Answer:

The time taken in years is   x = 125 \  years

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  speed is  v  = 540.00 \ km /hr  =  \frac{540 *1000}{3600} =  150\  m/s

    The distance from the sun to Pluto is  d =  5.9*10^{9} \  k m =  5.9*10^9 * 1000 =  5.9*10^{12} \  m

Generally the time  taken is mathematically represented as

     t =  \frac{d}{v}

=>   t = \frac{5.9*10^{11}}{150}

=>   t =  3.933*10^{9}

Converting to years

   1 year  \to  3.154*10^7 \  s

    x \  years  \to 3.933*10^{9}

=>  x = \frac{ 3.933*10^{9} * 1 }{ 3.154 *10^7}

=>    x = 125 \  years

Which of the following accurately describe some aspect of gravitational waves? Select all that apply.
steposvetlana [31]
<h2>Answers:</h2>

-The first direct detection of gravitational waves came in 2015

-The existence of gravitational waves is predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity

-Gravitational waves carry energy away from their sources of emission

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Gravitational waves were discovered (theoretically) by Albert Einstein in 1916 and "observed" for the first time in direct form in 2015 (although the results were published in 2016).  

These gravitational waves are fluctuations or disturbances of space-time produced by a massive accelerated body, modifying the distances and the dimensions of objects in an imperceptible way.  

In this context, an excellent example is the system of two neutron stars that orbit high speeds, producing a deformation that propagates like a wave,<u> in the same way as when a stone is thrown into the water</u>. So, in this sense, gravitational waves carry energy away from their sources .

Therefore, the correct options are D, E and F.

If a football player collides with a goal post, what forces are at work?
AlekseyPX
When a footballer collides with the goal post, the forces at work are the action and reaction forces. The player will exert an action force on the goal post, and then a reaction force from the goal post will stop the player. The reaction force call will cause pain and even injury to the player.
