The star Betelgeuse is about 600 light-years away.

If it explodes tonight, we won't know about it until 600 years from now. <em>(C)</em>

(Maybe it already has. If it exploded any time after the year 1419, we have no way to know it yet.)

<span> Using conservation of energy

Potential Energy (Before) = Kinetic Energy (After)

mgh = 0.5mv^2

divide both sides by m

gh = 0.5v^2

h = (0.5V^2)/g

h = (0.5*2.2^2)/9.81

h = 0.25m

Suppose a firm is producing 2,475 units of output by hiring 50 workers (W = $20 per hour) and 25 units of capital (R = $10 per h

Neko [114]

Answer

given,

firm is producing = 2,475 units

output by hiring 50 workers W = $20 per hour

25 units of capital R = $10 per hour

marginal product of labor = 40

marginal product of capital = 25

$\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c}=\dfrac{40}{25}$

$\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c}=\dfrac{8}{5}$

$\dfrac{W}{R}=\dfrac{20}{10}$

$\dfrac{W}{R}=2$

$\dfrac{MP_l}{MP_c} < \dfrac{W}{R}$

Firm is not minimizing the cost because the firm use more capital and less labor.

Why does it take more time for a larger sample of water to freeze?

Stels [109]

Answer:The greater the amount of water that there is it will take longer for the water to freeze because more heat has to be dissipated into the environment

valina [46]

The spring has been stretched 0.701 m

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is the potential energy stored in the spring due to its compression/stretching. It is calculated as

$E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$
