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.

Answer:

Explanation:

All the displacement will be converted into vector, considering east as x axis and north as y axis.

5.3 km north

D = 5.3 j

8.3 km at 50 degree north of east

D₁= 8.3 cos 50 i + 8.3 sin 50 j.

= 5.33 i + 6.36 j

Let D₂ be the displacement which when added to D₁ gives the required displacement D

D₁ + D₂ = D

5.33 i + 6.36 j + D₂ = 5.3 j

D₂ = 5.3 j - 5.33i - 6.36j

= - 5.33i - 1.06 j

magnitude of D₂

D₂²= 5.33² + 1.06²

D₂ = 5.43 km

Angle θ

Tanθ = 1.06 / 5.33

= 0.1988

θ =11.25 ° south of due west.

emmasim [6.3K]

H2O2 H2O

H2 + O2 → H2O. Word equation: Hydrogen gas + Oxygen gas → water. Type of Chemical Reaction: For this reaction we have a Combination reaction. Balancing Strategies: For this reaction it is helpful to start by changing the coefficient in front of H2O and so that you have an even number of oxygen atoms.

Identify which best describes the energy used to pluck guitar strings to make sound.
Novay_Z [31]
<span>The correct answer is: Mechanical Energy

Explanation:
As the guitar strings are plunked, the potential energy stored in the strings has an ability to make them vibrate. When the strings are vibrating, that potential energy is actually converted to the kinetic energy. Hence, the whole phenomena contains both the kinetic energy and the potential energy. The sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy is called Mechanical energy. Therefore, the correct answer is Mechanical Energy.</span>

A person carries a plank of wood 2.00 m long with one hand pushing down on it at one end with a force f1 and the other hand hold
slega [8]

Answer:


F₁ = 4,120.2 N


F₂ = 3,924N


Explanation:



1) Balance of angular momentum around the end where F₁ is applied.


F₂ × 0.5m - F₁ × 0 = mass × g × 1m


⇒ F2 × 0.5 m= 20 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 1 m = 1,962 N×m


F₂ = 196.2 Nm / 0.5m = 3,924 N


2) Balance of forces


F₁ - F₂ = mg


F₁ = F₂ + mg = 3,924N + 20kg (9.81 m/s²) = 4,120.2 N
