That depends on what it's traveling IN. The speed of light is different in every substance.

It's fastest in NO substance ... in vacuum, like in outer space. The speed of light in vacuum is 299,792,458 meters per second.

That's

9,454,254.955 million kilometers / 5,874,601.672 million miles

in 365.0 days.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

= 236N

Explanation:

tension T = mg + ma

Given that,

m = 20kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

a = 2.0 m/s²

T = m(g + a)

T = 20( 9.8 + 2.0)

= 20(11.8)

= 236N

A person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force. The force with which the earth is attract

suter [353]

Answer:

800 N

Explanation:

By Newton's third law which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

So, as the earth attracts the person towards its center, the person attracts the earth towards itself with the same magnitude of force but in the opposite direction.

Since the person is attracted towards the center of the earth by an 800 N gravitational force, the the earth is attracted toward the person with an 800 N reaction force.

The following chart provides the pH of some common foods. How many would be considered basic?

Yuri [45]

The ones with pH greater than 7

Explanation:

A pH scale is a scale for expressing the level of acidity or alkalinity of aqueous solutions.

This scale is called a pH or pOH scale. The pH is the common one.

pH of a solution is the negative logarithm to base 10 o the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution.

The scale ranges from 1 through 14.
An acidic solution has a pH value less than 7. Neutral solutions have pH of 7 and basic solutions have pH greater than 7.

I drop an egg from a certain distance and it takes the egg 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. How high up was the egg?

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

B. 68.6m

Explanation:

Free Fall Motion

When a body is left to move in the air with no friction, the motion is ruled only by the force of gravity. The vertical distance a body travels in the air after a time t is .

$\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}$

We know the egg takes 3.74 seconds to reach the ground. The height it was launched from is

$\displaystyle y=\frac{(9.8)(3.474)^2}{2}$

$\displaystyle y=68.54\ m$

The closest correct option is

B. 68.6m
