The Earth orbits the Sun at a speed of 30 km/s. At that speed it completes one path around the Sun every year. Of course, as tha

t happens we are heading toward a different place in space constantly, always accelerating toward the Sun to stay on the circular path. Suppose at a paritcular instant we are headed in the direction of a distant star and we measure the speed of the light from that star as it arrives on Earth. In the vacuum of space we would measurea. 299,792,458 m/sb. 299,792,428 m/sc. 299,792,488 m/sd. 0 m/s

Answer:

a. 299,792,458 m/s

Explanation:

Since the speed of light in a vacuum is invariant and has the value of 299,792,458 m/s, we would measure this value of 299,792,458 m/s for the speed of light from the star as it arrives on Earth.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Q_T=63313.5\ J

Explanation:

Given:

  • temperature of skin, T_s=34^{\circ}C
  • initial temperature of steam vapour, T_v=100^{\circ}C
  • latent heat of steam, L=2256\ J.g^{-1}
  • mass of steam, m=25\ g
  • specific heat of water, c=4190\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}=4.19\ J.g^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • final temperature, T_f=34^{\circ}C

<em>Assuming that no heat is lost in the surrounding.</em>

<u>We know:</u>

Q=m.c.\Delta T

<u>Now the total heat given by the steam to form water at the given conditions:</u>

Q_T=Q_{Lv}+Q_w ..............................(1)

where:

Q_{Lv}= latent heat given out by vapour to form water of 100°C

Q_w= heat given by water of 100°C to come at 34°C.

putting respective values in eq. (1)

Q_T=m(L+c.\Delta T)

Q_T=25(2256+4.19\times 66)

Q_T=63313.5\ J

is the heat transferred to the skin.
