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

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The ball would have landed 3.31m farther if the downward angle were 6.0° instead.

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must first start by doing a drawing that will represent the situation. (See picture attached).

We can see in the picture that the least the angle the farther the ball will go. So we need to find the A and B position to determine how farther the second shot would go. Let's start with point A.

So, first we need to determine the components of the velocity of the ball, like this:

V_{Ax}=V_{A}cos\theta

V_{Ax}=(21m/s)cos(-14^{o})

V_{Ax}=20.38 m/s

V_{Ay}=V_{A}sin\theta

V_{Ay}=(21m/s)sin(-14^{o})

V_{Ay}=-5.08 m/s

we pick the positive one, so it takes 0.317s for the ball to hit on point A.

so now we can find the distance from the net to point A with this time. We can find it like this:

x_{A}=V_{Ax}t

x_{A}=(20.38m/s)(0.317s)

x_{A}=6.46m

Once we found the distance between the net and point A, we can similarly find the distance between the net and point B:

V_{Bx}=20.88 m/s

V_{By}=-2.195 m/s

y_{Bf}=y_{B0}+V_{0}t-\frac{1}{2}at^{2}

0=2.1m+(-2.195m/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(-9.8m/s^{2})t^{2}

-4.9t^{2}-2.195t+2.1=0

t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}

t=\frac{-(-2.195)\pm\sqrt{(-2.195)^{2}-4(-4.9)(2.1)}}{2(-4.9)}

t= -0.9159s    or   t=0.468s

we pick the positive one, so it takes 0.468s for the ball to hit on point B.

so now we can find the distance from the net to point B with this time. We can find it like this:

x_{B}=V_{Bx}t

x_{B}=(20.88m/s)(0.468s)

x_{B}=9.77m

So once we got the two distances we can now find the difference between them:

x_{B}-x_{A}=9.77m-6.46m=3.31m

so the ball would have landed 3.31m farther if the downward angle were 6.0° instead.

I would like help with this physics problem
Darina [25.2K]

(a) This is a freefall problem in disguise - when the ball returns to its original position, it will be going at the same speed but in the opposite direction. So the ball's final velocity is the negative of its initial velocity.

Recall that

v_f=v_i+at

We have v_f=-v_i, so that

-2v_i=at\implies-2\left(8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)=\left(-2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t\implies t=8\,\mathrm s

(b) The speed of the ball at the start and at the end of the roll are the same 8 m/s, so the average speed is also 8 m/s.

(c) The ball's average velocity is 0. Average velocity is given by \dfrac{v_i+v_f}2, and we know that v_f=-v_i.

(d) The position of the ball x_f at time t is given by

x_f=x_i+v_it+\dfrac12at^2

Take the starting position to be the origin, x_i=0. Then after 6 seconds,

x_f=\left(8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(-2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)^2=42\,\mathrm m

so the ball is 42 m away from where it started.

We're not asked to say in which direction it's moving at this point, but just out of curiosity we can determine that too:

x_f-x_i=\dfrac{v_i+v_f}2t\implies42\,\mathrm m=\dfrac{8\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}+v_f}2(6\,\mathrm s)\implies v_f=6\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

Since the velocity is positive, the ball is still moving up the incline.
