How many nanoseconds does it take light to travel 3.50 ft in vacuum??

Physics
1 answer:
Tresset [83]4 years ago
8 0

light speed in vacuum = 3.8 * 10^8

Distance (Given) = 3.5 ft

now, time = distance/speed = 3.50 / 3.8 * 10^8 = 9.21 * 10^-9 s = 9.21 nanoseconds

So, your answer is 9.21 nano-seconds...

4. A vehicle
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Average acceleration, a=2.77\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = 0 km/h

Final velocity, v = 100 km/h = 27.77 m/s

Time, t = 10 s

We need to find the average acceleration of the vehicle. It is given by the change in velocity divided by time. Som,

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{27.77-0}{10}\\\\a=2.77\ m/s^2

So, its average acceleration is 2.77\ m/s^2.

In this problem, you will analyze a system composed of two blocks, 1 and 2, of respective masses m1 and m2. To simplify the anal
storchak [24]

Answer:

c. Both forces have equal magnitudes.

Explanation:

According to Newton´s 3rd Law, the force exerted by a body on another one , is equal and opposite to the one that the second object exerts on the first one.

This does not depend on the masses of the objects, so it doesn´t matter that m₁ be greater than m₂.

As examples of this, we can mention the gravity force, the electrostatic force, the normal force, etc.

So, in this case, taking into account only the magnitudes, we can say:

F₁₂ = F₂₁

What is the acceleration caused by gravity of the planet Earth?
Luda [366]
The general accepted value of acceleration due to gravity, g, is 9.81 m/s^2.

That is an approximation because being the acceleration of gravity due to the attraction of the earth its magnitude will depend on the distance from the point to the center of the planet Earth.

The value of g is determined by using the Newton's Universal Law of gravity:

F = G * m of Earth * m of body / (distance^2)

Wehre {G* m of Earth / (distance^2) } = g

G is a universal constant = 6.67 * 10 ^ -11 N*m^2 / kg^2

m of Earth = 5.98 * 10 ^ 24 kg 

distance = radius of Earth + height of the body

Given the the Earth is not a perfect sphere the radius varies. Also the height of the body varies.

If you take a mean radius of Earth of 6.37*10^6 m

you get

g = 6.67*10^-11 N*m^2/kg^2 * 5.98*10^24kg / (6.37*10^6 m)^2 = 9.83 m/s^2

Again, if you want a more precise value of g, you need to find the exact place where you are and then use the right r.

If there is a doubt on a boundary call in tennis, you should do what?
Ronch [10]

Answer: Each player is responsible for all decisions in her half of the Court. She should be completely honest on all “calls” but, if in doubt, she should give her opponent the benefit of the doubt and play the ball as good. You should not play a let.
