Explain what it means to view a moving object from a frame of reference

Physics
1 answer:
GaryK [48]3 years ago
5 0
When you look at an object in motion, the frame of reference is different depending on where you are when looking at this object.

For example, if you are in a train you can say that from your frame of reference the ground outside is moving compared to you and you are not moving or the train is not moving. From someone on the outside of the train, they can say that the train is moving compared to the ground and they are not moving.

Another example could be if you are driving in a car. You can say that the road is moving backwards compared to you and you are stationary. Someone standing on the sidewalk can say you are moving compared to the ground. You can also say that you are not moving since you are stationary in the car.

Marta_Voda [28]

b..a harmless organism imitating the look of a harmful organism

Explanation:

A harmless organism imitating the look of a harmful organism is one example of mimicry that enables prey species avoid predation.

Prey are smaller and less harmful organisms often hunted by larger organisms usually carnivores.

Mimicry is a form of evolutionary adaptation process in which two organisms of the same specie or different species tends to look alike.

valentina_108 [34]
Let t = Theta and p = Phi
Tan t = y/x    Then x =y/Tant.
Tant = y/(x-d)  x-d = y/Tanp
y/Tant  - d = y/Tanp
y -d*Tanr = y*Tant/Tanp
y-y*Tant/Tanp  =  d*Tanr
y(1 - Tanr/Tanp = d*Tant

y = d*Tant/(1-Tant/Tanp)

How will frost on the wings of an airplane affect takeoff performance?
san4es73 [151]

Frost will disturb the smooth flow of air over the wing, unpleasantly distressing its lifting competence. In other words, this spoils the even flow of air over the wings, by this means decreasing lifting capability. Also, frost may avoid the airplane from becoming flying at normal departure speed.
