While watching a recent science fiction movie, one Klingon spaceship blows up a Droid spaceship with a laser gun. The Klingon crew watches out the port window and covers their ears to muffle the noise from the explosion. Scientifically, this scene is inaccurate because A)
light can not reflect off objects in the vacuum of space.



B)
they would not be able to see anything outside the window.



C)
lasers can not be transmitted through the vacuum of space.



D)
the sound of the explosion would not be transmitted back to their ship.

Answers

Answer:

D)  the sound of the explosion would not be transmitted back to their ship.

Explanation:

Sound is a mechanical wave. A mechanical wave requires a medium to travel and transfer energy. It travels be compression and rarefaction of the medium. Since in space it is vacuum, the sound energy by the explosion of the spaceship would not be able to travel through the space, the Klingon crew are not required to cover their ears to muffle the noise. This scene would be inaccurate scientifically.

D. is the right answer because his pressure is very bad out there in the air.good luck

How can you make gravity smaller and bigger

Answers

The force of gravity = GMm / r^2, where G is gravitational constant, M is mass of one object, m is mass of another object, r is distance between them.

To make gravity smaller, decrease mass or increase distance.
To make gravity bigger, increase mass or decrease distance.

You can increase the forces of gravity between you and,
let's say, a planet, in two ways.

Way #1:
Increase your mass. 
(Eat or drink more.
Fill your pockets with rocks.
Put on a heavy coat or space suit.)

Way #2:
Get closer to the center of the planet.
(That only works down to the planet's surface, but
it stops working if you go below the surface.)

To decrease the forces of gravity, do exactly the opposite:
-- lose weight
-- get farther away from the object that gravity is attracting you to .

Also, don't forget: 
The forces of gravity always work both ways. 
The less the planet pulls on you, the less you pull on the planet.
The harder the planet pulls on you, the harder you pull on the planet.

How does a merry go round use potential and kinetic energy

Answers

Answer: This should be a huge help in ur answer...

Explanation: potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position relative to others, stresses within itself, electric charge, and other factors and kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.

Lenses in eyeglasses change the direction of light rays to help the lens of the eye form an image inside the eye . What process take place in the eyeglass lenses ?

Answers


To make this process happen, the eye contains a lens between the retina and the pupil. The lens and the cornea, a transparent covering, then work together, focusing the image on the retina. Vision problems occur when the image focused on the retina is focused either too far back, resulting in farsightedness or too far in, resulting in nearsightedness. In combination with these conditions, glasses may also work to assist with those suffering from crossed eyes, where the eyes refuse to focus together, which produces two of the same object in the field of vision, which results in blurriness of both objects. How glasses correct these problems is determined by what kind of lens the glasses are made of. The two types of lenses are the plus and minus lens. The plus lens has a convex shape, which focuses images on the retina when the eye’s lens originally focuses the image too far back. The minus lens has a concave shape, which focuses images on the retina when the eye’s lens originally focuses the image too close. Different strengths of these lenses determine how far back or how far forward the focus should be brought so that the image is displayed correctly on the retina.
