Answer:
The canon B hits the ground fast.
Explanation:
Given that,
Speed of cannon A = 85 m/s
Speed of cannon B= 100 m/s
Speed of cannon C = 75 m/s
We need to calculate the cannonballs will hit the ground with the greatest speed
Using conservation of energy
The final kinetic energy of canon depends on initial kinetic energy and potential energy.
The final velocity depends upon initial velocity and initial height.
So, the initial velocity of canon B is high.
Hence, The canon B hits the ground fast.
C. A cold front that came through does not affect the climate of an area.
We know that the source of light in the universe is the Sun. Hence, the light we see as moonlight travels from the Sun's surface, to the moon, then to Earth. So, before being able to solve this problem, we have to know the distance between the Sun and the moon, and the distance between the moon and Earth. In literature, these values are 3.8×10⁵ km (Sun to moon) and 384,400 km (moon to Earth). Knowing that the speed of light is 300,000 km per second, then the total time would be
Time = distance/speed
Time = (3.8×10⁵ km + 384,400 km)/300,000 km/s
Time = 2.548 seconds
Thus, it only takes 2.548 for the light from the Sun to reach to the Earth as perceived to be what we call moonlight.
Answer:
Option C. Light waves can travel through space, sound waves cannot.
Explanation:
Light is an electromagnetic wave which requires no Meduim for propagation. However, sound wave requires a medium for propagation. Since space is empty, sound can not travel through it.
