Answer:

Explanation:

we know that

s=vt here v is the speed and s is distance covered by the signals

given data

v=3*10^8

t=10 min we have to convert it into seconds

1 minute=60 seconds

so

10 minutes =10*60/1 =600 seconds

now putting the value of v and t we can find the value of s

s=vt

s=3*10^8*600

s=1.8*10^11m

i hope this will help you

What is the couple force​
Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

 a couple is a system of forces with a resultant moment but no resultant force. A better term is force couple or pure moment. Its effect is to create rotation without translation, or more generally without any acceleration of the centre of mass.

How can resonance overcome damping of an oscillating system? ​
Aneli [31]

Answer:

When one system vibrating at its natural frequency is put closer to a stationary system, the stationary system receives impulses.

At resonant frequency, the system vibrating at its own natural frequency suddenly goes on decreasing in order to cope with neighboring system.

These decrease in frequency is known as damping.

A 0.40 kg bead slides on a straight frictionless wire with a velocity of 3.50 cm/s to the right. The
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Total momentum before collision

P1 =.4 * 3.5 = 1.4       ignoring units here

Total momentum after collision

P2 = .6 * V - .4 * .7 = .6 V - .28

.6 V = 1.4 + .28   momentum before = momentum after

V = 2.8 cm/sec

In 5 sec V moves 2.8 cm/sec * 5 sec = 14 cm

An average sleeping person metabolizes at a rate of about 80 W by digesting food or burning fat. Typically, 20% of this energy g
Leto [7]

Answer:

<em> -4.7 x 10^-3 J/K-s</em>

Explanation:

The Power generated by metabolizing food = 80 W

The watt W is equivalent to the Joules per sec J/s

therefor power = 80 J/s

20% of this energy is not used for heating, amount available for heating is

==> H = 80% of 80 = 0.8 x 80 = 64 J/s

The inner body temperature = 37 °C = 273 + 37 = 310 K

The entropy of this inner body ΔS = ΔH/T

ΔS = 64/310 = 0.2065 J/K-s

The skin temperature is cooler than the inner body by 7 °C

Temperature of the skin =  37 - 7 = 30 °C = 273 + 30 = 303 K

The entropy of the skin = ΔS = ΔH/T

ΔS = 64/303 = 0.2112 J/K-s

change in entropy of the person's body = (entropy of hot region: inner body) - (entropy of cooler region: skin)

==> 0.2065 - 0.2112 =<em> -4.7 x 10^-3 J/K-s</em>
