A laser is placed at the point $(3,5)$. The laser beam travels in a straight line. Larry wants the beam to hit and bounce off th

e $y$-axis, then hit and bounce off the $x$-axis, then hit the point $(7,5)$. What is the total distance the beam will travel along this path

Answer:

4units

Explanation:

To calculate the total distance the beam will travel along this path, you will use the formula for calculating the distance between two coordinates expressed as;

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

Given the coordinate points

(3,5) and (7,5)

Substitute

D = √(7-3)²+(5-5)²

D = √(7-3)²+0²

D = √4²

D = √16

D = 4

Hence the total distance the beam will travel along this path is 4units

What does the color of a star determine
Irina-Kira [14]
The color of light that a star emits is somewhat related to its age, whereas the color of light that we actually <em>observe</em> from a star is related to the speed at which it's moving with respect to us.

I have a voltage source of 12V but a light that only burns at 5V. The lamp works on 18 mA. Calculate the resistance that you EXT
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

Explanation:

Given;

Voltage source, E = 12 V

Voltage rating of the lamp, V = 5 V

Current through the lamp, I = 18 mA

Extra voltage or potential drop, IR =  E- V  

                                                    IR = 12 V - 5 V = 7 V

The resistance that will provide this potential drop (7 V) is calculated as follows:

IR = V

R = \frac{V}{I} = \frac{7 \ V}{18 \times 10^{-3} A} \ = 388.89 \ ohms

Therefore, the resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.
