If light moves at a speed of 299,792,458 m/s, how long will it take light to move a distance of 1,000 km

Physics

Answer:

change 1000km into Metre

1000km=1000000 M

speed= distance/time

time=distance/speed

time=1000000/299792458

time= 0.0033second

A package of mass 5 kg sits on an airless asteroid of mass 7.6 × 1020 kg and radius 8.0 × 105 m. We want to launch the package i
Effectus [21]

Answer:

s =  1.7 m

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following:

Mass of package (m) = 5 kg

mass of the asteriod (M) = 7.6 x 10^{20} kg

radius = 8 x 10^5 m

velocity of package (v) = 170 m/s

spring constant (k) = 2.8 N/m

compression (s) = ?

Assuming that no non conservative force is acting on the system here, the initial and final energies of the system will be the same. Therefore  

• Ei = Ef

• Ei = energy in the spring + gravitational potential energy of the system

• Ei = \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + \frac{GMm}{r}

• Ef = kinetic energy of the object

• Ef = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  

• \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + (-\frac{GMm}{r}) = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  

• s = \sqrt{\frac{m}[k}(v^{2}+\frac{2GM}{r})}

s = \sqrt{\frac{5}[2.8 x 10^5}(170^{2}+\frac{2 x 6.67 x10^{-11} x 7.6 x 10^{20}}{8 x 10^5})}

s =  1.7 m

If you drop an object from rest, the distance it falls is given by (1/2)at2, where a is the acceleration of the object and t is
klio [65]

If,

d \:  =  \:   \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

then, with 3x time t, (suppose, new distance is h)

h \:  =  \:   \frac{1}{2} a {(3t)}^{2}

=  \frac{1}{2} a9 {t}^{2}

= 9 \:  \frac{1}{2} a{t}^{2}

= 9d

Therefore, new distance h will be 9 times bigger than distance d.

answer: c

What produces the wavy effect in air over a hot stove
AysviL [449]
<span>The reason that things look wavy in the heat over a hot grill or stove is that the air temperature is not stable. Hot air naturally rises, so as air comes off the hot surface, it rises for a bit before rapidly cooling and sinking to be heated again. This constant mixing of hot and cool air produces vibration. This vibration affects how we see the light moving through the air, making it look wavy.</span>

Which element has 7 valence electrons
nata0808 [166]

Halogens have 7 valence electrons, which probably explains why they are the most active non-metals.
