Kepler-186f is an exoplanet that orbits a star other than the Sun. Its star is the red dwarf Kepler-186. It is the first planet

to be discovered that orbits its star at a distance similar to Earth’s distance from the Sun. If Kepler-186f is approximately 5.4 x 1010 meters from Kepler-186, how long does it take for light from the star to reach the exoplanet? The speed of light is 3.0 x 108 m/s

Answer:

180seconds

Explanation:

According to the question, Kepler-186f is an exoplanet that orbits a star called kepler-186, other than the Sun.

Distance of the star (kepler-186) away from the planet is 5.4 x 10^10 meters

In order to calculate how long i.e. time, a light moving at an average speed of 3.0 x 10^8 m/s will get to the exoplanet from the star, we use;

Speed (m/s) = Distance (m) ÷ time (s)

Time = Distance/speed

Time = 5.4 x 10^10 ÷ 3.0 x 10^8

Time = 5.4/3.0 × 10^ (10-8)

Time = 1.8 × 10^2

Time = 180seconds.

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Bb ll for the black short-legged horse

bb Ll for the brown long-legged horse

bb ll for the offspring

Explanation:

In order for the offspring to have the two recessive traits, the parents must have been carrying the recessive genes on at least 1 allele. The first horse is black, but it must have a little b for the offspring to gain a little b from it. The second horse and the offspring are brown, so they must both have two little b's. The same goes for the length of the legs. The first horse and offspring must have two little l's because they have short legs and the second horse must have 1 little l in order for the offspring to inherit 1.
