HELP PLS!!!! Light travels approximately 982,080,000 ft/s, and one year has approximately 32,000,000 seconds. A light year is th

e distance light travels in one year.
State the speed in ft/s, using scientific notation.

3.069 x 101 ft/s
9.8208 x 108 ft/s
3.0 x 1016 ft/s

You've already told us the speed in ft/s .  It's right there in the question.  You said that light travels about  982,080,000 ft/s.

We don't know how accurate that number is, but for purposes of THIS question, that's the number we're going with.

In scientific notation, it's written . . . <em>9.8208 x 10⁸ ft/s .</em>

We don't know where you were going with the number of seconds in a year.  But to answer the question that you eventually asked, it turned out that we don't even need it.

Ten students stand in a circle and are told to make a transverse wave. What best describes the motion of the students? Each stud
Bond [772]

Lifting hands and the down by one student at a time best describe the presentation of the transverse wave by students. Option D is correct.

<h3>What is a Transverse wave?</h3>
  • The wave in which the oscillation of particles is is perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer.

  • The students can make a transverse wave by raising their hands up and then down, one student at a time.

  • The raised hand represents the oscillation of particles while the sequence of the raising hand represents the direction of energy transfer.

Therefore, lifting hands and the down by one student at a time best describe the presentation of the transverse wave by students.

How is photon energy calculated? (choose 2)
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the wave model of light, physicists predicted that increasing light amplitude would increase the kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons, while increasing the frequency would increase measured current.

Contrary to the predictions, experiments showed that increasing the light frequency increased the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, and increasing the light amplitude increased the current.

Based on these findings, Einstein proposed that light behaved like a stream of particles called photons with an energy of \text{E}=h\nuE=hνstart text, E, end text, equals, h, \nu.

The work function, \PhiΦ\Phi, is the minimum amount of energy required to induce photoemission of electrons from a metal surface, and the value of \PhiΦ\Phi depends on the metal.

The energy of the incident photon must be equal to the sum of the metal's work function and the photoelectron kinetic energy:

Each bat can produce different frequencies of ultrasound. Explain why this is useful if there are many bats hunting together.
Crazy boy [7]

Answer: Although low frequency sound travels further than high-frequency sound, calls at higher frequencies give the bats more detailed information--such as size, range, position, speed and direction of a prey's flight. Thus, these sounds are used more often.
