Answer:

The answer is C.) 300,000,000 m/s

Explanation:

Light travels at a constant rate of 300,000,000 m/s. this can be determined by dividing the distance (144,000,000,000 meters) by the time (480 seconds). that's pretty fast. in fact, nothing can travel any faster than this. ever.

A runner starts at position zero and moves in one direction to position 12m 3. What is the distance traveled by the runner?
murzikaleks [220]

<u>Distance = 12 m</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Distance covered by the runner is same as the total path that he has ran. Here, a person starts at 0 position and goes in one direction to position 12 m. Since the initial point is 0 and the final position is 12, the total distance is calculated by adding the 2 points as: 0+12 = 12 m. So the distance covered and the displacement both are same which is 12 meters.

Distance traveled is the full length of the path covered between two points. It is not a vector and the direction is nil and no negative sign.  Example : The distance walked by the teacher is 3.0 m ,The distance walked by a passenger is 5.0 m. Also, the distance traveled need not be equal to the magnitude of the displacement which is the distance between the two positions.

A sprinter must average 24.0 mi/h to win a 100-m dash in 9.30 s. What is his wavelength at this speed if his mass is 84.5 kg?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Wavelength λ = 7.31 × 10^-37 m

Explanation:

From De Broglie's equation;

λ = h/mv

Where;

λ = wavelength in meters

h = plank's constant = 6.626×10^-34 m^2 kg/s

m = mass in kg

v = velocity in m/s

Given;

v = 24 mi/h

Converting to m/s

v = 24mi/h × 0.447 m/s ×1/(mi/h)

v = 10.73m/s

m = 84.5kg

Substituting the values into the equation;

λ = (6.626×10^-34 m^2 kg/s)/(84.5kg × 10.73m/s)

λ = 7.31 × 10^-37 m
