Answer:

250 light minutes takes

Explanation:

1 astonomical unit is equal to 1.50x10¹¹m

The light travels at the speed of 3.0x10⁸m/s. That means in 1 second, travels 3.0x10⁸m. To solve this question we must find the distance of neptune to the sun in meters. In this way we can find the seconds (And minutes) that need the light to travel from the sun to neptune:

<em>Distance from Sun to neptune:</em>

30AU * (1.50x10¹¹m / 1AU) = 4.5x10¹²m

<em>Time transcurred:</em>

4.5x10¹²m * (1s / 3.0x10⁸m) = 15000s

15000s * (1min / 60s) =

<h3>250 light minutes takes</h3>

Calculate the mass of 29.8 mL of aluminum, which has a density of 2.00 g/mL.
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>59.6 g </h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

Density of aluminum = 2.00 g/mL

volume = 29.8 mL

The mass is

mass = 2 × 29.8

We have the final answer as

<h3>59.6 g</h3>

Hope this helps you
