The speed of light is: c
= 3x10^8 m/s <span>
or
c = 186,000,000 miles/sec = 1.86x10^8 mi/s
1 furlong = 0.125 mile
1 fortnight = 2 weeks(7d/wk)(24h/d)(3600s/h)
= 1209600s = 1.2096x10^6 s
Therefore,
c =1.86x10^8 mi/s(1furl/0.125mi)(1.2096x10^6s/fort)
<span>c = 18x10^14 furlong/fortnight = 18x10^8 Mfurlong/fortnight</span></span>
Answer:
0 N.
Explanation:
Force: This can be defined as the product of mass and the acceleration of the body. The S.I unit of force is Newton (N).
The expression of net force when both force act in the different direction is given as
F' = W-F ........................ Equation 1
Where F' = Net force on the bag, W = gravitational force on the bag, F = Force acting upward on the bag
Given: W = 18 N, F = 18 N.
Substitute into equation 1
F' = 18-18
F' = 0 N.
Hence the net force = 0 N.
Halflife is the time taken by a radioactive substance by half its original mass. In this case the half life of the substance is 3 hours.
Therefore; New mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n where n is the number of half lives. In this case, the half life is 3 hours and therefore; the number of half lives in 6 hours will be two.
= if the original mass is 100%
new mass = 100 × (1/2)^2
= 100 × 1/4 = 25%
The remaining mass will be 1/4 of the original mass, meaning a fraction of 3/4 of the initial mass will have decayed.
Thus; the answer is 3/4
Answer:
The carriage has the energy, W = 2469.6 J
Explanation:
Given data,
The height of the hill, h = 21 m
The carriage with the baby weighs, m = 12 kg
The energy possessed by the body due to its position is the potential energy,
<em>W = P.E = mgh joules</em>
Substituting the values,
W = 12 x 9.8 x 21
= 2469.6 J
Hence, the carriage has the energy, W = 2469.6 J
