Answer:
A cosmic year is 365.25 days, some times called a side real year and is just the time it takes for us to go round the sun once.
A light year is the distance light travels in a year. Now light travels at about 186,262 miles a Second! Which is not slow by any ones book.
An experiment was conducted just after Christmas a few years ago. Two girls were selected from the audience and went into two phone boxes a few feet apart. They could only hear each other via the phones. The phone call went to a ground station about 200 miles away, then up to a geostationary coms satellite, back to a ground station 1/3 of the way around the world, then repeated, with a third satellite before being sent from another ground station back to London and the other phone box. We the audience could hear both sides of the conversation from both boxes. And could hear the delay between sending and receiving. So even at the speed of light, there was about 1.5 seconds of delay. So because distances in space are so vast that saying a star is x millions of miles away causes problems, you run out of zero’s! So our nearest other star is about 4.5 light years away. Our sun (our nearest start) is about 8 light minuets away. Varies slightly as our orbit is not 100% cirular.
I HOPE THIS IS HELPFUL.
Answer:
l= 4 mi : width of the park
w= 1 mi : length of the park
Explanation:
Formula to find the area of the rectangle:
A= w*l Formula(1)
Where,
A is the area of the rectangle in mi²
w is the width of the rectangle in mi
l is the width of the rectangle in mi
Known data
A = 4 mi²
l = (w+3)mi Equation (1)
Problem development
We replace the data in the formula (1)
A= w*l
4 = w* (w+3)
4= w²+3w
w²+3w-4= 0
We factor the equation:
We look for two numbers whose sum is 3 and whose multiplication is -4
(w-1)(w+4) = 0 Equation (2)
The values of w for which the equation (2) is zero are:
w = 1 and w = -4
We take the positive value w = 1 because w is a dimension and cannot be negative.
w = 1 mi :width of the park
We replace w = 1 mi in the equation (1) to calculate the length of the park:
l= (w+3) mi
l= ( 1+3) mi
l= 4 mi
Here is the correct answer of the given question above. When a person steps forward out of a small boat onto a dock, the boat recoils backward in the water and this occurs because the total momentum of the system is conserved. Hope this helps.
