Astronomers determine that a certain square region in interstellar space has an area of approximately 2.4 \times 10^72.4×10 ​7 ​

​ (light-years)2, where a light-year is a unit of astronomical distance. Assuming that this region is a square, then a single side of the square would be approximately how many light-years long?

Answer:

1.5 × 10³⁶ light-years

Explanation:

A certain square region in interstellar space has an area of approximately 2.4 × 10⁷² ​​ (light-years)². The area of a square can be calculated using the following expression.

A = l²

where,

A is the area of the square

l is the side of the square

l = √A = √2.4 × 10⁷² ​​ (light-years)² = 1.5 × 10³⁶ light-years

ycow [4]

Answer:

(A)

Explanation:

We know , electric potential energy between two charge particles of charges "q" and "Q" respectively is given by kqQ/r where r is the distance between them.

Since the two charged particles are moving apart, the distance between them (r) increases and thus electrical potential energy decreases.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A. the indices of refraction matched

Explanation:

The index of refraction, or refractive

index, is a measure of how fast light

rays travel through a given medium.

Alternatively, it could be said that

the refractive index is the measure of

the bending of a light ray when

passing from one medium to

another. Mathematically, it can be

represented as a ratio between two

different velocities – the velocity of

light in vacuum and the velocity of

light in a given medium.

For example, try putting a pencil in a jar full of water. If you look at the pencil from above, it would look as though the pencil has bent in the water. That happens due to the refraction of light. It occurs because as light rays enter water, they slow down, as the speed of light in water is lower than the speed of light in air. The magnitude of how much a medium refracts a light ray is determined by the index

That's the cool thing about free fall.  The amount of time it takes to fall remains the same.

In this case, a ball that is simply dropped from rest will fall at the same rate as a ball that had some umph in the horizontal direction.
