Which way does wind blow,

light travels approximately 982,080,000 ft/s, and one year has approximately 32,000,000 seconds. A light year is the distance li

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The distance traveled in 1 year is: $3.143*10^{16}ft$

Explanation:

Given

$s = 982,080,000 ft/s$ --- speed

$t = 32,000,000 s$ --- time

Required

The distance traveled

This is calculated as:

$Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}$

So, we have:

$Distance = Speed * Time$

This gives:

$Distance = 982,080,000 ft/s * 32,000,000 s$

$Distance = 982,080,000 * 32,000,000ft$

$Distance = 3.143*10^{16}ft$ -- approximated

What is the density of a cube that has a mass of 3.75 g and a volume of 3 mL?

valina [46]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \rho=1.25\ g/ml$

Explanation:

<u>Density </u>

The density of a substance is the mass per unit volume. The density varies with temperature and pressure.

The formula to calculate the density of a substance of mass (m) and volume (V) is:

$\displaystyle \rho=\frac{m}{V}$

The cube has a mass of m=3.75 g and a volume of V=3 ml, thus the density is:

$\displaystyle \rho=\frac{3.75\ g}{3\ ml}$

$\boxed{\displaystyle \rho=1.25\ g/ml}$

Since 1 kg=1000 mg and 1 lt = 1000 ml, the density has the same value but with different units:

$\displaystyle \rho=1.25\ kg/l$

Heat transfers energy from a hot object to a cold object. Both objects are isolated from their surroundings. The change in entro

aniked [119]

To develop this problem we will start from the definition of entropy as a function of total heat, temperature. This definition is mathematically described as

$S = \frac{Q}{T}$

Here,

Q = Total Heat

T = Temperature

The total change of entropy from a cold object to a hot object is given by the relationship,

$\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T_{cold}}-\frac{Q}{T_{hot}}$

From this relationship we can realize that the change in entropy by the second law of thermodynamics will be positive. Therefore the temperature in the hot body will be higher than that of the cold body, this implies that this term will be smaller than the first, and in other words it would imply that the magnitude of the entropy 'of the hot body' will always be less than the entropy 'cold body'

Change in entropy $\Delta S_{hot}$ is smaller than $\Delta S_{cold}$

Therefore the correct answer is C. Will always have a smaller magnitude than the change in entropy of the cold object

What is the force acting on a 10kg object that accelerates from 5 m/s to 20 m/s in 5s?

vitfil [10]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

v= u + at

20 = 5 + a(5)

15= a(5)

a= 3 m/s²

Force = mass × acceleration

= 10 × 3

= 30 N

A fish finder uses a sonar device that sends 20,000-Hz sound pulses downward from the bottom of the boat, and then detects echoe

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: The minimum time between pulses (in fresh water)

= 0.3106 s

Explanation:

To calculate the speed of echoes sounds, we will use

Speed = 2x/t

Where x = distance and t = total time.

Please note that:

sound travels at 343 m/s in air. But it travels at 1,481 m/s in water (almost 4.3 times as fast as in air);

Total distance = 2 × 230 = 460m

Using speed of sound in water

1481 = 460/t

t = 460/1481

t = 0.3106
