An ice cube would transfer heat to another object whose temperature
is lower than zero°C (32°F).
A block of "dry ice" is sitting there at a temperature of -78°C (-109°F).
An ice cube helps to melt dry ice nice and fast.
If you could find a block of solid nitrogen, its temperature would be
63K (-210°C, -346°F). An ice cube would transfer heat to that baby
so fast that it would instantly boil.
Well, the surface of still water has surface tension. If there isn't enough mass or weight to break the surface tension, the object will float.
Answer:
The maximum speed will be 26.475 m/sec
Explanation:
We have given mass of the toy m = 0.50 kg
radius of the light string r = 1 m
Tension on the string T = 350 N
We have to find the maximum speed without breaking the string
For without breaking the string tension must be equal to the centripetal force
So 
So 

v = 26.475 m /sec
So the maximum speed will be 26.475 m/sec
Answer:
Use of telemetry and radar astronomy
Explanation:
An astronomical Unit (AU) is a unit of measuring distances in outer space, which is based on the approximate distance between the earth and the Sun.
After several years of trying to approximate the distance between the Sun and the Earth using several methods based on geometry and some other calculations, advancements in technology made available the presence of special motoring equipment, which can be placed in outer space to remotely monitor and measure the position of the sun.
The use of direct radar measurements to the sun (radar astronomy) have also made the determination of the AU more accurate.
A standard radar pulse of known speed is sent to the Sun, and the time with which it takes to return is measured, once this is recorded, the distance between the Earth and the Sun can be calculated using
distance = speed X time.
However, most of these means have to be corrected for parallax errors
