Answer:

670,000,000 mph

Explanation:

The speed of lightning. While the flashes we see as a result of a lightning strike travel at the speed of light (670,000,000 mph) an actual lightning strike travels at a comparatively gentle 270,000 mph

A hypothetical planet has a mass 2.81 times that of Earth, but the same radius.
patriot [66]

The acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet is 27.38 m/s².

<h3>Acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet</h3>

g = GM/R²

where;

  • G is universal gravitation constant
  • M is mass of the planet
  • R is radius of the planet
  • g is acceleration due to gravity = ?

g = (6.626 x 10⁻¹¹ x 2.81 x 5.97 x 10²⁴) / (6371 x 10³)²

g = 27.38 m/s²

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity near the surface of the planet is 27.38 m/s².

Water exits straight down from a faucet with a 1.96-cm diameter at a speed of 0.55 m/s. The volume flow rate of the water as it
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Q = 165.95 cm³ / s,  1)    v = \sqrt{0.55^2 + 19.6 y},  2)  v = 2.05 m / s,

3)  d₂ = 1.014 cm

Explanation:

This is a fluid mechanics exercise

1) the continuity equation is

         Q = v A

where Q is the flow rate, A is area and v is the velocity

         

the area of ​​a circle is

        A = π r²

radius and diameter are related

        r = d / 2

substituting

       A = π d²/4

       Q = π/4   v d²

let's reduce the magnitudes

       v = 0.55 m / s = 55 cm / s

let's calculate

       Q = π/4   55   1.96²

       Q = 165.95 cm³ / s

If we focus on a water particle and apply the zimematics equations

        v² = v₀² + 2 g y

where the initial velocity is v₀ = 0.55 m / s

        v = \sqrt{0.55^2 + 2  \ 9.8\  y}

        v = \sqrt{0.55^2 + 19.6 y}

2) ask to calculate the velocity for y = 0.2 m

        v = \sqrt{0.55^2 + 19.6 \ 0.2}

        v = 2.05 m / s

3) We write the continuous equation for this point 2

        Q = v₂ A₂

        A₂ = Q / v₂

let us reduce to the same units of the SI system

        Q = 165.95 cm³ s (1 m / 10² cm) ³ = 165.95 10⁻⁶ m³ / s

        A₂ = 165.95 10⁻⁶ / 2.05

        A₂ = 80,759 10⁻⁶ m²

area is

        A₂ = π/4   d₂²

        d₂ = \sqrt{4  A_2 / \pi }

        d₂ = \sqrt{ \frac{4 \ 80.759 \ 10^{-6} }{\pi } }

        d₂ = 10.14 10⁻³ m

        d₂ = 1.014 cm

The speed of light in vacuum is exactly 299,792,458 m/s. A beam of light has a wavelength of 651 nm in vacuum. This light propag
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

v=2.58\times10^8m/s

Explanation:

The index of refraction is equal to the speed of light c in vacuum divided by its speed v in a substance, or n=\frac{c}{v}. For our case we want to use v=\frac{c}{n}, which for our values is equal to:

v=\frac{c}{n}=\frac{299792458m/s}{1.16}=258441774.138m/s

Which we will express with 3 significant figures (since a product or quotient must contain the same number of significant figures as the measurement with the  <em>least</em> number of significant figures):

v=2.58\times10^8m/s
