The fastest thing in the whole universe is the speed of light in a vacuum. The speed is around 2.99 * 10^{8} . It is fastest in vacuum as vacuum does not contain any dust particles and is a hollow space so light travels faster. It also has a refractive index of 1 so it travels faster.

After vacuum light travels faster in air. Air has a refractive index of 1.0003.

After air, it travels faster in water. The speed is about 3/4 of its speed in a vacuum, or 225,000,000 meters per second. Speed slows in water because photons interact with atoms, which repeatedly absorb and re-emit them to the same direction. The refractive index of water is 1.33.

Baseball player A bunts the ball by hitting it in such a way that it acquires an initial velocity of 1.3 m/s parallel to the gro
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

cSep 20, 2010

well, since player b is obviously inadequate at athletics, it shows that player b is a woman, and because of this, she would not be able to hit the ball. The magnitude of the initial velocity would therefore be zero.

First you need to solve for time by using

d=(1/2)(a)(t^2)+(vi)t

1m=(1/2)(9.8)t^2 vertical initial velocity is 0m/s

t=.45 sec

Then you find the horizontal distance traveled by using

v=d/t

1.3m/s=d/.54sec

d=.585m

Then you need to find the time of player B by using

d=(1/2)(a)(t^2)+(vi)t

1.8m=(1/2)(9.8)(t^2) vertical initial velocity is 0

t=.61 sec

Finally to find player Bs initial horizontal velocity you use the horizontal equation

v=d/t

v=.585m/.61 sec

so v=.959m/s

What happens when you compress a gas?
8090 [49]
The density increases.
When gases are compressed, their volume decreases, and the resulting pressure increases. The temperature will change if either P or V are held constant. Since the volume decreases, then density, or m/V, increases.
P×V ~ T

Imagine that there is a small rocky body caught by Earth’s gravity. Draw a comic-strip cartoon
vladimir1956 [14]

To create this comic strip you can use a narration describing each step and illustrate each one with one image or drawing.

Creating a comic strip involves using images and short texts to explain a specific idea or phenomenon. In the case of the process for a meteor to enter Earth you can use the following ideas.

  • A meteoroid approaches the Earth at high speed and draw a meteor traveling near to different planets and approaching Earth.
  • What is that? and draw the Earth wondering who or what is approaching.
  • The meteoroid enters the atmosphere of the Earth and becomes a meteor and draw the rocky body burning
  • The rocky body crashes with the surface becoming a meteorite and draw the zone where the meteorite crashed.
