Saturn is 890,700,000 miles from the Sun. What is this distance in scientific notation? The ratio of miles to meters is 1 mile e

quals 1.61 x 103 meters. What is this distance in meters? If the speed of light is 3.0 x 108 meters/second, how long does it take for light from the Sun to reach Saturn? Hint: Use the distance in meters to calculate.

Answer:

13 hours, 16 minutes, 41 seconds

Explanation:

Distance of Saturn from the Sun

= 890,700,000 miles

= 8.907\times 10^8 \: miles\\= 8.907\times 10^8 \times 1.61 \times 10^3 \:meters\\= 14.34027\times 10^{11}\: m\\= 1. 434027\times 10^{12}\: m\\\\\because Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed} \\\therefore Time = \frac{1.434027\times 10^{12}}{3\times 10^8}\\\therefore Time = 4.78009 \times 10^{12-8}\\\therefore Time = 4.78009 \times 10^{4} \:seconds \\\therefore Time = 47800.9 \:seconds\\\therefore Time = 47801 \:seconds\\\therefore Time = 13h\: 16m\: 41s\\

What is the sound intensity level in a car when the sound intensity is 0.525 μW/m2 ? Use I0 = 1.00×10−12 W/m2 for the reference
never [62]

Answer:

The sound intensity level in the car is 57.2 dB.

Explanation:

Sound intensity level in decibels, β = 10 log (I/I₀); where I = 0.525 × 10⁻⁶ W/m², I₀ = 1.0 × 10⁻¹² W/m²

β (dB) = 10 log ((0.525 × 10⁻⁶)/(1.0 × 10⁻¹²)) = 10 × 5.72 = 57.2 dB

Hope this Helps!!!

Ten high-technology batteries are tested for 200 hours each. One failed at 20 hours; another failed at 140 hours; all others com
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Failure rate   = 20%

MTBF = 880 hours

Explanation:

given data

batteries = 10

tested = 200 hours

one failed = 20 hours

another fail at =  140 hours

solution

we know that Mean Time between Failures is express as = (Total up time) ÷  (number of breakdowns)    ....................1

so here Total up time will be

Total up time = 200 × 10

Total up time = 2000

and here

Number of breakdown = 1 at 20 hour and another at 140 hour = 2

so it will be  = (Total up time) ÷ (number of breakdowns)      .......2

=  \frac{2000}{2}   =  1000  

so here gap between occurrences is

gap between occurrences=  140 - 20

gap between occurrences = 120 hour

and

MTBF  will be

MTBF = 1000 - 120

MTBF = 880 hours  

and

Failure rate (FR)  will be

Failure rate (FR) =  1 ÷ MTBF    ................3

Failure rate (FR) = R÷T     ......................4

as here R is the number of failures and T is total time

so Failure rate (FR)  = 20%

At a given instant, the force on an electron is in the +z-direction (out of the page), which the electron is moving in the +x-di
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

The direction of the B-field is in the +y-direction.

Explanation:

The corresponding formula is

F_B = qv\times B

This means, we should use right-hand rule.

Our index finger is pointed towards +x-direction (direction of velocity),

our middle finger should point towards the direction of the B-field,

and our thumb should point towards the +z-direction (direction of the force).

Since our middle finger in this situation points towards +y-direction, the B-field should be in +y-direction.

\^{x} \times \^{y} = \^{z}

You go rock climbing with a pack that weighs 70 N and you reach a height of 30 m. how much work did you do to lift your pack? If
Vikentia [17]
When you climb, earth exerts gravitational force on pack in downward direction(pointing towards the center of earth).
In order to climb, you need to work against work done by gravity on the pack.
Hence work done by you = work done by gravity on pack 
                                        = Force x displacement = 70 x 30 = 2100 J.
 
So you need to do 2100 joules of work to lift your pack.

Power is the rate of work done.
Therefore power = work done by you/time(in seconds)
                            =     2100/600 =3.5 watts
