A) 15.0 years
B) 22.7 years
C) 4.20 years
D) 14.4 years
E) 10.8 years

Answer:

A) 15.0 years

Explanation:

Due to the distance to the star system is in light-year units, we can compute the time by using:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{14.4 l-y}{0.960}=15l-y

then, Rob will take to complete the trip about 15 light-years.

hope this helps!!

Which statement about gravity is true?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Out of the given options, ‘it is described as a fundamental force and therefore does not depend on other forces’ is the true statement about gravity.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

As we all know that there are four fundamental forces existing in the universe- Electromagnetic force, strong forces, weak forces and the gravitational force.

These are the forces that don’t depend on any other physical force to draw a considerable impact on the physical objects. The gravitational force can be defined as,

                     F=G \times \frac{m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2}}

Where,

G = Gravitational Constant

m_{1} , m_{2} = Masses of two substances under consideration

R = distance between the two substances.

Looking upon the formula of gravitational force we can easily estimate that the gravitational force relies on the mass of substances and the relative distance between them. There is no factor than the air friction that hinders the gravitational force and that too in a negligible amount.

Mr. Rosa’s student has a backpack with a density of 30g/mL. How much mass does the backpack have if it takes up 12.3 cm cubed of
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

m = 369 grams

Explanation:

Given that,

The density of backpack, d = 30 g/mL

The volume of the backpack, V = 12.3 cm³

We need to find the mass of the backpack. The density of an object is given by :

d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\m=d\times V\\\\m=30\times 12.3\\\\m=369\ g

So, the mass of the backpack is 369 grams.

An electron moving in the y direction at right angles to a magnetic field experiences a magnetic force in the x direction. The d
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

The direction of the magnetic field is in the  z-direction

Explanation:

Applying right hand rule, which states that when the thumb, index finger and the middle finger are held mutually at right angle to each other, with the index finger pointing in the direction of the moving charge (y- direction), the thumb pointing in the direction of the magnetic force (x-direction) pushing on the moving charge and then the middle finger pointing in the direction of the magnetic field (z-direction).
