If we consider an inertial reference system, that is, a system in which the laws of motion comply with Newton's laws, we will have that the speed of light will be the same in all those frames of reference. In other words, the speed of light in a vacuum will be independent of the movements of each of the observers.

Under this premise<em> he/she measures the speed of the laser light to be equal to the speed of light</em>, because the light travels at the same speed in every inertial frame of reference

What is the resistance in a circuit that carries a 0.75 A current when powered by a 1.5 V battery?
olga2289 [7]
The formula to use is: I = (<span> ΔV / R )
Once you solve for R, your new formula would be: R= (</span><span> ΔV / I ) 
Plug in your values to get: R = (1.5V / .75A )
Finally, R = 2</span><span>Ω</span>

A car bounces up and down on its springs at 1.0 Hz with only the driver in the car. Now the driver is joined by four friends. Th

The new frequency of oscillation when the car bounces on its springs is 0.447 Hz

<h3>Frequency of oscillation of spring</h3>

The frequency of oscillation of the spring is given by f = (1/2π)√(k/m) where

  • k = spring constant and
  • m = mass on spring

Now since k is constant, and f ∝ 1/√m.

So, we have f₂/f₁ = √(m₁/m₂) where

  • f₁ = initial frequency of spring = 1.0 Hz,
  • m₁ = mass of driver,
  • f₂ = final frequency of spring and
  • m₂ = mass on spring when driver is joined by 4 friends = 5m₁

So, making f₂ subject of the formula, we have

f₂ = [√(m₁/m₂)]f₁

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

f₂ = [√(m₁/m₂)]f₁

f₂ = [√(m₁/5m₁)]1.0 Hz

f₂ = [√(1/5)]1.0 Hz

f₂ = 1.0 Hz/√5

f₂ = 1.0 Hz/2.236

f₂ = 0.447 Hz

So, the new frequency of oscillation when the car bounces on its springs is 0.447 Hz

If a car moves with a uniform speed of 2m/s in a circle of radius 0.4m, what is its angular speed?
REY [17]

Answer:

The car's angular speed is \frac{rad}{s}.

Explanation:

Angular velocity is usually measured with \frac{radians}{sec}, so I'm going to use that to answer your question.

The relationship between tangential velocity and angular velocity (ω)  is given by:

V = \omega R

Using the values from the question, we get:

2 \frac{m}{s} = \omega (0.4m)

\omega = 5 \frac{rad}{s}

Therefore, the car's angular speed is 5 \frac{rad}{s}.

Hope this helped!
