On the Moon's surface, lunar astronauts placed a corner reflector, off which a laser beam is periodically reflected. The distanc

e to the Moon is calculated from the round-trip time. The Earth's atmosphere slows down light. Assume the distance to the Moon is precisely 3.84 × 10 8 m 3.84×108 m , and Earth's atmosphere (which varies in density with altitude) is equivalent to a layer 25.0 km 25.0 km thick with a constant index of refraction n = 1.000293 n=1.000293 . What is the difference in travel time for light that travels only through space to the moon and back and light that travels through the atmosphere and space? difference in travel time:

)) What do these two changes have in common?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Both are only physical changes

Explanation:

A physical change is a change that does not involve or alter the chemical composition of the substances involved. Physical changes form no new substance and can be easily separated into individual constituents. Example of physical changes are change in state, boiling, melting etc.

According to this question, two processes were given as follows:

1. mixing chocolate syrup into milk

2. rain forming in a cloud

These two processes are similar in the sense that they are both examples of physical changes.

Choose all of the true statements regarding the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current. Current is measured in am
AveGali [126]

-- <u><em>Current is measured in amps.</em></u>  (You can use any symbol you want to represent current, but the most common one is " I ", not "Δ".)

-- <u><em>The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is mathematically defined by Ohm's Law. </em></u>

-- <u><em>Current is the flow of electrons through a circuit.</em></u>

-- (Ohm's Law is NOT mathematically represented by the equation V=I/R.)  <u><em>It should be V = I · R</em></u> .  

(When solving for Resistance in a circuit and both voltage and current are known values, the equation I =V*R is not true, and not the way to solve it.)  <u><em>If the resistance is what you're looking for, then the equation to use is  </em></u><u><em>R = V / I</em></u><u><em> .  </em></u>

<em>-- </em><u><em>If the voltage in a circuit is increased, the current will also increase.</em></u>

A block of mass m=9.0 kg and speed V and is behind a block of mass M= 27 kg and speed of .50 m/s. The surface is frictionless, a
sammy [17]

Answer:

2.06 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of linear momentum, the sum of momentum before and after collision are equal. Considering this case where we have frictionless surface, no momentum is lost in the process.

Momentum before collision

Momentum is given by p=mv where m and v represent mass. The initial sum of momentum will be 9v+(27*0.5)=9v+13.5

Momentum after collision

The momentum after collision will be given by (9+27)*0.9=32.4

Relating the two then 9v+13.5=32.4

9v=18.5

V=2.055555555555555555555555555555555555555 m/s

Rounded off, v is approximately 2.06 m/s
