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

Yanka [14]

Answer:

4.7 m³

Explanation:

We'll use the gas law P1 • V1 / T1 = P2 • V2 / T2

* Givens :

P1 = 101 kPa , V1 = 2 m³ , T1 = 300.15 K , P2 = 40 kPa , T2 = 283.15 K

( We must always convert the temperature unit to Kelvin "K")

* What we want to find :

V2 = ?

* Solution :

101 × 2 / 300.15 = 40 × V2 / 283.15

V2 × 40 / 283.15 ≈ 0.67

V2 = 0.67 × 283.15 / 40

V2 ≈ 4.7 m³

An astronaut having mass 320 kg with equipment included is attempting an untethered space walk. The astronaut is initially at re
ExtremeBDS [4]
This can be solved using momentum balance, since momentum is conserved, the momentum at point 1 is equal to the momentum of point 2. momentum = mass x velocity
m1v1 = m2v2
(0.03kg x 900 m/s ) = 320(v2)
v2 = 27 / 320
v2 = 0.084 m/s is the speed of the astronaut

Does the inertia of an object change as the object’s velocity changes explain
Sever21 [200]
Inertia is proportional to mass. It is a measure of the resistance to changes in velocity. Inertia is a property of mass and cannot change. Momentum changes as an object changes its velocity. Good luck on your assignment and have a great day! :D

A 6.0 kg mass is placed on a 20º incline which has a coefficient of friction of 0.15. What is the acceleration of the mass down
Leona [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

The form of Newton's 2nd Law that we use for this is:

F - f = ma where F is the Force pulling the mass down the ramp forward, f is the friction trying to keep it from moving forward, m is the mass and a is the acceleration (and our unknown).

We know mass and we can find f, but we don't have F. But we can solve for that by rewriting our main equation to reflect F:

wsin\theta-\mu F_n=ma That's everything we need.

w is weight: 6.0(9.8). Filling in:

6.0(9.8)sin20 - .15(6.0)(9.8) = 6.0a and

2.0 × 10¹ - 8.8 = 6.0a and

11 = 6.0a so

a = 1.8 m/s/s
