Answer:

5.33*10^-3 seconds

Explanation:

c = d/t

c = speed of light constant (3.0*10^5 km/s)

d = distance (1600 km)

t = ?

3.0*10^5 = 1600/t

t = 1600/3.0*10^5

t = 5.33*10^-3 seconds

I hope this helped! :)

How is pressure measured? question 1 options: pressure is measured as force per inch. pressure is measured as force per gram. pr

natita [175]

Pressure is measured as force per unit area, which is the third option.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

Pressure is amount of force that is applied over a given area divided by the size of this area.

Pressure is calculated by multiplying the force applied on the object by the area covered.

Since force is measured in Newtons (N) and area is measured in m², the unit of pressure is Nm².

Therefore, pressure is measured as force per unit area.

A 7 kg ball is moving at a constant speed of 5 m/s. A force of 300 N is applied to the ball for 4 s. The new speed of the ball i

olasank [31]

Answer:

The new speed of the ball is 176.43 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the ball, m = 7 kg

initial speed of the ball, u = 5 m/s

applied force, F = 300 N

time of force action on the ball, t = 4 s

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

$F = ma = \frac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\m(v-u) = Ft\\\\v-u = \frac{Ft}{m}\\\\v = \frac{Ft}{m} + u$

where;

v is new speed of the ball

$v = \frac{Ft}{m} + u\\\\v =\frac{300*4}{7} + 5\\\\v = 176.43 \ m/s$

Therefore, the new speed of the ball is 176.43 m/s

A very hard rubber ball (m = 0.5 kg) is falling vertically at 4 m/s just before it bounces on the floor. The ball rebounds back

saw5 [17]

Answer:

The force exerted by the floor is 80 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of ball = 0.5 kg

Velocity= 4 m/s

Time t = 0.05 s

When the ball rebounds then the kinetic energy is

$K.E =\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where, m = mass of ball

v = velocity of ball

Put the value into the formula

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.5\times(4)^2$

$K.E = 4\ J$

The average force exerted by the floor on the ball = change in kinetic energy over collision time

$F = \dfrac{4}{0.05}$

$F=80\ N$

Hence, The force exerted by the floor is 80 N.

it takes a hose 4 minutes to fill a rectangular aquarium 9 inches long, 13 inces wide, and 14 inces tall. how long will it take

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: 43.58 min

Explanation:

Knowing the volume of a rectangular object is length x width x height, we have two volumes:

$V_{1}=(9 in)(13 in)(14 in)=1638 in^{3}$

$V_{2}=(21 in)(25 in)(34 in)=17850 in^{3}$

And we know it takes a time of 4 minutes to fill $V_{1}$ .

If we want to know how long will it take the same hose to fill another tank with volume $V_{2}$ , we can use the <u>Rule of three</u>, which is a mathematical rule to find out an amount that is with another quantity given in the same relation as other two also known:

$1638in^{3}$ ---- $4min$

$17850in^{3}$ ---- $?$

$?=\frac{(17850 in^{3})(4min)}{1638 in^{3}}$

Finally:

$?=43.58 min$
