Answer:

340 seconds = 5.667 minutes

Explanation:

As we know, S = v t or t = S / v (S = 51 x 10^9 m and v = 3 x 10^8 ms^-1)

So, t = 51 x 10^9 / 3 x 10^8 = 17 x 10^1 = 170 s

For a RTT estimation, the time span will be doubled of one way propagation for transmission and receive delay.

The over all round trip time will be = 170 x 2 = 340 seconds = 5.667 minutes

A brick is dropped from a high scaffold. a. What is its velocity after 4.0s ?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

A: 1.962

B: 3.924

Explanation:

g = G *M /R^2

g = 9.807*M/R^2 the gravitational constant of ground level on earth is about 9.807

g = 9.807*5lbs/R^2 the average brick is about 5 pounds.

g = 9.807*5*10^2.   I'm assuming the height is around ten feet to help you out.

with these numbers plugged in you get an acceleration of 0.4905 a final velocity after 4 seconds 1.962. It's height fallen after 4 seconds is 3.924.

( M = whatever the brick weighs it's not specified in the question)

(R = the distance from the ground or how high the scaffold is)

(hopefully you can just plug your numbers in there hope this helps)

Imagine you’re an engineer making a string of battery powered holiday lights. If a bulb burns out current cannot flow through th
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The 2 light bulbs can be connected in parallel to each other to avoid disconnection when one bulb burns out.

Explanation:

The parallel connection is required not series. A parallel connection is the connection of electronic components (e.g bulbs, LED, resistors, capacitors etc) in such a way that the same voltage is supplied across the ends of the components.  While in a series connection, the components are connected to each other end-to-end.

As regard the question, parallel connection ensures that the brightness any of the bulbs is not affected with respect to the other bulbs. And other bulbs continue to function when any burns out. The 2 light bulbs should be connected in parallel to the baterry to avoid disconnection of all the bulbs.

A rocket sled accelerates from 10 m/s to 40 m/s in 2 seconds. What is the average acceleration of the sled?
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

15m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 10m/s

Final velocity  = 40m/s

Time taken  = 2s

Unknown:

Average acceleration  = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time;

 Acceleration  = \frac{Final velocity   -  Initial velocity }{time}  

  Acceleration = \frac{40 - 10}{2}    = 15m/s²
