Answer:

240 seconds

Explanation:

Data Given:

Distance Radio travel to earth = 7.19 ×10⁷ km

Speed of this radio signal = 3.00 ×10⁸ m/s

Solution:

First convert Km to m

1 km = 1000 m

7.19 ×10⁷ km = 7.19 ×10⁷ x 1000 = 7.19 × 10¹⁰m

Formula used to calculate time

            Speed (S) = distance (d) / time (t)

rearrange above equation for time

            time (t) = distance (d) / Speed (S) . . . . . . . . .(1)

Put values in equation 1

            time (t) = 7.19 × 10¹⁰/ 3.00 ×10⁸ m/s

            time (t) = 240 s

So 240 seconds it take for the signal to reach the earth

Alchen [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The hydrostatic pressure is defined as the pressure that is exerted by a fluid at equilibrium at a given point within the fluid, due to the force of gravity, the formula is:

P = ρgh + P₀

Where:

ρ is density (1020kg/m³)

g is gravity (9,8m/s²)

h is depth (150m)

P₀ is the atmspheric pressure (101325 Pa)

Replacing, P = 1'600'725 Pa

I hope it helps!

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, when an object is acted on by an unbalanced force, how will that object respond?
marissa [1.9K]
Newton's Second Law states:
The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

since the net force and the acceleration ar directly proportional, as the net force increases the acceleration will increase.

hope this helps :)
