Answer:
Distance = 3.69 × 10^9 m
The distance from the probe to Earth is 3.69 × 10^9 m
Explanation:
Distance from the probe to the Earth can be derived using the simple motion formula;
Distance = speed × time .....1
Since a radio signal uses an electromagnetic wave to transfer signal, it has the same speed as the speed of light.
Speed of radio signal = speed of light = 3.0 × 10^8 m/s
time taken to reach the earth = 12.3 seconds
Substituting the values of speed and time into equation 1;
Distance = 3.0 × 10^8 m/s × 12.3 s
Distance = 36.9 × 10^8 m
Distance = 3.69 × 10^9 m
Note: all electromagnetic radiation have the same speed which is equal to 3.0 × 10^8 m/s
Answer:
The statement "If a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the two objects will repel
" applies to electric charges.
Explanation:
There are only two types of electric charges. Both having own magnitude but different charge.
1. Positive charge
2. Negative charge
Like charges repel each other and opposite charges always attract each other.
When a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the rod and the object will repel.
Acceleration means speeding up, slowing down, or changing direction. The graph doesn't show anything about direction, so we just have to examine it for speeding up or slowing down ... any change of speed.
The y-axis of this graph IS speed. So the height of a point on the line is speed. If the line is going up or down, then speed is changing.
Sections a, c, and d are all going up or down. Section b is the only one where speed is not changing. So we can't be sure about b, because we don't know if the track may be curving ... the graph can't tell us that. But a, c, and d are DEFINITELY showing acceleration.
Radio waves are the longest
The answer is D. the way I remember it is they all end with -alism.
