A radio wave travels 186,000 miles per second. How many kilometers will the wave travel in one microsecond? (1 mile = 1.61 km)

1 answer:

6 0

1) 1 second = 1000000 microseconds

2) 186000 / 1.61 = 115527.9503 Km

3) We use the equation:
Speed = distance / time

4) rearrange for distance by multiplying both sides by time to get;

Distance = speed x time

5) plug in the values:

Distance = 115527.9503 x 0.000001
= 0.1155279503 Km

State the type of acid secreted by the stomach.

Ahat [919]

The gastric chief cells of the stomach secrete enzymes for protein breakdown (inactive pepsinogen, and in infancy rennin). Hydrochloric acid activates pepsinogen into the enzyme pepsin, which then helps digestion by breaking the bonds linking amino acids, a process known as proteolysis.

Transform boundaries are places where plates slide sideways past each other. At transform boundaries lithosphere is neither created nor destroyed. Many transform boundaries are found on the sea floor, where they connect segments of diverging mid-ocean ridges. California's San Andreas fault is a transform boundary. So its true

Select the correct answer. Based on the reactivities of the elements involved, which reaction will form products that are more s

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer: The correct answer is option B.

Explanation: Reactivity of elements is defined as the tendency to loose or gain electrons.

These reactions are a type of single displacement reactions. A single displacement reaction is a type of reaction in which an element displaces another element in a chemical reaction. These are studied with the help of reactivity series.

The element which lies above in the reactivity series can easily displace the element which lies below in the reactivity series.

Option A: This reaction will not yield a stable product because Zinc lies below Aluminium in the reactivity series.

$AlBr_3+Zn\rightarrow \text{No reaction}$

Option B: This reaction will yield a stable product because Sodium lies above Calcium in the reactivity series.

$CaBr_2+2Na\rightarrow 2NaBr+Ca$

Option C: This reaction will not yield a stable product because Hydrogen lies below Magnesium in the reactivity series.

$MgBr_2+H_2\rightarrow \text{No reaction}$

Option D: This reaction will not yield a stable product because Calcium lies below Barium in the reactivity series.

$BaBr_2+Ca\rightarrow \text{No reaction}$

Option E: This reaction will not yield a stable product because barium lies below Lithium in the reactivity series.

$2LiBr+Ba\rightarrow \text{No reaction}$
