The common value for “Speed of light in vacuum” is $\bold{3 \times 10^{8}}$ metre per second.

Answer: Option b

Solution:

Speed of light can be defined as the speed with which light waves propagate in different medium. In vacuum, speed of light is 186,282 miles per second or 299,792 km/s which is rounded off as $3 \times 10^{8} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$ .

“Speed of light in vacuum” is a universal constant and usually represented by ‘c’. Light waves travels at a speed of $3 \times 10^{8}$ metre per second in vacuum.

Find the kenetic energy of a car of mass 700kg racing with a velocity of 10m/s

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

35000 KJ

Explanation:

The equation for the kinetic energy is given by the formula :

$E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

$E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} (700)(10)^{2}$

$E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} (700)(100)$

$E_{k} = (350)(100)$ OR $E_{k} = \frac{1}{2} (70000)$

$E_{k} = 35000$

Units will be kilojoules since the units of mass was kilograms .

Our final answer is 35000 KJ

Hope this helped and have a good day

Objects fall near the surface of the earth with a constant downward acceleration of 10 m/s2 . Suppose a falling object is moving

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The final velocity of the object after 2 seconds is 30 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

constant downward acceleration, a = 10 m/s²

initial velocity of the object falling down, v = 10 m/s

time of fall, t = 2 s

The final velocity of the object is given by;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity

v = 10 + (10)(2)

v = 10 + 20

v = 30 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the object after 2 seconds is 30 m/s

A piston is filled with gas. When the pressure is increasing, what is happening to the volume? Assume that all other properties

Kryger [21]

The correct answer is letter C. Volume is decreasing. For a fixed amount of an ideal gas kept at a fixed temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional.
