Answer:

a). 1.28333 seconds

b). 186.66 seconds

Explanation:

a). Given :

Distance between the earth and the moon, d = $3.85 \times 10^8$ m

Speed of the radio waves, c = $3 \times 10^8$ m/s

Therefore the time required for the voice of Neil Armstrong to reach the earth via radio waves is given by :

$t=\frac{d}{c}$

 $=\frac{3.85 \times 10^8}{3 \times 10^8}$

 = 1.28333 seconds

b). Distance between Mars and the earth, d = $5.6 \times 10^{10}$ m

   Speed of the radio waves, c = $3 \times 10^8$ m/s

So, the time required for his voice to reach earth is :

$t=\frac{d}{c}$

 $=\frac{5.6 \times 10^{10}}{3 \times 10^8}$

 = 186.66 seconds

Here in nuclear reaction we can say that sum of neutrons and protons in reactant side and product side will be same always

Here mass number on the product side is given to us

so sum of mass number is given as

A_1 + A_2 = 265 + 1 = 266

now on the reactant side also the number must be same

A_1' + A_2' = 58 + x

now we will have

58 + x = 266

x = 208

Now number of protons on product side is given as

P_1 + P_2 = 108 + 0

now we also know that atomic number of Fe is 26

so now we will have

P_1' + P_2' = 108

26 + P_2' = 108

P_2' = 82

now the equation is given as

_{26}^{58}Fe + _{82}^{208}Pb = _{108}^{266}Hs + _0^1X

The property of matter that determines the direction of heat flow is the
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Temperature

Explanation:

The heat flows from high temperature to low temperature.So we can say that temperature is the property that decide the direction of heat flow.Like in the electric system current flow high voltage to low voltage ,so we can say that voltage is the property which determine the direction of current flow.

So the answer is Temperature.

A 3.04 kg particle is located on the x-axis at xm = −8 m, and a 5.61 kg particle is on the x-axis at xM = 3.56 m. Find the coord
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

center of mass = −0.50 m

Explanation:

given data

mass m1 = 3.04 kg

distance xm = -8 m

mass m2 = 5.61 kg

distance xM = 3.56 m

solution

we get here center of mass for n mass of system that is express as

center of mass = \frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2......m_nx_n}{m_1+m_2...m_n}     ......................1

but we have only 2 particle system so we will get

center of mass = \frac{m1 \times xm+m2 \times xM}{m1+m2}      .................2

put here value and we will get

center of mass = \frac{3.04 \times (-8 )+5.61 \times 3.56}{3.04 + 5.61}

solve it we will get

center of mass = −0.50 m

Choose the items that help to fully describe voltage.
Zina [86]

Answer:

the easy way to describe this is to use a light as an example.

Explanation:

Voltage is pretty much the loop used to help use a lightbulb to emit light. Without voltage, we would be unable to use lightbulbs. This applies to much more than a lightbulb, but it's the easiest way to describe how voltage works.
