when he returns his hertz rent-a-rocket after one week's cruising in the galaxy, spock is shocked to be billed for three weeks'

rental. assuming that he traveled straight out and then straight back, always at the same speed, how fast was he traveling?

Mr. spoke is travelling with speed v = 9.4c.

Mr. spoke is apparently unknowing of theory of special relativity by Einstein. The theory states that moving clock tick slower than stationery clock.

Time elapse =∆t = 3 weeks

(In earth stationery frame)

Time ellipse= ∆t' = 1 week

(In the frame of rocket)

∆t' = ∆t'/γ

1/y² = 1 - v²/c²

∆t'²/∆t² =

=1²/3²

=1/9

c= 3×10⁸m/s

on solving above equation we get :

v = 9.4c

He was spreading around at close to the speed of light.

Experience significant time dilatation.

He is travelling with speed v = 9.4c.

A bubble, located 0.200 m beneath the surface in a glass of beer, rises to the top. The air pressure at the top is 1.01x10⁵ Pa.

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

$\frac{1.019}{1}$

Explanation:

To solve this equation we will have to consider that the bubble is filled with an Ideal Gas and as such we can use the Ideal Gas Law

$PV = nRT$

Where

$P$ = Pressure

$V$ = Volume

$n$ = Moles

$R$ = Ideal Gas Constant

$T$ = Temperature

Now since we know that the value for the temperature and moles is constant we can simply use Boyles Law for the two states

$P_{1} V_{1} =P_{2} V_{2}$

Let us look at the two states

State 1 (at top)

Pressure = $1.01*10^5$

Volume = $V_{1}$

State 2 (at bottom)

Pressure = $1.01*10^5 + dgh$

Where

$d$ = Density of liquid (1000 kg/m³)

$d$ = Acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²)

$d$ = Height of liquid (0.200 m)

Pressure = $102,962$

Volume = $V_{2}$

Inputting these values into the Boyles Law

$P_{1} V_{1} =P_{2} V_{2}\\ (101000)V_{1} = (102962)V_{2}\\ \frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} = \frac{102962}{101000} \\ \frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} = \frac{1.019}{1}$

A Hooke's law spring is compressed 12.0 cm from equilibrium, and the potential energy stored is 72.0 J. What compression (as mea

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:14.14 cm

Explanation:

Given

Spring Compression $x=12 cm$

Potential energy Stored in spring $=72 J$

Suppose k is the spring constant of spring

Potential Energy of spring is given by $=\frac{kx^2}{2}$

$\frac{k(0.12)^2}{2}=72$

$k(0.12)^2=144$

$k=10,000 N/m$

$k=10 kN/m$

for 100 J energy

$\frac{k(x_0)^2}{2}=100$

$10\times 10^3\cdot (x_0)^2=200$

$(x_0)^2=2\times 10^{-2}$

$x_0=0.1414$

$x_0=14.14 cm$
