Complete question :

On average, light emitted from the Sun takes 8 minutes 19 seconds to reach Earth. Using your approximated speed of light from part (b), as well as the equation distance = rate x time, calculate the approximate distance from the Earth to the Sun in meters. Write your answer in standard form and in scientific notation.

Answer:

1.497 * 10^8km

149700000 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Time taken = 8 minutes 19 seconds

Speed of light = 3 * 10^8 m/s

Distance from earth to sun :

Speed * time

(3 * 10^8) * ((8 * 60) + 19)

(3 * 10^8) * 499

= 1497 * 10^8 m or 1497 * 10^5 km = 1.497 * 10^8km

= 149700000000 m

= 149700000 km

= 1497

What's the value of this python expression: (2**2) == 4?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Python will return:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The math function ** is an exponent indicator.

The equation you made was:
2^2 =4

When you run this in python, it will return as true.

It is run as a Boolean expression because you have already provided the answer to the expression with the "==" statement.

If you had provided an incorrect answer (setting it equal to any number other than 4), it would return False.

According to the Holy Bible, Jesus begins to perform healings. There were many healers during Jesus’ time. What made Jesus’ heal
Gekata [30.6K]

Healing was essential to the ministry of Jesus because He envisioned healing as a physical symbol of forgiveness. He guaranteed the ultimate glory of the human body through His personal resurrection, but forecast that restoration by healing twisted, shrunken, blinded limbs and organs. The paralytic's restoration is but one of many such examples (Mark 2:1-12).

Though there were many healers, Jesus was able to even raise up the dead, and also there was one instance where the Canaanite woman struggled through His disciples' desire to dismiss her, and His own initial, courteous refusal, to get what she knew she could trust Him to grant (Matthew 16:28). The crowds "begged him to let the sick just touch the edge of his cloak," (Matthew 14:36), for "all who touched him were healed."

Healers were not able to do that, and Jesus also claimed that he was God's son, so performing miracles like this was like proving the point. Also, healers were not always able to heal the person, but Jesus was able to do so all the time (for free even!) so many people traveled to meet him so he could heal them.

The woman with a hemorrhage crept silently through the crowd to merely touch His clothes (Mark 5:28). She also claimed that she went to many healers, but she didn't get healed, in fact, she got worse! So that's an instance that proves the point.

<em>Thank you :D</em>
