The speed of light in a vacuum is approximately 0.3 gm/s. What is the speed of light in meters per second?

We have to convert Gm/s to m/s.

As  1 \ Gm/s = 10^9 \ m/s

Therefore the speed of light in vacuum,

c = 0.3 \ Gm/s = 0.3 \times 10^9 \ m/s \\\\ c= 3 \times 10^8 \ m/s

Thus, the speed of light in m/s is 3 \times 10^8 \ m/s

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

0.20kg-m^2

Explanation:

Let the linear velocity of the rope(=of pulley) is v m/s

Using kinematic equation

=> v = u + at

=>v = 0 + 4.9a

=>v = 4.9a ------------ eq1

By v^2 = u^2 + 2as

=>v^2 = 0 + 2 x v/4.9 x 1.2

=>4.9v^2 - 2.4v = 0

=>v(4.9v - 2.4) = 0

=>v = 2.4/4.9 = 0.49 m/s

Thus by v = r x omega

=>omega = v/r = 0.49/0.02 = 24.49 rad/sec

BY W = F x s = 50 x 1.2 = 60 J

=>KE(rotational) = W = 1/2 x I x omega^2

=>60 = 1/2 x I x (24.49)^2

=>I = 0.20 kg-m^2

uysha [10]

Answer:

f = 692 N

Explanation:

given data:

f =800N

a =1.2 m s^{2}

m= 90 kg

from newton's second law

net force F_{net} =\sum F = F_1 +F_2 +..... = ma

therefore we have from above equationF_{net} = F -f = ma

ma =F - f

putting all value to get force of friction

1.2*90 = 800 - f

f = 692 N

An unknown material has a mass
atroni [7]

Answer: 1896.55J/kg°C

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) required to heat a material depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since,

Q = 1320 joules

Mass of material = 5.61kg

C = ? (let unknown value be Z)

Φ = 0.124°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

1320J = 5.61kg x Z x 0.124°C

1320J = 0.696kg°C x Z

Z = (1320J / 0.696kg°C)

Z = 1896.55 J/kg°C

Thus, the specific heat of the material is 1896.55J/kg°C
