A Canadian college student who has taken an astronomy class goes home for the holidays and persuades his parents to let him borr

ow the family car. When he returns, he finds that his parents are very angry with him, claiming he left the garage door open. Yet he remembers that he carefully closed the garage door with the electronic remote control in the car. After consulting with his astronomy instructor, he comes up with an alternative explanation for why the garage door is open. Which of the following is PART of that explanation?
a. The Sun was so bright and high in the sky in December in Canada that it got into his
parents' eyes
b. There was an eclipse of the Sun
c. It was a time of solar maximum, and there had been a big flare on the Sun earlier
d. No aurorae had been seen in the sky for many months
e. The number of sunspots had reached an all-time minimum
c. It was a time of solar maximum, and there had

Answer:

Option C, It was a time of solar maximum, and there had been a big flare on the Sun earlier

Explanation:

It was solar maximum due to which the amount of magnetic flux on the sun's surface rises up

This causes high frequency radio blackouts and interrupt with the communication on earth

Some times they also cause ripple effect in the electronic items as in the remote control used by the college student. They can disrupt the electronic communications.

Hence, option C is correct

The brightest star in the night sky in the northern hemisphere is Sirius. Its distance from Earth is estimated to be 8.7 light y
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:5.11(10)^{13}miles

Explanation:

A light year is a unit of length and is defined as "the distance a photon would travel in vacuum during a Julian year at the speed of light at an infinite distance from any gravitational field or magnetic field. "

In other words: It is the distance that the light travels in a year.  

This unit is equivalent to 5.879(10)^{12}miles, which mathematically is expressed as:

1Ly=5.879(10)^{12}miles

Doing the conversion:

8,7Ly.\frac{5.879(10)^{12}miles}{1Ly}=5.11(10)^{13}miles  This is the distance from Earth to Sirius in miles.

Assuming a typical efficiency for energy use by the body, how many slices of pizza must you eat to walk for 2.5 h at a speed of
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

2.7 Pizzas.

Explanation:

The power required to walk through 5km in 1 hour is 380W.

A watt is basically Jules per second, then we need to standardized this measurement to second.

5km/hr is equal to,

\frac{5km}{hr}*\frac{1hr}{3600s}*\frac{1000m}{1km}=1.389m/s

Walking by 2.5 hours is equal to a distance of,

d=v*t=1.389*(2.5*3600) = 12500m

The total energy required then would be,

E = \frac{380J}{1.389m/s}(12500)=3.4199*10^6J

Then we know that one pizza slice gives 1260*10^3J of energy, the total pizza needed are,

\eta = \frac{3.4199*10^6}{1260*10^3} = 2.7142

<em>Then you need to buy 3 pizza.</em>
