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

Anna35 [415]
As the first astronaut throws the ball, lets assume it goes with v velocity and the mass of the ball be m
the momentum comes out be mv, thus to conserve that momentum the astronaut will move opposite to the direction of the ball's motion with the velocity mv/M (where M is the mass of the astronaut).

Answer:

Concrete

Explanation:

The speed at which sound propagates is medium dependent. As one of the forms of mechanical waves, sound requires a material medium for propagation from place to place.

  • Sound travels with the least speed in air because air particles are far apart and they are randomized.
  • Sound travels with the greatest speed in solids. Concrete is the only solid material given in the choice.

The speed of sound increases from air to liquid and to solid.
