How fast would you be going (in kmh) if you had a ship that accelerated at a constant 1g for 24 hours?
Nady [450]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 g is 9.8 m/s^2 the problem wants the results in km/h so we'll fix that really quick.

9.8 m/s^2 (1 km/1000m)(60 sec/1 min)^2(60 min/1 hour)^2 = 127008 km/hour^2

Now, I'm assuming the ship is starting from rest, and hopefully you know your physics equations.  We are going to use vf = vi + at.  Everything is just given, or we can assume, so I'll just solve.

vf = vi + at

vf = 0 + 127008 km/hour^2 * 24 hours

vf = 3,048,192 km/hour

If there's anything that doesn't make sense let me know.

If the Sun suddenly went dark, we would not know it until its light stopped arriving on Earth. How long would that be, in second
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer: 500 s

Explanation:

Speed v is defined as a relation between the distance d and time t:

v=\frac{d}{t}

Where:

v=3(10)^{8}m/s is the speed of light in vacuum

d=1.5(10)^{11}m is the distance between the Earth and Sun

t is the time it takes to the light to travel the distance d

Isolating t:

t=\frac{d}{v}

t=\frac{1.5(10)^{11}m}{3(10)^{8}m/s}

Finally:

t=500 s
