How does light travel so you can see in the dark

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Light travels as a wave. But unlike sound waves or water waves, it does not need any matter or material to carry its energy along. This means that light can travel through a vacuum—a completely airless space. ... It speeds through the vacuum of space at 186,400 miles (300,000 km) per second.

Answers

B $:$:$;;$73 in drug hzsked

The value of the wavelength is 4.46m.The correct option is (b).

How to calculate the wavelength of a wave?

The wavelength of a wave is defined as the distance between any two consecutive crests and troughs. It can be calculated by taking the ratio of frequency and velocity.

The expression for wavelength is given as follows,

λ = f / v

Where λ is the wavelength, f is the frequency and v is the velocity of the wave produced.

Substitute the corresponding values to obtain,

λ = 128/28.7

  = 4.46

Hence, the wavelength of the wave produced by the tuning fork is given as 4.46 m.

A Casey is correct. In order to find

DEF is a right traingle if the three sides are 24 40 and 17

Answers

If it is, then the squares of the short side and the medium side add up to the square of the longest side.

Let's check it out:

Square of the short side = 17² = 289

Square of the medium side = 24² = 576

These two squares add up to (289 + 576) = 865

Square of the longest side = 40² = 1,600

865 is not equal to 1,600.

So these three numbers do not make a right triangle.

Help!!!! Teah was selling candy bars for a fundraiser. She spent $25 on a box of candy bars and sold each candy bar for $2.50. Her profit was $75. Teah wrote the equation 2.5c−25=75 for this situation, and she found c=40.


Which statement is true about the solution c=40?


1. The solution c=40 is the amount in dollars that Teah spent on a box.

2. The solution c=40 is the number of candy bars Teah sold.

3. The solution c=40 is the selling cost of each candy bar, in dollars. (Wrong)

4. The solution c=40 is the profit in dollars Teah made from each candy bar.

5. The solution c=40 is the selling cost of a box of candy bars, in dollars.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation: It is 2 because you can just use the process of elimination 1 is wrong because you know how much she spent on a bod $25 and 3 is wrong because she is selling the candy bars for $2.50 we know that the story tells us that and 4 is wrong because the story tells us her profit was $75 not $40 and 5 is wrong because we already know the selling cost of a box of candy bars in dollars $25 so when you use the process of elimination trick you only have 1 answer left and that's 2.

Answers

Answer: A. 23

23 - Width

23x2 = 46

46+3 = 49

So..

49 - Length

lx2+wx2 = perimeter

49x2 = 98

23x2 = 46

98+46 = 144

The width of the television will be 23 inches. Then the correct option is A.

What is the perimeter of the rectangle?

Let W be the rectangle's width and L its length.

The perimeter of the rectangle will be defined as the total length of all of its sides. So the rectangle's perimeter will be

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L + W) units

The length of a rectangular television is 3 inches longer than its width. The display has a 144-inch perimeter. Then the equation is given below.

L = 2W + 3                  ...1

144 = 2(L + W)            ...2

From equations 1 and 2, then have

144 = 2(2W + 3 + W)

72 = 3W + 3

3W = 69

W = 23 inches

The width of the television will be 23 inches. Then the correct option is A.

Answers

Answer:

has a right angle to hold the billboard upright. Since a triangle is 180, and there' s a right angle, then when you add angle A and angle B together, they should add up to 90.

Step-by-step explanation:

A  = 2B + 15

A + B = 2B+15 + B = 90

3B + 15 = 90

3B = 75, so B = 25 degrees

90 - B = A, so A = 65 degrees

-75%


Please select the best answer from the choices provided

A
B
C
D

Answers

Answer:

The answer is B!

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 63000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 100% equals 63000, so we can write it down as 100%=63000.

4. We know, that x% equals 17000 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=17000.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 100%=63000

2) x%=17000

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

100%/x%=63000/17000

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 17000 is what percent of 63000

100%/x%=63000/17000

(100/x)*x=(63000/17000)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

100=3.7058823529412*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.7058823529412) to get x

100/3.7058823529412=x

26.984126984127=x

x=26.984126984127

now we have:

17000 is 27% of 63000

-7 + a = 3
Given the above equation, what is the value of
10-[(a -3) - 7]?

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

a=3+7

a=10

10-[(10-3)-7]=

=10-[7-7]=

=10-0=

=10

The solution of expression 10 - [(a - 3) - 7] would be 10.

Given that,

The equation is,

-7 + a = 3

Now, we can simplify the equation as,

- 7 + a = 3

a - 7 = 3

Subtract 3 on both sides,

a - 3 - 7 = 0

(a - 3) - 7 = 0  .. (i)

Here, the equation to simplify is,

10 - [(a - 3) - 7]

Substitute the value from equation (i),

10 - 0

= 10

Therefore, the solution of expression is 10.
