Answer:

5 candela

Explanation:

Let the candle brightness be B

Let the distance be d

The candle brightness is inversely proportional to the distance

B α 1/d

B = k/d

If my candle has a brightness of 15 candela from a distance of 2 meter, then;

15 = k/2

k = 30

To get the brightness when the distance is 6m;

B = k/d

B = 30/6

B = 5 candela

Hence the brightness will be 5 candela

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: 11.17\ \text{ m/s}

Explanation:

Given : The escape velocity : v=2.5\times10\text{ miles per hour}

We know that 1 mile = 1609 meters  (approx)

and 1 hour= 3600 seconds

To convert escape velocity 2.5 x 10 miles per hour into m/s , we need to multiply it by 1609.34 and divide it by 3600.

Thus, the escape velocity in m/s is given by :-

v=2.5\times10\times\dfrac{1609}{3600}\\\\=11.1736111111\approx11.17\text{ m/s}

Hence, the speed in m/s = 11.17

The radioactive isotope U-238 has protons and neutrons.
Archy [21]

Answer:

92 protons, 146 neutrons

Explanation:

Uranium will always have the same amount of protons, because that is what defines the element. Uranium has 92 protons, meaning that the rest of the mass of the atom comes from neutrons. 238-92=146 neutrons. Hope this helps!

If the photon scatters in the backward direction, what is the magnitude of the linear momentum of the electron just after the co
Strike441 [17]
Momentum is a vector quantity, and is always conserved. Whenever a collision occurs between two objects, the objects behave under the principle of conservation of momentum. Therefore, if an object moves in the direction opposite to its original direction after a collision, then this indicates that the momentum of the colliding object was greater than the object under consideration.
