Consider a civilization broadcasting a signal with a power of 2.0×104 watts. The Arecibo radio telescope, which is about 300 meters in diameter, could detect this signal if it is coming from as far away as 141 light-years. Suppose instead that the signal is being broadcast from the other side of the Milky Way Galaxy, about 70000 light-years away.

Answers

Answer 1

For light: Inverse Square Law 


The signal is weaken by the inverse square of the difference of distances this means that one over the square of the difference. 


Therefore, 70000LY / 141 LY =496.45 and that squared =246462.602 times less signal, or 1/246462.602.


 2 For a circular telescope like the Arecibo radio telescope that equals Pi times the radius squared. Sensitivity of the telescope depends on its area.
The new telescope needs 246462.60 times that area to have enough sensitivity 


(150 x 150 x Pi) = 70 685 sq m area for the Arecibo telescope and that times 246462.60
= 1.74212 x 10^10


What is the diameter of a circle with that area?

 
1. Divide the area by Pi = 5.548156 x 10^9
2. Take the square root of the result to find the radius = 74485.94293

3. Multiply by 2 to find the diameter = 148971.886

Which unit rates would be appropriate for describing the amount of rainfall over time?

Select each correct answer.



meters per second

milliliters per minute

centimeters per day

inches per hour

Answers

The unit rate appropriate for describing the amount of rainfall over time is centimeters per day. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

What is the unit rate?

Unit rate can be defined as the ratio between two measurements with the second term as 1. It is considered to be different from a rate, in which a certain number of units of the first quantity is compared to one unit of the second quantity.

Here,

Rainfall amount is expressed as the quotient of a unit of height and a unit of time.

The way to choose the most appropriate is the relation between both quantities.

For example, "meters per second" is a way too high unit for the height (which is usually inches or millimeters, instead of meters) and way too low for the time unit (which is usually per day, not seconds). This unit would have a really small number for any rain.

The most common unit is "centimeters per day"

Then, we should find a unit rate with a small unit for height and a large unit for time.

Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

Answers

720 divided by 8 and then look up the answer to that as a fraction on Google

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{1}{90}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total number of companies = 720

The number of companies won = 8

Now, the probability of a company winning is given by ;-

[tex]\text{P(winning)}=\dfrac{\text{Number of company wins}}{\text{ Total companies}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{P(winning)}=\dfrac{8}{720}\\\\\Rightarrow\ \text{P(winning)}=\dfrac{1}{90}[/tex]

D. y+2=−2(x−5)

Answers

I believe the answer is D
y+2=-2(x-5)
-2*-5=10
y+2=-2x+10
-2 -2
y=-2x+8

Answer: D . [tex]((y+2)=-2(x-5)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line passing through two points (a,b) and (c,d) in point-slope form is given by :-

[tex](y-d)=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}(x-c)[/tex]

From the given graph ,it can be seen that the line is passing through two points A(1,6) and B(5,-2).

Then the equation for the line AB in point-slope form would be :-

[tex](y-(-2))=\dfrac{-2-6}{5-1}(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ (y+2)=\dfrac{-8}{4}(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ (y+2)=-2(x-5)[/tex]

Hence, the equation is a point slope form equation for line AB :

[tex](y+2)=-2(x-5)[/tex]

Patricia donated 1 pint of blood to the blood bank. The lab assistant divided Patricia’s blood equally into 3 bags.



How much blood was in each bag?







Answers

0.333333333 US pints would be in each bag.

Each bag contained [tex]\(\frac{1}{3}\)[/tex] pint of blood.

To solve the problem, we need to divide the total amount of blood donated by Patricia equally into 3 bags. Patricia donated 1 pint of blood.

Since there are 3 bags, we divide 1 pint by 3 to find out how much blood is in each bag.

The calculation is as follows:

[tex]\[ \text{Blood per bag} = \frac{\text{Total blood donated}}{\text{Number of bags}} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Blood per bag} = \frac{1 \text{ pint}}{3} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Blood per bag} = \frac{1}{3} \text{ pint} \][/tex]

Therefore, each bag contains [tex]\(\frac{1}{3}\)[/tex] pint of blood.

If you multiplying by 1/4 makes a positive number smaller, then what does dividing by 1/4 do to the value of the number? Explain your reasoning

Answers

Dividing by 1/4 makes the value of the number bigger because you are basically multiplying by the reciprocal which is 4.

Division and multiplication are reciprocal operators.

Dividing the positive number by 1/4 will make the positive number bigger.

From the question, we understand that:

1/4 makes the positive number smaller, when it is multiplied to the positive number.

Because division and multiplication are reciprocals,

Dividing the positive number by 1/4 will make the positive number bigger.

Hence, what division does to the positive number is that: It makes it bigger

She bought a pair of running shoes for $29.45 and had $17.75 left. How much did Julie receive when she cashed her paycheck?

Answers

77.20 i think i did it in my head and with a caluclator

Answer:

Julie received $134.4 when she cashed her paycheck .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of paycheck be x

She paid $10 to her brother

She then spent $30 on fuel for her car

So, She left with amount = x-40

Now She spent half of the remaining money on a new tent for camping

Spent on camping = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(x-40)[/tex]

Remaining =  [tex](x-40)-\frac{1}{2}(x-40)[/tex]

She bought a pair of running shoes for $29.45

So, Remaining =  [tex](x-40)-\frac{1}{2}(x-40)-29.45[/tex]

We are given that She had $17.75 left.

So,  [tex](x-40)-\frac{1}{2}(x-40)-29.45=17.75[/tex]

[tex]x=134.4[/tex]

Hence Julie received $134.4 when she cashed her paycheck .

A box of popcorn weighs 15/16 pounds. The box contains 1/3 buttered popcorn and 2/3 cheesy popcorn. How much does the cheesy popcorn weigh

Answers

I think if you have 2/3 pounds of cheesy popcorn, then the 1/3 buttered popcorn plus the 2/3 cheesy popcorn would add up to a full, 15/16 pounds of popcorn altogether.

The weight of the cheesy popcorn is 5/8 pounds.

To find the weight of the cheesy popcorn, we will calculate two-thirds of the total weight of the popcorn box, which weighs 15/16 pounds. Since the box contains two types of popcorn, buttered and cheesy, with the cheesy popcorn making up two-thirds of the box, we will simply multiply the total weight of the box by 2/3 to find our answer.

The calculation is as follows:

Total weight of the box = 15/16 pounds

Cheesy popcorn weight = (2/3) * (15/16)

Cheesy popcorn weight = (2 * 15) / (3 * 16)

Cheesy popcorn weight = 30 / 48

When simplified, this gives us 5/8 pounds

Therefore, to find the weight of the cheesy popcorn in a 15/16 pound box, calculate two-thirds of the box's total weight, which results in 5/8 pounds for the cheesy popcorn.
