What conversion factor is needed to change from kilometers to meters?

Physics
1 answer:
ELEN [110]3 years ago
5 0

The conversion factor needed to change from kilometers to meters is

D) 1000

Explanation:

The meter (m) is the SI units to measure distance.

The kilometer (km) is a sub-unit, where the prefix 'kilo' stands for 10^3, or 1000. This means that:

1 km = 1000 m

Therefore, if we have a length expressed in kilometers, we just need to multiply by 1000 to get the corresponding length in meters.

For instance, if we have a length of

L = 3.47 km

To convert in meters, we do:

L = 3.47 km \cdot (1000 \frac{m}{km})=3470 m

An object's weight is dependent upon its location in the universe. Why is this true?
Bezzdna [24]

Because an object's weight is the measure of the gravitational
forces between the object and other things that have mass. 

In its travels around the universe, the object can be in the
neighborhood of other things with huge mass or tiny mass,
and it can be nearer to them or farther away from them.  So
the gravitational forces between the object and other things
can have widely different values in different places.

Read the choices very carefully. 
I think 'D' is the one that says this.

Jim strikes a 0.058 kg golf ball with a force of 272 N, giving it a velocity of 62.0 m/s. How long was the ball in contact with
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: 0.013 seconds

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of golf ball = 0.058 kg

Force = 272 N

Velocity = 62.0 m/s

Time taken = ?

Recall that force is the rate of change of momentum per unit time

i.e Force = Change in momentum / Time

i.e Force = (Mass x velocity) / Time

272N = (0.058 kg x 62.0 m/s) / Time

272N = 3.6kgm/s / Time

Time = (3.6kgm/s / 272N)

Time = 0.013 seconds

Thus, the ball was in contact with the club for 0.013 seconds

What is the torque about the center of the sun due to the gravitational force of attraction of the sun on the planet?
Anon25 [30]
Torque, moment, or moment of force is the tendency of a force to rotate an object around an axis,fulcrum, or pivot. Just as a force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a twist to an object. Mathematically, torque is defined as the cross product of the vector by which the force's application point is offset relative to the fixed suspension point (distance vector) and the force vector, which tends to produce rotational motion. So torque about the center of the sun due to the gravitational force of attraction of the sun on the planet = (Gxm1xm2 / r^2). r sin(theta) = Gxm1xm2 /r^2). r sin0° = 0

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

one ninth

Explanation:

d = 1 cm , v = v

D = 3d, V = ?

By the equation of continuity,

A V = a v

3.14 x D^2 / 4 x V = 3.14 x d^2 / 4 x v

9d^2 x V = d^2 x v

V = v / 9

Thus, the velocity becomes one ninth the initial velocity
