Answer:
Proxima Centuri is 9 orders of magnitude further from New York compared to Perth
Explanation:
Distance of Proxima Centuri to New York = 4 × 10^16 meters
Distance of Proxima Centuri to Perth = 11000 miles
Since 1 mile = 1609 meters, distance to Perth in meters = 11000 × 1609
Distance to Perth = 17699000 = 1.7699 × 10^7 meters
Order of magnitude of the distances of Proxima Centuri to New York and Perth = 10^16/10^7
Order of magnitude = 10^9
Therefore, Proxima Centuri is 9 orders of magnitude further from New York compared to Perth.
Jackie is the fastest student. (Option A)
Explanation:
- From the table it was understood that their speeds are given in meter per second, that is how many meters they run in one second. It was again shown that Jackie's race speed is 5.3 meter per second and all the other three namely Jeremy's speed is 3.9 meter per second, Mike's speed is 4.1 meter per second and finally Niki's speed is 3.8 meter per second.
- So, by comparing with others Jackie is the fastest runner in that race.
