If they both start from the same height, then they both hit the ground at the
same time.  It makes no difference if their horizontal speeds aren't equal.
The cannon ball still accelerates downward at the same rate as the baseball.

Suppose an event is measured to be at a = (0,-2, 3, 5) in one reference frame. Find the components of this event in another refe
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The components of the moving frame is (8.07c, -2, 3, 9.493)

Solution:

As per the question:

Velocity of moving frame w.r.t original frame v_{m} 0.85c

Point 'a' of an event in one reference frame corresponds to the (x, y, z, t) coordinates of the plane

a = (0, - 2, 3, 5)

Now, according the the question, the coordinates of moving frame, say (X, Y, Z, t'):

New coordinates are given by:

X = \frac{x - v_{m}t}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v_{m}^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

X = \frac{0 - 0.85c\times 5}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.85c)^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

X = 8.07 c

Now,

Y = y = - 2

Z = z = 3

Now,

t' = \frac{t - \frac{vx}{c}^{2}}{\sqrt{1 - (\frac{v}{c})^{2}}}

t' = \frac{5 - 0}{\sqrt{1 - (\frac{0.85c}{c})^{2}}} = 9.493 s

A hill is 132 m long and makes an angle of 12.0 degrees with the horizontal. As a 54 kg jogger runs up the hill, how much work d
TEA [102]

Answer:

14523.55J

Explanation:

The work done by the jogger against gravity is given by the following equation;

W=mgh.................(1)

where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s^2 and h is the height of the hill.

Since the length of the hill is 132m and it is inclined at 12 degrees to the horizontal, the height is thus given as follows;

h=132sin12^o\\h=27.44m

Substituting this into equation (1) with all other necessary parameters, we obtain the following;

W=54*9.8*27.44\\W=14523.55J

In a particular experiment to study the photoelectric effect, the frequency of the incident light and the temperature of the met
mixer [17]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the ejected electrons increases.

Explanation:

As we know that electrons are only ejected from a metal surface if the frequency of the incident light increases the work function of the metal. If the frequency of the incident light is less than the work function of the metal no matter how intense the beam the electrons will not be ejected from the surface.

Using conservation of energy principle we have

E_{incident}=h\nu +\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

If we increase the intensity  of incident light the term on the LHS of the above equation increases this increase appears in the kinetic energy term in RHS of the equation since h\times \nu remains constant.
