a spaceship, at rest in a certain reference frame s, is given a speed increment of 0.500c. it is then given a further 0.500c inc

rement in this new frame, and this process is continued until its speed with respect to its original frame s exceeds 0.999c. how many increments does it require?

In order to give a spaceship at rest in a specific reference frame s a speed increment of 0.500c, seven increments are required. Then, in this new frame, it receives an additional 0.500c increment.

The speed of an object, also known as v in kinematics, is a scalar quantity that refers to the size of the change in that object's position over time or the size of the change in that object's position per unit of time. The distance travelled by an object in a certain period of time divided by the length of the period gives the object's average speed in that period.

The spacecraft moves at v1 = 0.5c after the initial increment.The equation becomes V2 = V+V1/1+V*V1/c after the second one. 2 V2 = 0.5c+0.50c/1+(0.50c)^2/c^ 2 = 0.80c

Likewise, V3 = 0.929c

V4 = 0.976c

V5 = 0.992c

V6 = 0.99c

V7 = 0.999c

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Mg or your weight.

Explanation:

When your velocity is constant, the net force acting on you is 0. That means the upwards force of air resistance must fully balance the downwards force of gravity on you, which is Mg.

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

  9.877 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration can be computed from ...

  d = (1/2)at^2

  (1600 m) = (1/2)a(18 s)^2

  a = (1600/162) m/s^2 ≈ 9.877 m/s^2

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed
Mashutka [201]

(a)

consider the motion of the tennis ball. lets assume the velocity of the tennis ball going towards the racket as positive and velocity of tennis ball going away from the racket as negative.

m = mass of the tennis ball = 60 g = 0.060 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the tennis ball before being hit by racket = 20 m/s

v = final velocity of the tennis ball after being hit by racket = - 39 m/s

ΔP = change in momentum of the ball

change in momentum of the ball is given as

ΔP = m (v - v₀)

inserting the above values

ΔP = (0.060) (- 39 - 20)

ΔP = - 3.54 kgm/s

hence , magnitude of change in momentum : 3.54 kgm/s

Caffeine concentration is 1.99 mg/oz how many cans would be leathal if 10g was leathal and there where 12oz in a can
katovenus [111]

The number of cans that would be considered lethal if 10g was lethal and there where 12oz in a can is 419 cans.

<h3>How to convert mass?</h3>

According to this question, caffeine concentration is 1.99 mg/oz.

1.99 milligrams can be converted to grams as follows:

1.99milligrams ÷ 1000 = 0.00199grams

This means that 0.00199grams per oz is the caffeine concentration.

If there were 12 oz in a can, then, 0.00199grams × 12 = 0.02388 grams in 1 can.

This means that if 10grams is considered lethal, 10grams ÷ 0.02388 grams = 419 cans would be lethal for consumption.

Therefore, the number of cans that would be considered lethal if 10g was lethal and there where 12oz in a can is 419 cans.
