Answer:

Explanation:

Hi there,

280 miles in 68 seconds

280/68 in 1 second

= 4.12 miles per second

 

or 4.12 x 60

247.2 miles per minute

or 247.2 X 60

= 14832 miles per hour

Hope this helps :-)

D = 280m

t = 68 s

S = D/t

=280/68

= 4.1 m/s

How did astronomers precisely determine the length of an Astronomical Unit in the 1960s?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Use of telemetry and radar astronomy

Explanation:

An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.

After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.

The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.

A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured,  once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using

distance = speed X time.

However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors

Water (density = 1 ´ 103 kg/m3) flows at 10 m/s through a pipe with radius 0.030 m. the pipe goes up to the second floor of the
Hatshy [7]

density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

velocity of flow = 10 m/s

radius of pipe = 0.030 m

Height of second floor = 2 m

Now we can use here Bernuoli's Equation to find the speed of water flow at second floor

P_1 + 1/2\rho v_1^2 + \rho g h_1= P_2 + 1/2 \rho v_2^2 + \rho g h_2

P + 1/2 * 1000 * 10^2 + 1000* 9.8 * 0 = P + 1/2 * 1000 * v^2 + 1000*9.8*2

v = 7.8 m/s

Now in order to find the radius of pipe we can use equation of continuity

A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2

\pi *0.030^2 * 10 = \pi * r^2 * 7.8

r = 0.034 m

So radius of pipe at second floor is 0.034 meter

When converted to a household measurement, 9 kilograms is approximately equal to a
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

D) 19.8 lbs

Explanation:

1kg in household measurement is equal to 35.274 ounces. 35.274*9=317.466 ounces.

1kg is also equal to 2.205 lbs. 9*2.205=19.8416

9 kg is also equal to 9000 grams, but grams are not a part of the household measurement system

a) 9000 grams. b) 9000 ounces. c) 19.8 ounces. d) 19.8 pounds.

This leaves us with 19.8lbs
