The correct value for the rocket speed measured by an observer on earth would be = 14c

<h3>Calculation and of the rocket speed</h3>

To calculate the speed of the rocket we should observe that the rocket and the missile are in a relative motion which are moving on the same direction.

The speed of the rocket = 12c

The speed of the missile = 12c

The individual speed of earth =0c

But, the relative speed of the missile and the Earth is the sum of individual speeds.

Thus, the speed of rocket as measured by an observer on the Earth would be 0 + 14c = 14c.

Therefore, the correct value for the rocket speed measured by an observer on earth would be =14c

Spinning situations???
Papessa [141]
Just like mass, energy, linear momentum, and electric charge, angular momentum is also conserved.

The wheel has angular momentum.  I don't remember whether it's
up or down (right-hand or left-hand rule), but it's consistent with
counterclockwise rotation as viewed from above.

When you grab the wheel and stop it from spinning (relative to you),
that angular momentum has to go somewhere.

As I see it, the angular momentum transfers through you as a temporary
axis of rotation, and eventually to the merry-go-round. Finally, all the mass
of (merry-go-round) + (you) + (wheel) is rotating around the big common
axis, counterclockwise as viewed from above, and with the magnitude
that was originally all concentrated in the wheel.

The charge density of a uniformly charged disk 0.420 m in diameter is 2.92 ✕ 10−2 C/m2. What is the magnitude of the electric fi
iragen [17]

Answer:

E = {(Charge Density/2e0)*(1 - [z/(sqrt(z^2 - R^2))]}

R is radius = Diameter/2 = 0.210m.

At z = 0.2m,

Put z = 0.2m, and charge density = 2.92 x 10^-2C/m2, and constant value e0 in the equation,

E can be calculated at distance 0.2m away from the centre of the disk.

Put z = 0.3m and all other values in the equation,

E can be calculated at distance 0.3m away from the centre of the disk
