Answer:

t = 4.17 hours

Explanation:

given,

The distance between Sun and Neptune, d = 4.5 billion Km

                                                                         = 4.5 x 10⁹ Km

                                                                          = 4.5 x 10¹¹ m

The velocity of light, c = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The velocity is always equal to displacement by the time.

                                           <em>V = d / t    m/s</em>

∴                                           t = d / V

                                               = 4.5 x 10¹¹ m / 3 x 10⁸ m/s

                                               = 15,000 s

                                               = 4.17 h

Hence, the time taken by the light rays to reach the Neptune is, t = 4.17 h

A body of volume 2000 cm3 has a mass 4 kg. Find the density of the body. Will the body sink or float in water, if the density of
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

2 g/cm^3, it will sink

Explanation:

The density of an object is given by

d=\frac{m}{V}

where

m is the mass of the object

V is its volume

For the body in the problem, we have

m = 4 kg = 4000 g

V=2000 cm^3

Therefore, its density is

d=\frac{4000}{2000}=2 g/cm^3

And the object will sink in water, because its density is larger than that of water, which is 1 g/cm^3. (an object sinks when its density is larger than that of water, otherwise it floats).

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Decreases ,,clockwise

Explanation:

         When  the switch is reopened then magnitude  of magnetic  flux through the   loop will decreases and  the direction of induced  current will  be clockwise  (when seen from clockwise.

So the  answer of the  fill in the  blank is decreases and  clockwise.

Answer - B  and B.

              B)  Decreases ,B)clockwise
