycle is that CO2 will make plants to use water more efficiently and also thereby make them to become drought resistant and thereby grow faster.

Explanation:

Carbon cycle is the process by which carbon dioxide travels from the atmosphere to the earth and returns back to the atmosphere.

The negative impact of carbon dioxide in the carbon cycle is that it will cause green house effect. However, when it comes to the positive impact in the cycle, CO2 will make plants to use water more efficiently and also thereby make them to become drought resistant and thereby grow faster.
