Answer:

16.67m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance Pete drove  = 300m

Time taken  = 18s

Unknown:

Speed  = ?

Solution:

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

   Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

Insert the parameters and solve;

  Speed  = \frac{300}{18}  = 16.67m/s

radar wave is transmitted and later reflected off an aircraft and recieved 1.4×10^3 sec after being sent out. how far is the air
lutik1710 [3]

I think there's a typo because the answer I'm getting is very large.

This is what I'm getting

--------------------------------------

c = speed of light

c = 3.0 x 10^8 m/sec approximately

This is roughly 300 million meters per second

The time it takes the signal to reach the aircraft and come back is 1.4 x 10^3 seconds. Half of this time period is going one direction (say from the radar station to the aircraft), so (1.4 x 10^3)/2 = 7.0 x 10^2 seconds is spent going in this one direction.

distance = rate*time

d = r*t

d = (3.0 x 10^8) * (7.0 x 10^2)

d = (3.0*7.0) x (10^8*10^2)

d = 21.0 x 10^(8+2)

d = 21.0 x 10^10

d = (2.1 x 10^1) * 10^10

d = 2.1 x (10^1*10^10)

d = 2.1 x 10^11 meters

d = 210,000,000,000 meters (this is 210 billion meters; equivalent to roughly 130,487,950 miles)

Why is acceleration not constant near the speed of light
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

because when an object approaches the speed of light, it's mass starts to increase exponentially, and would be infinite at the speed of light. It would therefore require MORE than an infinite amount of energy to accelerate even a single electron to the speed of light
