To determine the distance of the light that has traveled given the time it takes to travel that distance, we need a relation that would relate time with distance. In any case, it would be the speed of the motion or specifically the speed of light that is travelling which is given as 3x10^8 meters per second. So, we simply multiply the time to the speed. Before doing so, we need to remember that the units should be homogeneous. We do as follows:
distance = 3x10^8 m/s ( 8.3 min ) ( 60 s / 1 min ) = 1.494x10^11 m
Since we are asked for the distance to be in kilometers, we convert
distance = 1.494x10^11 m ( 1 km / 1000 m) = 149400000 km
If you want to tell a friend about a fish you caught or a tree you cut down,
you're going to tell him WHERE you were ... its position in space, 3 numbers,
'x', 'y', and 'z' ... and also WHEN you were ... its position in time, one more
number.
Dimensions are numbers used to describe the location of a point, and the
difference in location between two points. With four numbers, you can exactly
describe the location of anything, and its distance from any other thing, in
space and time.
Answer:
11.27N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the book = 1.15kg
Unknown:
Magnitude of the normal force = ?
Solution:
The normal force is the vertical force exerted by a body on an object.
It can be described as the weight of an object.
Normal force = mass x acceleration due to gravity
Normal force = 1.15 x 9.8 = 11.27N
