600

mph

Velocity is the distance traveled in a given time, or

v

=

x

t

where

v

is velocity,

x

is distance and

t

is time.

Here,

x

=

3000

and

t

=

5.0

, so

v

=

x

t

=

3000

5

=

600

Don't forget units. Since the question's data is in miles and hours, the units will be miles per hour, or mph, so

3000

miles

5

hours

=

600

miles

hour

=

600

mph

Suppose that Hubble's constant were H0 = 51 km/s/Mly (which is not its actual value). What would the approximate age of the univ
bija089 [108]

Given the Hubble's constant, the approximate age of the universe is 5.88 × 10⁹ Years.

Given the data in the question;

Hubble's constant; H_0 = 51km/s/Mly

Age of the universe; t = \ ?

We know that, the reciprocal of the Hubble's constant ( H_0 ) gives an estimate of the age of the universe ( t ). It is expressed as:

Age\ of\ Universe; t = \frac{1}{H_0}

Now,

Hubble's constant; H_0 = 51km/s/Mly

We know that;

1\ light\ years = 9.46*10^{15}m

so

1\ Million\ light\ years = [9.46 * 10^{15}m] * 10^6 = 9.46 * 10^{21}m

Therefore;

H_0 = 51\frac{km}{\frac{s}{Mly} } = 51000\frac{m}{s\ *\ Mly}  \\\\H_0 = 51000\frac{m}{s\ *\ (9.46*10^{21}m)} \\\\H_0 =  5.39 *10^{-18}s^{-1}\\

Now, we input this Hubble's constant value into our equation;

Age\ of\ Universe; t = \frac{1}{H_0}\\\\t = \frac{1}{ 5.39 *10^{-18}s^{-1}} \\\\t = 1.855 * 10^{17}s\\\\We\ convert\ to\ years\\\\t =  \frac{ 1.855 * 10^{17}}{60*60*24*365}yrs \\\\t = \frac{ 1.855 * 10^{17}}{31536000}yrs\\\\t = 5.88 *10^9 years

Therefore, given the Hubble's constant, the approximate age of the universe is 5.88 × 10⁹ Years.

A 4kg block sitting on the floor, how much potential energy does it have?
prohojiy [21]

Well, there you have a very important principle wrapped up in that question.

There's actually no such thing as a real, actual amount of potential energy.
There's only potential <em><u>relative to some place</u></em>.  It's the work you have to do
to lift the object from that reference place to wherever it is now.  It's also
the kinetic energy the object would have if it fell down to the reference place
from where it is now.

Here's the formula for potential energy:    PE = (mass) x (gravity) x (<em><u>height</u></em><u>)</u> .

So naturally, when you use that formula, you need to decide "height above what ?"

If you're reading a book while you're flying in a passenger jet, the book's PE is
(M x G x 0 meters) relative to your lap, (M x G x 1 meter) relative to the floor of the
plane, (M x G x 10,000 meters) relative to the ground, and maybe (M x G x 25,000 meters)
relative to the bottom of the ocean.

Let's say that gravity is 9.8 m/s² .

Then a 4kg block sitting on the floor has (39.2 x 0 meters) PE relative to the floor
it's sitting on, also (39.2 x 3 meters) relative to the floor that's one floor downstairs,
also (39.2 x 30 meters) relative to 10 floors downstairs, and if it's on the top floor of
the Amoco/Aon Center in Chicago, maybe (39.2 x 345 meters) relative to the floor
in the coffee shop that's off the lobby on the ground floor.
