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

You're driving down the highway late one night at 22 m/s when a deer steps onto the road 38 m in front of you. Your reaction tim
sleet_krkn [62]

speed of the car is given on the road

v = 22 m/s

reaction time is given as

t = 0.50 s

now we can find the distance that it will move during this reaction time

d_1 = 22* 0.50 = 11 m

now the deceleration of the car is 10 m/s^2

so the distance that it will move before stop is given by

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

0^2 - 22^2 = 2*(-10)*d

d = 24.2 m

so the total distance that it require to stop is given as

d = 24.2 + 11 = 35.2 m

while the deer is standing at distance 38 m

so the car will stop 2.8 m before the position of deer

A lab assistant drops a 400.0-g piece of metal at 100.0°C into a 100.0-g aluminum cup containing 500.0 g of water at In a few mi
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

2274 J/kg ∙ K

Explanation:

The complete statement of the question is :

A lab assistant drops a 400.0-g piece of metal at 100.0°C into a 100.0-g aluminum cup containing 500.0 g of water at 15 °C. In a few minutes, she measures the final temperature of the system to be 40.0°C. What is the specific heat of the 400.0-g piece of metal, assuming that no significant heat is exchanged with the surroundings? The specific heat of this aluminum is 900.0 J/kg ∙ K and that of water is 4186 J/kg ∙ K.

m_{m} = mass of metal = 400 g

c_{m} = specific heat of metal = ?

T_{mi} = initial temperature of metal = 100 °C

m_{a} = mass of aluminum cup = 100 g

c_{a} = specific heat of aluminum cup = 900.0 J/kg ∙ K

T_{ai} = initial temperature of aluminum cup = 15 °C

m_{w} = mass of water = 500 g

c_{w} = specific heat of water = 4186 J/kg ∙ K

T_{wi} = initial temperature of water = 15 °C

T = Final equilibrium temperature = 40 °C

Using conservation of energy

heat lost by metal = heat gained by aluminum cup + heat gained by water

m_{m} c_{m} (T_{mi} - T) = m_{a} c_{a} (T - T_{ai}) + m_{w} c_{w} (T - T_{wi} ) \\(400) (100 - 40) c_{m} = (100) (900) (40- 15) + (500) (4186) (40 - 15)\\ c_{m} = 2274 Jkg^{-1}K^{-1}

Consider the system consisting of the box and the spring, but not Earth. How does the energy of the system when the spring is fu
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.

Explanation:

For this comparison let's use the conservation of energy theorem.

Starting point. Compressed spring

         Em₀ = K_e = ½ k x²

Final point. When the box hits the ground

         Em_f = K = ½ m v²

since friction is zero, energy is conserved

          Em₀ = Em_f

          1 / 2k x² = ½ m v²

          v = \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }     x

Therefore, the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.

An 11.0 -W energy-efficient fluorescent lightbulb is designed to produce the same illumination as a conventional 40.0-W incandes
yarga [219]

The amount or cost that the user of the energy-efficient bulb save during 100h of use will be $0.319.

<h3>How to calculate the cost?</h3>

For the 11.0W bulb, it should be noted that the value will be:

= 11.0 × 100 × (1/1000) × 0.110

= $0.121

The 40W bulb will be:

= 40 × 100 × (1/1000) × 0.110

= $0.44

Therefore, the amount that will be saved will be:

= $0.44 - $0.121

= $0.319
