The average distance from Earth to the Moon is 384,000 km. In the late 1960s, astronauts reached the Moon in about 3 days. How f

ast (on average) must they have been traveling (in km/h) to cover this distance in this time? Compare this speed to the speed of a jet aircraft (800 km/h).

Answer:

They must have been traveling at 5333.33 km/h to cover that distance in 3 days.

That speed are 6,66 times higher than the speed of an aircraft jet.

Explanation:

d= 384000 km

t= 3 days = 3*24hr = 72hr

V= 384000km/72hr

V= 5333.33 km/h

comparison:

V1/V2= 5333.33/800

V1/V2= 6.66

Which of the following are basic principles that apply to circuits? Choose the 2 correct answers from the choices below.
marta [7]

The basic principles that apply to circuits is that electrons must receive energy from a source, and electrons transfer energy to perform some useful function.

<h3 /><h3>What is circuit?</h3>

Individual electronic components, like resistors, transistors, are connected by metallic wires or traces by which the electric current can flow to form a circuit design.

The basic principles that apply to circuits will be;

1. Electrons must receive energy from a source.

2. Electrons transfer energy to perform some useful function.

Hence, option 1 and 2 are correct.

Which choice correctly describes what happens during heating?
Masja [62]

Answer:

Option 4

Explanation:

During heating actually heat transfer takes place from a body at higher temperature to a body at lower temperature and the heat transfer takes place until both attain the same temperature  

Therefore heat transfer depends on the temperature of the systems

Now while comparing the thermal energies of the systems, if both the systems have same mass then the system which is at higher temperature has greater thermal energy when compared to the system which is at lower temperature

So in this case assuming that both the systems have same mass then the energy will leave the system with greater thermal energy and go into the system with less thermal energy as the system with greater thermal energy in this case will be at higher temperature and we are considering this assumption because thermal energy not only depends on temperature but also depends on mass of the system
