A strip of copper metal is riveted to a strip of aluminum. the two metals are then heated. the coefficient of linear expansion o

We can base this on the equation of thermal expansion.

ΔL = L₀αΔT
where
ΔL is the expansion of length upon heating
L₀ is the initial length
α is the coefficient of linear expansion
ΔT is the temperature difference

So, if α for Aluminum is greater than α for Copper, then after heating, aluminum would be longer than copper.

a light ray traveling in air enters a second medium and its speed slows to 1.71 × 10^8 meters per second. what is the absolute i
givi [52]
The absolute refractive index is equal to the speed of light of the wave in air divided by the speed of light in the second medium. This means that it is equal to 3 x10^8 / 1.71 x10^8. This means the answer is 1.75

A wrench is accidentally dropped from the top of a mast on a sailboat. Will the wrench hit at the same place on the deck whether
alekssr [168]

Answer:

Yes, because the wrench is moving at the same speed as the sailboat.

The main difference is that a person on the ground would see the wrench moving diagonally, while a person on the boat would see the wrench falling straight down,

This difference in paths lead to the relativistic change in lengths.

A spaceship far from all other objects uses its impulse power system to attain a speed of 104 m/s. The crew then shuts off the p
asambeis [7]

Answer:

Velocity remains the same at 104 m/s

Explanation:

According to Newton's 1st law of motion, an object subjected to no force or net force equal 0 would maintain its velocity. In our case the crew shuts off the power, spaceship is in space and far from all other objects (so no gravity whatsoever) would have no force acting on it. Therefore its velocity would stay the same at 104 m/s
