Answer:

25.52 seconds

Explanation:

Speed of space ship = 0.92 c = v

c = Speed of light

Time observed from asteroid = Δt = 10 seconds

Time dilation

\Delta t'=\frac{\Delta t}{\sqrt{1-\frac {v^2}{c^2}}}\\\Rightarrow \Delta t'=\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-\frac {0.92^2c^2}{c^2}}}\\\Rightarrow \Delta t'=\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-0.92^2}}\\\Rightarrow \Delta t'=25.52\ s

∴ Time interval be if measured by an observer on the Enterprise would be 25.52 seconds

Answer:

a = 1 m/s²  and

Explanation:

The first two parts can be seen in attachment

We use Newton's second law on each axis

Y axis

      Ty - W = 0        

      Ty = w

X axis

     Tx = m a

With trigonometry we find the components of tension

    Sin θ = Ty / T

    Ty = T sin θ

    Cos θ = Tx / T

    Tx = T cos θ

We calculate the acceleration with kinematics

   Vf = Vo + a t

   a = (Vf -Vo) / t

   a = (20 -10) / 10

   a = 1 m/s²

We substitute in Newton's equations

     

  T Sin θ = mg

  T cos θ = ma

We divide the two equations

  Tan θ = g / a

  θ = tan⁻¹ (g / a)

  θ = tan⁻¹ (9.8 / 1)

  θ = 84º

We see that in the expression of the angle the mass does not appear therefore you should not change the angle

true or false? short-wave heat radiation is given off by the earth when the earth absorbs long-wave radiation.
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Hope this helps u, pls mark me brainlist

Explanation:

The sun emits shortwave radiation because it is extremely hot and has a lot of energy to give off. Once in the Earth's atmosphere, clouds and the surface absorb the solar energy. The ground heats up and re-emits energy as longwave radiation in the form of infrared rays.
