Answer:

Just in 1 dimension

Vpg = Vps + Vsg

Where

Vpg= relative to the ground

Vps= person relative to the ship

Vsg= ship relative to the ground

Vpg= Vps+Vsg ;

Vpg= 0.5 + 6

Vpg= 6,5 m/s

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

In terms of communication, a receiver is usually referred to as a person who listens, reads as well as observes. In simple words, a receiver is an individual or it can be a group of individuals, to whom any type of message is being diverted. The other name for the receiver is 'audience'.

In the given condition, Warren is attending a seminar in which he is listening to the speaker, as a part of the audience. So, it can be concluded that Warren is a receiver who is receiving information or hearing the speaker.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

A hydrogen atom in a galaxy moving with a speed of 6.65×106 m/???? away from the Earth emits light with a wavelength of 5.13×10−

Mumz [18]

Answer:

The observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom is $5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

The actual wavelength of the hydrogen atom, $\lambda_a=5.13\times 10^{-7}\ m$

A hydrogen atom in a galaxy moving with a speed of, $v=6.65\times 10^6\ m/s$

We need to find the observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom. The speed of galaxy is given by :

$v=c\times \dfrac{\lambda_o-\lambda_a}{\lambda_a}$

$\lambda_o$ is the observed wavelength

$\lambda_o=\dfrac{v\lambda_a}{c}+\lambda_a\\\\\lambda_o=\dfrac{6.65\times 10^6\times 5.13\times 10^{-7}}{3\times 10^8}+5.13\times 10^{-7}\\\\\lambda_o=5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m$

So, the observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom is $5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

a person throws a ball upward into the air with an initial velocity of 20 m/s. calculate (a) how high it goes, and (b) how long

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

a) about 20.4 meters high

b) about 4.08 seconds

Explanation:

Part a)

To find the maximum height the ball reaches under the action of gravity (g = 9.8 m/s^2) use the equation that connects change in velocity over time with acceleration.

$a=\frac{Vf-Vi}{t}$

$-9.8 \frac{m}{s} =\frac{Vf-Vi}{t}$

In our case, the initial velocity of the ball as it leaves the hands of the person is Vi = 20 m/s, while thw final velocity of the ball as it reaches its maximum height is zero (0) m/s. Therefore we can solve for the time it takes the ball to reach the top:

$-9.8 =\frac{0-20}{t}\\t=\frac{20}{9.8} s = 2.04 s$

Now we use this time in the expression for the distance covered (final position Xf minus initial position Xi) under acceleration:

$Xf-Xi=Vi*t+\frac{1}{2} a t^{2} \\Xf-Xi=20*(2.04)-\frac{1}{2} 9.8*2.04^{2}\\Xf-Xi=20.408 m$

Part b) Now we use the expression for distance covered under acceleration to find the time it takes for the ball to leave the person's hand and come back to it (notice that Xf-Xi in this case will be zero - same final and initial position)

$Xf-Xi=0=20*(t)-\frac{1}{2} 9.8*t^{2$

To solve for "t" in this quadratic equation, we can factor it out as shown:

$0= t(20-\frac{9.8}{2} t)$

Therefore there are two possible solutions when each of the two factors equals zero:

1) t= 0 (which is not representative of our case) , and

2) the expression in parenthesis is zero:

$0= 20-\frac{9.8}{2} t\\t=\frac{20*2}{9.8} = 4.08 s$

Hai vận động viên chạy trên cùng 1 đoạn đường, vận động

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Pemain A

Explanation:

Mengingat data berikut;

Kecepatan pemain A = 12 m/s

Kecepatan pemain B = 36 km/h

Untuk menentukan siapa pelari tercepat di antara dua pemain;

Pertama-tama, kita harus mengubah kecepatan menjadi satuan standar pengukuran yang sama.

Jadi, mari kita gunakan pengukuran umum meter per detik.

Konversi:

36 km/h = (36 * 1000)/(60 * 60)

36 km/h = 36000/3600

36 km/h = 10 m/s

Kecepatan pemain B = 10 m/s

Oleh karena itu, dibandingkan dengan kecepatan pemain A; pemain A lebih cepat.
