A spaceship travels toward the Earth at a speed of 0.97c. The occupants of the ship are standing with their torsos parallel to t
Ket [755]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply length contraction einstein's relativistic formula to calculate the length observed by observer on the earth . For the observer , increased length will be observed for an observer on the earth

L=\frac{.5}{\sqrt{1-(\frac{.97c}{c})^2 } }

L=\frac{.5}{.24}

L= 2.05

The length will appear to be 2.05 m . and width will appear to be .5 m  to the observer on the spaceship. . It is so because it is length which is moving parallel to the direction of travel. Width will remain unchanged.

1. Is the collision between the ball and the pendulum elastic or inelastic? Justify your answer by calculating the kinetic energ
Nitella [24]

Answer:

So energy is not conserved and inelastic shock

Explanation:

In the collision between a bullet and a ballistic pendulum, characterized in that the bullet is embedded in the block, if the kinetic energy is conserved the shock is elastic and if it is not inelastic.

Let's find the kinetic energy just before the crash

         K₀ = ½ m vₓ₀²

After the crash we can use the law of conservation of energy

Starting point. Right after the crash, before starting to climb

        Em₀ = K = ½ (m + M) v₂²

Final point. At the maximum height of the pendulum

       Em_{f} = U = (m + M) g h

Where m is the mass of the bullet and M is the mass of the pendulum

        Em₀ = Em_{f}

        ½ (m + M) v₂² = (m + M) g h

        v₂ = √ 2g h

Now we can calculate the final kinetic energy

       K_{f} = ½ (m + M) v₂²²

       K_{f} = ½ (m + M) (2gh)

The relationship between these two kinetic energies is

      K₀ / K_{f} = ½ m vₓ₀² / (½ (m + M) 2 g h)

      K₀ / K_{f} = m / (m + M)  vₓ₀² / 2 g h

We can see that in this relationship the Ko> Kf

So energy is not conserved and inelastic shock

Bridget is riding her bicycle up a hill. Which statements are correct? Check all that apply.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Bridget is transferring energy to the bicycle.

The bicycle is using energy to do work.

Bridget has kinetic energy.

The bicycle has potential energy.

The bicycle has mechanical energy.

Explanation:

Energy can be transformed from one form to another. A body possess kinetic energy due to virtue of its motion. Potential energy is possessed by a body due to virtue of its position. mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. Nuclear energy is produced when atoms split or two atoms fuse together.

When Bridget is riding bicycle up a hill. Energy involved is both kinetic energy due to motion and potential energy due to gain in height up the hill. Bridget is pedaling, hence he is transferring energy to the bicycle. Bridget is in motion along with the bicycle. Hence, both Bridget and Bicycle have kinetic energy and potential energy. We can say both have mechanical energy. Thus correct options are:

Bridget is transferring energy to the bicycle.

The bicycle is using energy to do work.

Bridget has kinetic energy.

The bicycle has potential energy.

The bicycle has mechanical energy.
