Planet Tatoone is about 1.7 AU from its Sun. Approximately how long will it take for light to travel from the Sun to Tatoone in minutes? Use 3 × 108 m/s for the speed of light.

The value is      

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The distance of planet Tatoone is  

   The  speed of light is  

Generally the time taken is mathematically represented as

=>

=>    

Now converting to minutes

   =>        

given data:

determine the horse power (h.p) = ?

force applied to move the box(f) = 10 pounds,

box lifted from a distance         (d) = 3 feet

time taken to lift                         (t) = 10 sec,

the horse power is defined as amount of work required to move a load. the horse power is equal to 550 foot-pound per second

                  1 h.p   = 550 foot-pound/second

it can also be defined as the the load that need to be move a body for certain distance in a certain amount of time.

mathematically,

                      h.p = (force × distance)/ time

                            = (10 × 3)/ 10

                            = 30/10

                            = 3 foot -pound/sec

hence, the horse power is needed to move the box is 3 foot-pound/second

important note: 1 h.p = 550 foot-pound/second = 746 watts

answer: 0.20

explanation: this can only be the answew because all the other measuremnets are not close
