Answer: 1) a = 9.61m/s² pointing to west.
2) (a) Δv = - 37.9km/s
(b) a = - 6.10⁷km/years
Explanation: Aceleration is the change in velocity over change in time.
1) For the plane:
a = 9.61m/s²
The plane is moving east, so velocity points in that direction. However, it is stopping at the time of 13s, so acceleration's direction is in the opposite direction. Therefore, acceleration points towards west.
2) Total change of velocity:
km/s
The interval is in years, so transforming seconds in years:
v =
km/years
Calculating acceleration:
Acceleration of an asteroid is a = -6.10⁷km/years .
Answer:
1497×10⁵ km
Explanation:
Speed of light in vacuum = 3×10⁵ km/s
Time taken by the light of the Sun to reach the Earth = 8 min and 19 s
Converting to seconds we get
8×60+19 = 499 seconds
Distance = Speed × Time
1 AU = 1497×10⁵ km
The Sun is 1497×10⁵ km from Earth
