The speed of spaceship moving is 2.4 x 10^8 m/s

As from the given data, the clock in a spaceship is observed to run at a speed of 3/5 of a similar clock that rest on the earth is

T/T° = 3/5

The expression for the time dilation is given by

T = γT°

γ = T/T°

γ = 1/√1 - v^2/c^2 is time dilation

Substituting the values in the above equation as,

γ = T/T°

5/3 = 1/√1 - v^2/c^2

v^2/c^2 = 16/25

v = 0.8 c

v = 0.8 x 3 x 10^8 m/s

v = 2.4 x 10^8 m/s

Hence, speed of spaceship moving is 2.4 x 10^8 m/s

If you place a glass cylinder in Wessin Oil, the view of the cylinder nearly disappeared when the eyedropper was full of Wessin
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A. the indices of refraction matched

Explanation:

The index of refraction, or refractive

index, is a measure of how fast light

rays travel through a given medium.

Alternatively, it could be said that

the refractive index is the measure of

the bending of a light ray when

passing from one medium to

another. Mathematically, it can be

represented as a ratio between two

different velocities – the velocity of

light in vacuum and the velocity of

light in a given medium.

For example, try putting a pencil in a jar full of water. If you look at the pencil from above, it would look as though the pencil has bent in the water. That happens due to the refraction of light. It occurs because as light rays enter water, they slow down, as the speed of light in water is lower than the speed of light in air. The magnitude of how much a medium refracts a light ray is determined by the index

nasty-shy [4]

If the mass of the sun is 1x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone. if I place a planet in orbits 2, 6, and 75, and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.

If the mass of the sun is 2x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone. if I place a planet in orbits 84, 1, and 5, and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.

If the mass of the sun is 3x, at least one planet will fall into the habitable zone if I place a planet in orbits 672, and 7 and all planets will orbit the sun successfully.
