speed of signal = 299742 km/s

Explanation:

V=\frac{d}{t}

d= distance=928,000,000 km

t= time=51.6 min= 51.6 (60)= 3096 s

so v= 928,000,000/3096

v=299742 km/s

Un vas plin cu lichid cântăreşte 175kg. Ceea ce reprezintă de 5 ori masa vasului gol. Ştiind că volumul interior al vasului este
Mariana [72]

a) Density of the liquid: 823.5kg/m^3

b) Weight of the liquid: 1372 N

Explanation:

Translation of the text:

<em>"A full tank with liquid weighs 175kg. Which is 5 times the mass of the empty vessel. Knowing that the inside volume of the vessel is 0.17kl, calculate: </em>

<em>a) the density of the liquid; </em>

<em>b) the weight of the liquid."</em>

a)

We know that the full tank with liquid has a total mass of M = 175 kg. We can write the total mass as

M=m_L + m_V (1)

where

m_L is the mass of the liquid

m_V is the mass of the vessel

We also know that the total mass M is 5 times the mass of the empty vessel, so we have:

M=5m_V\\m_V=\frac{M}{5}=\frac{175}{5}=35 kg

which is the mass of the empty vessel.

Therefore, we can find the mass of the liquid only using (1):

m_L=M-m_V=175-35=140 kg

The density of the liquid is given by

d=\frac{m}{V}

where

m = 140 kg (mass of the liquid)

V = 0.170 kL = 170 L = 0.170 m^3 (volume of the liquid, which is equal to the volume of the vessel)

So we get

d=\frac{140}{0.170}=823.5kg/m^3

b)

The weight of a body is given by

F=mg

where

m is its mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

For the liquid in this problem, we have

m = 140 kg (mass)

g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration due to gravity)

Therefore, its weight is

F=(140)(9.8)=1372 N

a ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed of 40 m/s. how high is the ball above the ground when it stops
NISA [10]

Answer:

80m, assuming g=10m/s^2

Explanation:

40m/s will be reduced to 0m/s in 4 seconds. 4 seconds x 40m/s would be 160m up, but you will only get half of that because you decelerate linearly to 0m/s. This leaves you with 4 x 20 = 80m.
