An astronaut leaves earth in a spaceship at a speed of 0.96 c relative to an observer on earth. the astronaut's destination is a star system 14.4 light-years away (one light-year is the distance light travels in one year.) according to the astronaut, how long does the trip take?

Light from the sun reaches the earth in 8.3 minutes. the velocity is 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. how far is earth from the sun? i know how to get to d = (3 x 10^8 m/s)(498 sec). i just don't know how to get from there to the answer being 1.5 x 10^11 m.

Question 1 what is amperage? is the rate of doing work. is the rate of flow of protons in electric current. represents the amount of pressure behind electron flow. is the rate of flow of electrons in electric current. 2 points question 2 what is voltage? is the rate of doing power. represents the amount of pressure behind electron flow. is the rate of doing work. is the rate of flow of electrons in electric current. 2 points question 3 what is power? is the rate of flow of protons in electric current. is the rate of flow of electrons in electric current. is the rate of doing work. represents the amount of pressure behind electron flow. 2 points question 4 if we multiply volts times amps we get what? power circuit work current 2 points question 5 what are two ways alternating currents are similiar? in both ac and dc electrons flow in the same pattern. in both ac and dc, the flow of electrons changes directions back and forth. both ac and dc are only possible in certain materials with atoms that will allow electron flow. both ac and dc involve the flow of electrons. 4 points question 6 how does the flow of electrons flow in an alternating current? the flow of electrons is always slower in an alternating current than within a direct current. the flow of electrons is not constant and forward; it changes direction back and forth. electrons flow from from a higher affinity to that of a lower affinity. electron flow is constant and only in a forward direction. 2 points question 7 what is the flow like in a direct current? the flow of electrons is not constant and forward; it changes direction back and forth. the flow of electrons is constant and only in a forward direction. the flow of electrons go from a higher affinity to a lower affinity. the flow of electrons are always faster in a direct current. 2 points question 8 how is an electric current able to flow? electrons flow from the higher affinity to lower affinity and electrical current is generated. protons flow from the higher affinity to lower affinity and electrical current is generated. the movement of protons from one atom to another leads to an electric charge. the movement of electrons from one atom to another atom in a line results in a flow of electric current. 2 points question 9 how do electrons move from the two different types of metal in a battery? protons flow from the metal with the lower affinity to the metal with higher affinity and electrical current is generated. electrons flow from the metal with the lower affinity to the metal with higher affinity and electrical current is generated. electrons flow from the metal with the higher affinity to the metal with lower affinity and electrical current is generated. protons flow from the metal with the higher affinity to the metal with lower affinity and electrical current is generated.

Learning goal: to understand newton's 1st law. newton's principia states this first law of motion: an object subject to no net force maintains its state of motion, either at rest or at constant speed in a right line. this law may be restated as follows: if the sum of all forces acting on an object is zero, then the acceleration of that object is zero. mathematically this is just a special case of the 2nd law of motion, f⃗ =ma⃗ , when f⃗ =0. when studying newtonian mechanics, it is best to remember the 1st law in two ways: if the net force (i.e., sum of all forces) acting on an object is zero, the object will keep moving with constant velocity (which may be zero). if an object is moving with constant velocity, that is, with zero acceleration, then the net force acting on that object must be zero. complete the following sentences to see if you can apply these ideas. part a if a car is moving to the left with constant velocity, one can conclude that
