Speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Time to make the trip = 494 sec

Distance = (speed) x (time)

Distance = (3 x 10⁸ m/s) x (494 s)

Distance = 1,482 x 10⁸ meters

<em>Distance = 1.482 x 10¹¹  meters</em>

Distance = 1.482 x 10⁸  kilometers

π=iMRT

Where, π is Osmotic pressure,
i=1 for non-electrolytes,
M is molar concentration of dissolved species (units of mol/L)
R is the ideal gas constant = 0.08206 L atm mol⁻¹K⁻¹,
T is the temperature in Kelvin(K),

Here, to calculate M convert into standard units mg tog, ml to L, c to Kelvin
M= (\frac{35.8}{598} *10⁻³ )/ 0.175 =(5.987 *10⁻⁵)mol / 0.175L = 34.21*10⁻⁵ mol/L

π=iMRT=(1)*(34.21*10⁻⁵)*(0.08206)*(298.15)=837×10⁻⁵= 8.37×10⁻³ atm
=6.36 torr
(1 atm=760 torr, 1 Kelvin =273.15 °C, 1L=1000ml, 1g=1000mg)

Are photons causing the electrons to flow off of the target? ( the target is calcium)
Sliva [168]

Answer:

The energy lost by the atoms is given off as an electromagnetic wave. ... even if it's not very intense, will always cause electrons to be emitted.

Which law of motion accounts for the following statement? "A planet stays in orbit around the Sun." first law second law third l
Amanda [17]
It is definitely the first law, the first law is the law of inertia. It states that an object remains in its state of rest or uniform motion on a straight line except compelled by an external force. The planet remains in its position because there is no external force acting on it which will make it move. Hope i helped. have a nice day<span />

3. A rock is placed in a graduated cylinder containing water, and the cylinder is covered to avoid evaporation. The next morning
guajiro [1.7K]

Hi! Some rocks are porous material, like a sponge, with lots of air pockets inside, so they can absorbe water. In this case, the water level dropped 5.65m because tha volume of water went inside the rock filling the air pockets. The water replaced the air, that flowed to the outside water as bubbles and then to the air above the water.

A car is moving with a uniform velocity.find out the force of which it is moving
olya-2409 [2.1K]
If a car is moving with uniform velocity, then there is
no net force acting on it.

The force of the engine is exactly enough to balance
the forces of friction and air resistance against the car.

Also notice that there can't be any centripetal force, and the
car can't be on a curve.  If it's moving with "uniform velocity",
that means steady speed in a straight line.
