Power is the rate at which work is done (2nd option)
Answer:
Explanation:
a. The equation of Lorentz transformations is given by:
x = γ(x' + ut')
x' and t' are the position and time in the moving system of reference, and u is the speed of the space ship. x is related to the observer reference.
x' = 0
t' = 5.00 s
u =0.800 c,
c is the speed of light = 3×10⁸ m/s
Then,
γ = 1 / √ (1 - (u/c)²)
γ = 1 / √ (1 - (0.8c/c)²)
γ = 1 / √ (1 - (0.8)²)
γ = 1 / √ (1 - 0.64)
γ = 1 / √0.36
γ = 1 / 0.6
γ = 1.67
Therefore, x = γ(x' + ut')
x = 1.67(0 + 0.8c×5)
x = 1.67 × (0+4c)
x = 1.67 × 4c
x = 1.67 × 4 × 3×10⁸
x = 2.004 × 10^9 m
x ≈ 2 × 10^9 m
Now, to find t we apply the same analysis:
but as x'=0 we just have:
t = γ(t' + ux'/c²)
t = γ•t'
t = 1.67 × 5
t = 8.35 seconds
b. Mavis reads 5 s on her watch which is the proper time.
Stanley measured the events at a time interval longer than ∆to by γ,
such that
∆t = γ ∆to = (5/3)(5) = 25/3 = 8.3 sec which is the same as part (b)
c. According to Stanley,
dist = u ∆t = 0.8c (8.3) = 2 x 10^9 m
which is the same as in part (a)
The hull type that is best for use on ponds, small lakes and calm rivers is Flat Bottom Hull.
A flat bottomed boat is a boat with a flat bottomed, two-chined hull, which allows it to be used in shallow bodies of water, such as rivers, because it is less likely to ground. The flat hull also makes the boat more stable in calm water.
B. They came up with the term “radioactivity.”
C. They conducted experiments with uranium-containing minerals and pure uranium.
E. They discovered two new radioactive elements
