Answer:

Explanation:

Power (p)= 40 watt

time (t)= 3 minutes = 180 seconds

Energy (E)= ?

we know

P = E/t

40 = E / 180

E = 7200 Joules

Therefore it does 7200 joules of work.

hope it helps :)

Answer:

$D=1693742.7m$

Explanation:

For sound waves we have v=d/t where v is the speed of sound and d the distance between the astronauts, while for electromagnetic waves we have c=D/t where c is the speed of light and D the distance between the spaceship and Earth. <em>We have written both times as the same</em> because is what is imposed by the problem, so we have t=d/v=D/c, which means:

$D=\frac{dc}{v}$
