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\\

tekilochka [14]

Answer: e. Christian Dopplerâ

Explanation:

Based on the information given, the scientist of the past that should definitely be included in the exhibit is Christian Dopplera.

He described how the frequency of sound waves and light is being affected by the relative speed of both the source and also the observer. This was referred to as the Doppler effect.

In this scenario, the Doppler effect can be used to show how the universe is expanding. Therefore, the correct option is E.

Listening to the radio, you can hear two stations at once. Describe this wave interaction
Sedaia [141]
Actually says Pantazis, since their frequencies are so wildly different, brain waves don’t interfere with radio waves. Even if that was the case, brain waves are so weak, they are hardly measurable at all. For comparison, says Pantazis, “the magnetic field of the earth is just strong enough to move the needle of a compass. Signals from the brain are a billionth of that strength.”
