Theory of relativity shows that the speed of light doesn't depend
on the motion of the observer.  All observers measure the same
speed of light no matter how they're moving.

It does NOT say that the speed of light is the same in any medium.
If the light is moving through a block of jello, then all observers in jello
will measure the same speed of light, no matter how they're moving
and whatever that speed is.

An object experiences an impulse, moves and attains a momentum of 200 kg·m/s. If its mass is 50 kg, what is its velocity?
Nady [450]

Answer:

4 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as:

p=mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

For the object in this problem, we know:

p = 200 kg m/s is the momentum

m = 50 kg is the mass

Solving for the velocity, we find:

v=\frac{p}{m}=\frac{200}{50}=4 m/s

"why are some galaxies' spectra blueshifted rather than redshifted?"
stira [4]
This phenomena is also called the Doppler shift. When the source of light is approaching towards an observer, the color tends to be blue shifted, but when the source is moving away or being stretch, the color tends to red shifted. In astronomy it can be use how fast galaxy is moving towards us or how fast it moves away.

“I know what the atomic number of this atom is, but I don’t know what the number of electrons is,” a friend says. How would you
liq [111]

Once the atomic number of an atom is known, the number of electrons can be deduced depending on if the atom is an ion or a neutral one.

<h3>Atomic number</h3>

The atomic number of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom.

For atoms that are neutral, that is, no net charges, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons. In other words, the positive charges always balance the negative charges in neutral atoms.

Thus, if the atomic number of a neutral atom is 6, for example, the proton number will also be 6. Since the proton must balance the electron, the number of electrons will also be 6.
