For this short response assignment, your job is to demonstrate your understanding of SI units and how they can be applied on an astronomical scale. To do this, answer each of the following with a brief explanation of the mathematics used to get there.The speed of light is 3*10^8 m/s (aka 300,000,000 meters per second). What is the speed of light in centimeters per second, kilometers per second, and miles per hour? (Hint: there are roughly 1.6 km per mile and 3600 seconds per hour) Remember to show the math; If light from the closest star to our solar system takes about 4.2 years to get to us, how far away is that star in units of Gm (aka Gigameters)? Again, explain your work.
What happens to the separation distance between two people if they both walk north at the same rate from two locations on Earth’s equator? And just for fun, where in the world is a step in every direction a step south?
in the second photo, when you plugged 6 in for t, shouldn't it be a = (9) - (0.25)(6)2? like since you're substituting it into the accel equation that you had in the first photo? but i don't know if that would work because then the accel would be 0
Please help me solve this problem with a clear, detailed and complete solution. Thank you so much tutor and god bless
if you walk at 1km/hr down the aisle of a train that moves at 60km/hr, what is your speed relative to the ground?
You and your friend both start your trips in Chicago. Driving nonstop, you reach Los Angeles — a distance of 2,018 kms — in 1.29 days, and your friend, also driving nonstop, reaches Miami — a distance of 1,380 miles — in 0.89 days. Who drove faster in m/s?
What do numbers on the x- and y-axes indicate on a rectangular coordinate system?
How do you get the coordinates from here?
4.1: 7) At noon, ship A is 20 nautical miles due west of ship B. Ship A is sailing west at 17 knots and ship B is sailing north at 20 knots. How fast (in knots) is the distance between the ships changing at 5 PM? (Note: 1 knot is a speed of 1 nautical mile per hour.)
A ball has reached a height of 5.7 meters.The time it took to reach the height was 1 minute 10 seconds (66 seconds) if i divide the distance in intervals of 50 centimeters. What time would i get every 50 centimeters until reaching 66 seconds ?
On the v(t) graph, what does the y-intercept represent?
A baseball hit just above the ground leaves the bat at 24 m/s at 45 degrees above the horizontal. How far away does the ball strike the ground? Can you visually show the above. It has to do with right angles and trigonometric functions, but I need your explanation to understand how this works, as I am new to this.
