Explanation:

Using properties of 30-60-90 triangles, the distance from the vase to the mirror is 2/√3, and the distance from the mirror to the girl is also 2/√3.  So the light travels a total distance of 4/√3 meters.

t = d / v

t = (4/√3 m) / (3×10⁸ m/s)

t = 7.7×10⁻⁹ s

The explanation for the following answer is explained below.

Explanation:

The sun is at an average distance of about 93,000,000 miles(150 million kilometers) away from the earth.It is so far away that light from the Sun,travelling at a speed of 186,000 miles (300,000 kilometers) per second, takes about 8 minutes to reach the earth.Earth does not travel around the Sun in a perfect circle.Instead its orbit is elliptical,like a stretched circle,with the sun just off the center of the orbit. At its closest,the Sun is 91.4 million miles (147.1 million kilometers ) away us.At its farthest ,the Sun is 94.5 million miles (152.1 million km) away.The Earth is closest to the Sun during winter in the northern hemisphere

E fundamental frequency of an open organ pipe corresponds to the middle c (261.6 hz on the chromatic musical scale). the third r
luda_lava [24]

The wavelength of the third resonance of the closed organ pipe is equal to the ratio between the speed of sound and the frequency of the 3rd harmonic:

\lambda_3 = \frac{c}{f_3}=\frac{343 m/s}{261.6 Hz} =1.31 m

The relationship between length of a closed pipe and wavelength of the standing waves inside is:

L=\frac{n}{4}\lambda_n

where n is the number of the harmonic. In this case, n=3, so the length of the pipe is

L=\frac{3}{4}(1.31 m)=0.98 m

PilotLPTM [1.2K]
The answer is : B. The compass will spin exactly 360 Degrees

Compass will point out to the earth's magnetic field. If we change the direction of the current , we created an effect which make the compass detect the magnetic field in the exact opposite direction, that is why it will flip exactly 180 degrees
