The altimeter reading is 29.17 from the Kollsman window is 29.17 in Hg

<h3>How to determine the altimeter reading?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Ground level = 700 ft i.e. the field elevation
Pressure altitude = 1450 ft

The formula to calculate the pressure altitude is:

Altitude = (29.92 – Altimeter reading) * 1,000 + Ground level

Substitute the known values

1450 = (29.92 - Altimeter reading) * 1000 + 700

Evaluate the like terms

750 = (29.92 - Altimeter reading) * 1000

Divide both sides by 1000

0.75 = 29.92 - Altimeter reading

Evaluate the like terms

Altimeter reading = 29.17

Hence, the altimeter reading is 29.17 from the Kollsman window is 29.17 in Hg

Answer:

The angular speed after 6s is $\omega = 1466.67s^{-1}$ .

Explanation:

The equation

$I\alpha = Fd$

relates the moment of inertia $I$ of a rigid body, and its angular acceleration $\alpha$ , with the force applied $F$ at a distance $d$ from the axis of rotation.

In our case, the force applied is $F = 22N$ , at a distance $d = 6cm =0.06m$ , to a ring with the moment of inertia of $I =mr^2$ ; therefore, the angular acceleration is

$\alpha =\frac{Fd}{I}$

$\alpha =\frac{22N*0.06m}{(1.5kg)*(0.06)^2}$

$\alpha = 244.44\: s^{-2}$

Therefore, the angular speed $\omega$ which is

$\omega = \alpha t$

after 6 seconds is

$\omega = 244.44$\: s^{-2}* 6s$

$\boxed{\omega = 1466.67s^{-1}}$

Does the theory of relativity show that Newtonian mechanics is wrong?

valina [46]

Answer:

Einstein extended the rules of Newton for high speeds. For applications of mechanics at low speeds, Newtonian ideas are almost equal to reality. That is the reason we use Newtonian mechanics in practice at low speeds.

Explanation:

<em>But on a conceptual level, Einstein did prove Newtonian ideas quite wrong in some cases, e.g. the relativity of simultaneity. But again, in calculations, Newtonian ideas give pretty close to correct answer in low-speed regimes. So, the numerical validity of Newtonian laws in those regimes is something that no one can ever prove completely wrong - because they have been proven correct experimentally to a good approximation.</em>
