When far from the sun, a comet is like a stone rolling around the universe. But when it approaches the sun, the heat evaporates the comet's gases, causing it to emit dust and micro particles, electrons and ions.

Covert 35000000 miles to meters and show how you got the answer?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

56327040000 metres

Explanation:

1 mile =

1609.344 metres

35000000 miles = x meters

we represent x by the number of meters which the requested miles maps to

we cross multiply, so 1609.344×35000000 = 1 × x

x =56327040000 metres

Bob runs 1800 seconds at an average speed of 1.5 m/sec. How far did he go? 25 Points!!!!
german

Distance= Time×Speed

= 1800×1.5

= 2700 m

I am not sure it's right. the question itself is confusing.

A block of mass 0.221 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 5365 N/m and pushed downward so that the
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 0.221 kg

Spring constant k = 5365 N/m

Distance x = 0.097 m

We need to calculate the height

Using stored energy in spring

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2...(I)

Using gravitational potential energy

U' =mgh....(II)

Using energy of conservation

E_{i}=E_{f}

U_{i}+U'_{i}=U_{f}+U'_{f}

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2+0=0+mgh

h=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mg}

Where, k = spring constant

m = mass of the block

x = distance

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value in the equation

h=\dfrac{5365\times(0.097)^2}{2\times0.221\times9.8}

h=11.653\ m

Hence, The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.
