Answer:

Explanation:

Caty  ,  Use   the relativity formula for length.  ( they teach this in H.S. ? )  it's from my Modern Physics in college, A 300 level class  

L = L_{0}\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2} }{c^{2} } }

L = 3  \sqrt{1-\frac{.95^{2} }{1^{2} } }

L = 0.9367496998  meters

L = 0.94 meters approx

An object whose specific gravity is 0.850 is placed in water. What fraction of the object is below the surface of the water?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

The fraction of the object that is below the surface of the water is ¹⁷/₂₀

Explanation:

Given;

specific gravity of the object, γ = 0.850

Specific gravity is given as;

specific \ gravity = \frac{density \ of the \ object}{density \ of \ water}\\\\0.85= \frac{density \ of the \ object}{1000 \ kg/m^3} \\\\density \ of the \ object = 850 \ kg/m^3

Fraction of the object's weight below the surface of water is calculated as;

= \frac{850}{1000} \ \times\ 100\%\\\\= 85 \% \\\\= \frac{17}{20}

Therefore, the fraction of the object that is below the surface of the water is ¹⁷/₂₀

Forces can act on an object in the same direction or in opposite. how does each situation affect the motion of the object?
Anon25 [30]



Hi pupil here's your answer ::




➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡



Action and Reaction do not act on the same body !! If they acted on the same body, the resultant force will be zero and their could be never accelerated motion.

If both the forces acted on the same body, then if they are equal to opposite direction the object will remain stationary. If on of the forces is greater than other the object will move in the direction of greater force.

If both acted in the same direction there would be an accelrated motion.

A uniformly charged rod (length = 2.0 m, charge per unit length = 3.0 nc/m) is bent to form a semicircle. What is the magnitude
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

84.82N/C.

Explanation:

The x-components of the electric field cancel; therefore, we only care about the y-components.

The y-component of the differential electric field at the center is

$dE = \frac{kdQ }{R^2} sin(\theta )$.

Now, let us call \lambda the charge per unit length, then we know that

dQ = \lambda Rd\theta;

therefore,

$dE = \frac{k \lambda R d\theta }{R^2} sin(\theta )$

$dE = \frac{k \lambda  d\theta }{R} sin(\theta )$

Integrating

$E = \frac{k \lambda   }{R}\int_0^\pi sin(\theta )d\theta$

$E = \frac{k \lambda   }{R}*[-cos(\pi )+cos(0) ]$

$E = \frac{2k \lambda   }{R}.$

Now, we know that

\lambda = 3.0*10^{-9}C/m,

k = 9*10^9kg\cdot m^3\cdot s^{-4}\cdot A^{-2},

and the radius of the semicircle is

\pi R = 2.0m,\\\\R = \dfrac{2.0m}{\pi };

therefore,

$E = \frac{2(9*10^9) (3.0*10^{-9})   }{\dfrac{2.0}{\pi } }.$

$\boxed{E = 84.82N/C.}$

Conduction is the movement of heat energy because of
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Conduction occurs when a substance is heated, particles will gain more energy, and vibrate more. These molecules then bump into nearby particles and transfer some of their energy to them. This then continues and passes the energy from the hot end down to the colder end of the substance.

Which is not an example of a scalar?
Crank

Answer:

b) 2ft/s

Explanation:

A scalar has only magintude, not direction

6.2m, 3kg, and -100 o C are all scalars because they only have magnitude.

2ft/s is not a scalar because it has a direction.
