Answer:
t'=1.1897 μs
Explanation:
First we will calculate the velocity of micrometeorite relative to spaceship.
Formula:
where:
v is the velocity of spaceship relative to certain frame of reference = -0.82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track).
u is the velocity of micrometeorite relative to same frame of reference as spaceship = .82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track)
u' is the relative velocity of micrometeorite with respect to spaceship.
In order to find u' , we can rewrite the above expression as:
u'=0.9806c
Time for micrometeorite to pass spaceship can be calculated as:
(c = 3*10^8 m/s)
t'=1.1897 μs
To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to equilibrium, for this specific case, through the sum of torques.
If the distance in which the 600lb are applied is 6in, we will have to add the unknown Force sum, at a distance of 27in - 6in will be equivalent to that required to move the object. So,
So, Force that must be applied at the long end in order to lift a 600lb object to the short end is 171.42lb
