  • side of cube=4cm

Area=side^2=4^2=16cm^2=0.0016m^2

  • Force=144N

\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=\dfrac{Force}{Area}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=\dfrac{144}{0.0016}

\\ \sf\longmapsto Pressure=90000Pa

A space probe produces a radio signal pulse. If the pulse reaches Earth 12.3 seconds after it is emitted by the probe, what is t
adoni [48]

Answer:

Distance = 3.69 × 10^9 m

The distance from the probe to Earth is 3.69 × 10^9 m

Explanation:

Distance from the probe to the Earth can be derived using the simple motion formula;

Distance = speed × time .....1

Since a radio signal uses an electromagnetic wave to transfer signal, it has the same speed as the speed of light.

Speed of radio signal = speed of light = 3.0 × 10^8 m/s

time taken to reach the earth = 12.3 seconds

Substituting the values of speed and time into equation 1;

Distance = 3.0 × 10^8 m/s × 12.3 s

Distance = 36.9 × 10^8 m

Distance = 3.69 × 10^9 m

Note: all electromagnetic radiation have the same speed which is equal to 3.0 × 10^8 m/s

How can we protect space shuttles or astronauts from space radiation in the absence of the atmospheric layer?
Arisa [49]
Earth's protective magnetic bubble, called the magnetosphere, deflects most solar particles, but in the absence of atmospheric layer, Polyethylene is a good shielding material because it has high hydrogen content, and hydrogen atoms are good at absorbing and dispersing radiation.

The Earth’s atmospheres are kept in place by gravity. The air near the ground is pulled on by gravity and compressed by the air higher in the sky. This causes the air near the ground to be denser and creating different layers with different qualities in which are the atmosphere.

Hope that helps ^^

How would you determine how much error there is between a vector addition and the real results
chubhunter [2.5K]
Desired operation: A + B = C; {A,B,C) are vector quantities. 

<span>Issue: {A,B} contain error (measurement or otherwise) </span>

<span>Objective: estimate the error in the vector sum. </span>

<span>Let A = u + du; where u is the nominal value of A and du is the error in A </span>
<span>Let B = v + dv; where v is the nominal value of B and dv is the error in B </span>
<span>Let C = w + dw; where w is the nominal value of C and dw is the error in C [the objective] </span>

<span>C = A + B </span>

<span>w + dw = (u + du) + (v + dv) </span>

<span>w + dw = (u + v) + (du + dv) </span>

<span>w = u+v; dw = du + dv </span>

<span>The error associated with w is the vector sum of the errors associated with the measured quantities (u,v)</span>

Match the boundary with its characteristic
kondor19780726 [428]
<span>Matching the boundary with its characteristics 1. Convergent - C. Compression 2. Divergent - B. Along ocean ridges 3. Transform - A. Along strike-slip faults The compression that occur in the convergent boundary causes the reverse fault in the earth crust. So in the divergent boundary two crust plates move apart causing a normal fault along the ocean ridges. The faults in the transform boundary happens at the place where plates slide laterally.</span>

What is meant by specific latent heat of vaporization of water is -2.26mjkg^-1 or -2.26mj/kg?​
Otrada [13]

Answer:

The specific latent heat of a substance is the amount of energy required to change the state of one kilo of the substance without change in it temperature.The latent heat of vaporization or evaporation is the heat given to some mass to convert if from the liquid to the vapor phase.
