Answer:
Use of telemetry and radar astronomy
Explanation:
An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.
After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.
The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.
A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured, once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using
distance = speed X time.
However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors
Answer:
547 m
Explanation:
From law of motion
s = ut + ½at²
Where "t" is Time taken to reach Earth
s= distance= 182 m
a= vertical acceleration = 5.82 m / s 2
U= initial velocity in vertical position = 0
182= ½ × 5.82t²
t²=( 2× 182)/ 5.82
= 364/5.82
= 62.54
t= √62.54
t= 7.908s
horizontal distance travelled = speed x time
Horizontal speed= 72.6 m / s
horizontal distance travelled =72.6× 7.908
= 547 m
Hence, the survivor will it hit the waves at 547 m away
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
volume = 6.3 × 10^-2 L
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
Volume = mass/density
Mass = 0.0565 Kg,
Density = 900 kg/m³
= 0.0565 kg/ 900 kg /m³
= 6.3 × 10^-5 M³
but; 1000 L = 1 m³
Hence, <u>volume = 6.3 × 10^-2 L</u>
It is talking about how from a different perspective things look different.
That picture should help.
