A laser pulse takes 2.56 seconds to travel from Earth to the Moon and return. Use this to calculate how far away the Moon is. Ho
Deffense [45]

Answer:

x = 3.84\times 10^{5}\,km

This delay affect conversations in the sense that recipient will be receive the message just 2.56 seconds after the message was sent.

Explanation:

The laser pulse has an ondulatory nature as electromagnetic wave, which can travel in the void. Speed of light is constant and distance between Earth and the Moon is:

x = 0.5\cdot c\cdot \Delta t

x = 0.5\cdot (3\times 10^{5}\,\frac{km}{s})\cdot (2.56\,s)

x = 3.84\times 10^{5}\,km

This delay affect conversations in the sense that recipient will be receive the message just 2.56 seconds after the message was sent.

A 1.2 kg block of wood hangs motionless from strings. A 50 gram bullet, traveling horzontally, strikes the block and becomes emb
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass of block m1 = 1.2 kg

mass of bullet m2 = 50 gram = 0.05 kg

combine speed V= 8.0 m/s

to find out

speed of the bullet before it hit the block

solution

we will apply here conservation of momentum that is

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V    .............1

here m1 is mass of block and m2 is mass of bullet and v1 is initial speed of block i.e 0 and v2 is initial speed of bullet and M is combine mass of block and bullet and V is combine speed of block and bullet

put all value in equation 1

m1 × v1 + m2 × v2 = M × V

1.2 × 0 + 0.05 × v2 = ( 1.2 + 0.05 ) × 8

solve it we get

v2 = 200 m/s

so speed of the bullet before it hit the block is 200 m/s
