Light speed is the speed at which light can travel in a "vacuum" (space for example).

The speed of light is constant and is exactly: 299,792,458 meters per second

ONLY IN A VACUUM!!

The speed of light changes when it goes through different mediums (such as from space to Earth, light travels slower in Earth).

Good luck!

Physics question A spacecraft descends vertically near the surface of Planet X. An upward thrust of 25.0kN from its engines slow

Evgesh-ka [11]

F=m*a and m is constant on any planet
25000-m*g=m*1.2
10000-m*g=-m*0.80
m*g is the weight
25000/1.2-m*g/1.2=m
10000/0.80-m*g/0.80=-25000/1.2+m*g/1.2 solve for m*g
m*g=(10000/0.80+25000/1.2)/ (1/1.2+1/0.80)
16 kN

A coil has N turns enclosing an area of A. In a physics laboratory experiment, the coil is rotated during the time interval Δt f

scoray [572]

Answer:

$\dfrac{NBA}{\Delta t}$

Explanation:

B = Magnetic field

A = Area

$\theta$ = Angle

t = Time taken

Before rotation the magnetic flux is given by

$\phi_i=BAsin\theta\\\Rightarrow \phi_i=BAsin90\\\Rightarrow \phi_i=BA$

Magnetic flux is BA

After rotation the magnetic flux is given by

$\phi_i=BAsin\theta\\\Rightarrow \phi_i=BAsin0\\\Rightarrow \phi_i=0$

The magnetic flux is 0

Magnitude of emf is given by

$\epsilon=NA\dfrac{d\phi}{dt}\\\Rightarrow \epsilon=\dfrac{NBA}{\Delta t}$

The magnitude of the average emf induced in the entire coil is $\dfrac{NBA}{\Delta t}$

Newton’s second law states that the acceleration a of an object is proportional to the force F acting on it is inversely proport

netineya [11]

Answer:

$[F]=[MLT^{-2}]$

Explanation:

Newton’s second law states that the acceleration a of an object is proportional to the force F acting on it is inversely proportional to its mass m. The mathematical expression for the second law of motion is given by :

F = m × a

F is the applied force

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration due to gravity

We need to find the dimensions of force. The dimension of force m and a are as follows :

$[m]=[M]$

$[a]=[LT^{-2}]$

So, the dimension of force F is, $[F]=[MLT^{-2}]$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Sam is recklessly driving 60 mph in a 30 mph speed zone when he suddenly sees the police. he steps on the brakes and slows to 30

barxatty [35]

For this problem, we use the derived equations for rectilinear motion at constant acceleration. The equations used for this problem are:

a = (v - v₀)/t
2ax = v² - v₀²
where
a is the acceleration
x is the distance
v is the final velocity
v₀ is the initial velocity
t is the time

The solution is as follows;

a = (60mph - 30 mph)/(3 s * 1 h/3600 s)
a = 36,000 mph²

2(36,000 mph²)(x) = 60² - 30²
Solving for x,
x = 0.0375 miles

A horizontal force of 200 N is applied to move a 55 kg television set across a 10 m level surface. What is the work done by the

vivado [14]

Answer:

The work done is "2000 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Force,

F = 200 N

Mass,

m = 55 kg

Displacement,

d = 10 m

Now,

The work done will be:

⇒ $Work \ done= Force\times displacement$

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒ $=200\times 10$

⇒ $=2000 \ J$
