How do you know the speed of an electromagnetic wave in vacuum?

Many machines- including inclined planes such as ramps- increase the strength of the force put into the machine but decrease the distance over which the force is applied.

The place you get your hair cut has two nearly parallel mirrors 6.00 m apart. as you sit in the chair, your head is 2.00 m from the nearer mirror. looking toward this mirror, you first see your face and then, farther away, the back of your head. (the mirrors need to be slightly nonparallel for you to be able to see the back of your head, but you can treat them as parallel in this problem.) how far away does the back of your head appear to be?

Asystem containing an ideal gas at a constant pressure of 1.22×10^5 pa gains 2140 j of heat. during the process, the internal energy of the system increases by 2320 j. what is the change in volume of the gas?
