Answer:

v=6.7\times 10^9\ mi/hr

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s

We need to convert it into mi/hr.

Since, 1 mile = 1610 m

1 hour = 3600 s

So,

v=3\times 10^8\ \dfrac{m}{s}\\\\=3\times 10^8\ \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{1610}\ \text{miles}}{\dfrac{1}{3600}\ s}\\\\=6.7\times 10^9\ mi/hr

So, the required speed of light is 6.7\times 10^9\ mi/hr.

C9H20 +<br> 02 - &gt; CO2 +<br> H2O<br><br> what is the balanced equation of this
san4es73 [151]

Hey there!

C₉H₂O + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

First let's balance the C.

There's 9 on the left and 1 on the right. So, let's add a coefficient of 9 in front of CO₂.

C₉H₂O + O₂ → 9CO₂ + H₂O

Next let's balance the H.

There's 2 on the left and 2 on the right. This means it's already balanced.

C₉H₂O + O₂ → 9CO₂ + H₂O

Lastly, let's balance the O.

There's 3 on the left and 19 on the right. So, let's add a coefficient of 9 in front of O₂.

C₉H₂O + 9O₂ → 9CO₂ + H₂O

This is our final balanced equation.

Hope this helps!

Tisa makes a diagram to organize her notes about charging objects.
Amanda [17]
The answer is Electrons move between objects. The reason this is known is that the acts of friction and conduction (from the little picture he could not put in) involves contact to be known as friction and conduction. Without contact the electrons could not move between objects. I also got this question right on the test. That's how I know this is right. I hope this helps. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Answer:

84672 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 72 m

Combined mass (m) = 120 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Energy (E) =?

We can obtain the energy by using the following formula:

E = mgh

Where

E => is the energy.

g => is the acceleration due to gravity

m => is the mass.

h => is the height.

E = 120 × 9.8 × 72

E = 84672 J

Thus, the energy is 84672 J
