We are 8 light minutes from the sun. That means two things, we see the sun as it was 8 minutes ago, and we WOULD continue to see the sun for 8 minutes after it disappeared.
Answer:
1170 m
Explanation:
Given:
a = 3.30 m/s²
v₀ = 0 m/s
v = 88.0 m/s
x₀ = 0 m
Find:
x
v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)
(88.0 m/s)² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (3.30 m/s²) (x - 0 m)
x = 1173.33 m
Rounded to 3 sig-figs, the runway must be at least 1170 meters long.
