Using the precise speed of light in a vacuum (299,792,458 \ \frac{m}{s}), and your given distance of 1.152 * 10^{8} km, we can convert and cancel units to find the answer. The distance in m, using \frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km}, is 1.152 * 10^{11} m. Next, for the speed of light, we convert from s to min, using \frac{1 \ min}{60 \ s}, so we divide the speed of light by 60. Finally, dividing the distance between the Sun and Venus by the speed of light in km per min, we find that it is 6.405 min.

The prediction that alcohol slows reaction time is:_________.
ddd [48]

Answer:

b) directional

Explanation:

The prediction that alcohol slows reaction time is Directional . This is because for alcohol to be known as one which slows reaction time means there have been various hypothesis conducted which supports this.

In this case, formulation of a null hypothesis is usually necessary which means that alcohol does not slow reaction time and another alternative hypothesis that suggests that alcohol slows reaction time.

Answer:

When substances made of iron are exposed to oxygen and moisture (water), rusting takes place. Rusting removes a layer of material from the surface and makes the substance weak. Rusting is a chemical change.
