The distance between the earth and mars is given as 0.35 AU.

AU stands for astronomical unit. It is the macroscopic unit of distance which is used for distance measurement between celestial bodies.

One astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance between the sun and earth.The distance between earth and sun is approximately 150 million kilometre. Hence -

                                      1 AU=150 *10^6 km

As per the question we have to convert the mean distance between earth and mars from AU unit to kilometre.

The mean distance is given as  0.35 AU

                                                = 0.35*150 *10^6 km

                                                 =52.5*10^6 km

                                                 = 52,500,00 km

The calculated value is approximately close to 55,000,00 km.

Hence option C is right.

Delicious77 [7]
The only information you would need to decide if the can will float is the density of the can, which requires knowing the mass and volume. If the density of the can is less than one, the can will float. if it is greater than one, it will not float, as water's density is one.

A moving sidewalk 95 m in length carries passengers at a speed of 0.53 m/s. One passenger has a normal walking speed of 1.24 m/s
Archy [21]

Answer:

a) t = 1.8 x 10² s

b) t = 54 s

c) t = 49 s

Explanation:

a) The equation for the position of an object moving in a straight line at constan speed is:

x = x0 + v * t

where

x = position at time t

x0 = initial position

v = velocity

t = time

In this case, the origin of our reference system is at the begining of the sidewalk.

a) To calculate the time the passenger travels on the sidewalk without wlaking, we can use the equation for the position, using as speed the speed of the sidewalk:

x = x0 + v * t

95 m = 0m + 0. 53 m/s * t

t = 95 m/ 0.53 m/s

t = 1.8 x 10² s

b) Now, the speed of the passenger will be her walking speed plus the speed of th sidewalk (0.53 m/s + 1.24 m/s = 1.77 m/s)

t = 95 m/ 1.77 m/s = 54 s

c) In this case, the passenger is located 95 m from the begining of the sidewalk, then, x0 = 95 m and the final position will be x = 0. She walks in an opposite direction to the movement of the sidewalk, towards the origin of the system of reference ( the begining of the sidewalk). Then, her speed will be negative ( v = 0.53 m/s - 2*(1.24 m/s) = -1.95 m/s. Then:

0 m = 95 m -1.95 m/s * t

t = -95 m / -1.95 m/s = 49 s

Can light cause the rubber to become solid? Why or why not? Does it matter what type of light she shines on the rubber?
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Yes, ultraviolet light can turn a rubber into solid due to prolong exposure.

Explanation:

A rubber is a material with an elastic property, causing it to be deform by an external force but takes its shape when the force is removed. Light is an electromagnetic wave which causes the sensation of vision. It transfers energy to a medium during propagation through the medium.

Generally, most light do not cause hardness of a rubber. But an ultraviolet light can cause rubber to become solid over a period of time. This is possible if there is a prolong exposure of the rubber, and because of the evaporation of volatiles in the polymer material. Ultraviolet light are known to cause a rubber to become solid.

Materials have unique properties because each one is made up of different kinds of which particle?
inysia [295]

D. Atoms.

Explanation:

All the matter is made of elementary particles called "atoms".

Further, an atom is made of electrons, protons and neutrons. The electrons & protons are again made of the fundamental sub-particles, electrons (leptons) and the protons(quarks).

The classification of particles is shown in the figure attached
