There was a major collision of an asteroid with the Moon in medieval times. It was described by monks at Canterbury Cathedral in

England as a red glow on and around the Moon. How long (in s) after the asteroid hit the Moon, which is 3.58 ✕ 105 km away, would the light first arrive on Earth?

Answer:

1.28 s

Explanation:

The expression to find the distance traveled by light is,

d = ct

Here is distance is d,  v is the speed and t is the time.

Rearrange the expression for the time,

t = \frac{d}{c}

Substitute 3.58 x 10^{8} m for d and 3 .00 x 10^{8}  m/s  for c in the expression of time,

t = \frac{3.58 * 10^{8 } m  }{3.00 * 10^{8} m/s} = 1.28 s

Hence light will arrive at earth after.

1.28 s

At exactly 3:14PM, the velocity of a dog running in a park points toward a group of flowers. Which of the following best describ
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Options A, B, and C are all possible.

Explanation:

We know that the instantaneous velocity of the dog at 3:14PM is possitive to toward the flowers. But what about the acceleration to toward the flowers?

If the dog is decreasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is negative toward the flowers, hence (since F=ma) the net force points away from the flowers.

If the dog is increasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is positive toward the flowers, hence (since F=ma) the net force points toward the flowers.

If the dog is not increasing nor decreasing speed at 3:14PM, it means that acceleration is 0, hence (since F=ma) the net force is null and it does not point neighter to toward the flowers  nor away from the flowers. This happens when the forces acting on the dog are equal to both sides.

<u>C</u> is the correct answer, because energy cannot be created neither destroy. The energy is changing from chemical to from electric to light, and from light to heat.
