Answer: Distance

Explanation:

 Distance is the unit of the light year and we can measure the light year by using the distance measurement. In one year, the light can travel at the velocity of 300000 km (Kilometer) in each seconds. Therefore, in every one year, they can travel 10 trillion kilometers.

Light year is also denoted as ly and it travel in one year at the empty space. The distance of the stars are generally measured in the light year as the objects in the space are mostly far away and they are using the small distance unit like astronomical unit.

What is the correct answer?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

B) x^2+6x+8

Explanation:

x-4 | x^3+2x^2-16x-32

    -  x^3-4x^2             <-- (x-4)(x^2)

_________________

              6x^2-16x-32

           -  6x^2-24x     <-- (x-4)(6x)

_________________

                          8x-32

                       -  8x-32 <- (x-4)(8)

___________________________

                                 0 | x^2+6x+8

This means the answer is B) x^2+6x+8

How can we magnetise a piece of iron.
liq [111]
Place the magnet at one end of the piece of metal. The magnet must make as much contact with the metal as possible. Place light pressure on the magnet and rub the metal in one direction only. Magnetization will take some time to accomplish so continue rubbing until the iron or steel attracts other pieces of metal.

In an attempt to reduce the extraordinarily long travel times for voyaging to distant stars, some people have suggested travelin
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

a) v=0.999124c

b) E=7.566*10^{22}

c) E_a=760 times\ larger

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Distance to Betelgeuse d_b=430ly

Mass of Rocket M_r=20000

Total Time in years traveled T_d=36years

Total energy used by the United States in the year 2000 E_{2000}=1.0*10^20

Generally the equation of speed of rocket v mathematically given by

v=\frac{2d}{\triangle t}

v=860ly/ \triangle t

where

\triangle t=\frac{\triangle t'}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\frac{36}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\sqrt{(860)^2+(36)^2}

\triangle t=860.7532

Therefore

v=\frac{860ly}{ 860.7532}

v=0.999124c

b)

Generally the equation of the energy E required to attain prior speed mathematically given by

E=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(v/c)^2} }-1(20000kg)(3*10^8m/s)^2

E=7.566*10^{22}

c)Generally the equation of the energy E_a required to accelerate the rocket mathematically given by

E_a=\frac{E}{E_{2000}}

E_a=\frac{7.566*10^{22}}{1.0*10^{20}}

E_a=760 times\ larger
