1 answer:

7 0

Answer: The spinning of Earth's outer core causes the lithosphere to break into individual plates and collide with each other.

Earth's surface forms because of this reason:

A 30-m-long rocket train car is traveling from Los Angeles to New York at 0.5c when a light at the center of the car flashes. Wh

Novosadov [1.4K]

Given that,

Distance =30 m

speed = 0.5c

(A). We need to find the bell and siren simultaneous events for a passenger seated in the car

According to given data

The distance travelled by the light to reach either side of the rocket train car is same.

So, The two events are simultaneous and the bell and siren are the simultaneous events for a passenger seated in the car.

(B). We need to calculate time interval between the events

Using formula of time dilation

$\Delta t=\dfrac{\Delta t'}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}$ .....(I)

Where, $\delta t'$ = proper time

$\delta t$ = time interval between the events

The time interval between the events measured in a reference frame

The proper time in this case is

$\Delta t'=\Delta t_{1}-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}$

For the second interval,

Put the value of $\Delta t'$ in the equation (I)

$\Delta t_{2}=\dfrac{\Delta t_{1}-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}$

Put the value in the equation

$\Delta t_{2} = \dfrac{0-\dfrac{0.5c\times30}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{0.5^2c^2}{c^2}}}$

$\Delta t_{2}=\dfrac{-15}{3\times10^{8}\sqrt{1-0.25}}$

$\Delta t_{2}=-5.77\times10^{8}\ s$

Negative sign shows the siren rings before the bell ring.

Hence, (A). Yes, the bell and siren are simultaneous events.

(B). The siren sounds before the bell rings.

Answer:

1.5min

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to Period and Centripetal Acceleration.

By definition centripetal acceleration is given by

$a_c = \frac{V^2}{r}$

Where,

V = Tangencial velocity

r = radius

With our values we know that

$a_c = \frac{V^2}{r}$

$\frac{V^2}{r} = \frac{1}{10}g$

Therefore solving to find V, we have:

$V = \sqrt{\frac{1}{10}g*r}$

$V = \sqrt{\frac{9.81*200}{10}}$

$V = 14m/s$

For definition we know that the Time to complete are revolution is given by

$t = \frac{Perimeter}{Speed}$

$t = \frac{2\pi R}{V}$

$t = \frac{2\pi * 200}{14}$

$t = 1.5min$
