A light flashes at position x=0m. One microsecond later, a light flashes at position x=1000m. In a second reference frame, movin

g along the x-axis at speed v, the two flashes are simultaneous. Is this second frame moving to the right or to the left relative to the original frame?

Answer:

To the right relative to the original frame.

Explanation:

In first reference frame <em>S</em>,

Spatial interval of the event, \rm \Delta x=1000\ m-0\ m=1000\ m.

Temporal interval of the event, \rm \Delta t = 1\ \mu s=10^{-6}\ s.

In the second reference frame <em>S'</em>, the two flashes are simultaneous, which means that the temporal interval of the event in this frame is \rm \Delta t'=0\ s.

The speed of the frame <em>S' </em>with respect to frame <em>S</em> = v.

According to the Lorentz transformation,

\rm \Delta t'=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}\left( \Delta t-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}\right ).\\\\Since,\ \Delta t'=0,\\\therefore \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}}\left( \Delta t-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}\right )=0\\\Rightarrow \Delta t-\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}=0\\\dfrac{v\Delta x}{c^2}=\Delta t\\v=\dfrac{c^2\Delta t}{\Delta x }.\\\\Also, \ \Delta t,\ \Delta x>0\ \Rightarrow v>0.

And positive v means the velocity of the second frame<em> </em><em>S'</em> is along the positive x-axis direction, i.e., to the right direction relative to the original frame <em>S</em>.

Which has the lowest heat capacity? (values of heat capacities and calculations are unnecessary).
Brrunno [24]

The correct answer is Metals.

Generally, the specific heat of metals is low. Very high specific heat exists in water.A physical feature of matter known as heat capacity or thermal capacity is the quantity of heat that must be applied to an object in order to cause a unit change in temperature. Heat capacity is measured in joules per kelvin (J/K), the SI unit. A broad property is heat capacity. Use the following equation to determine heat capacity: heat capacity = E / T, where E is the quantity of delivered heat energy and T is the change in temperature. The formula would be as follows, for instance, if it takes 2,000 Joules of energy to raise a block's temperature by 5 degrees Celsius: 2,000 Joules per °C is the heat capacity.

A uniform solid disk rolls without slipping down an incline making an angle θ with the horizontal. What is its acceleration? (En
Maru [420]

Answer:

aCM = (2/3)*g*Sin θ

Explanation:

Consider a uniform solid disk having mass M,  radius R and rotational inertia I  about its center of mass, rolling without  slipping down an inclined plane.

In order to get the linear acceleration of the object’s center of mass, aCM ,

down the incline,  we analyze this as follows:

The force of gravity (W = Mg) acting straight down  is resolved into components parallel and  perpendicular to the incline.

Since the object rolls without  slipping there is a force of  friction (Ff) acting on the object,  at it’s point of contact with the  incline, in the direction up  the incline.

Newton’s 2nd Law gives then for acceleration down the incline

∑Fx' = m*aCM   ⇒    m*g*Sin θ - Ff = m*aCM

The force of friction also causes a torque around the center of mass

having lever arm R so we can also write

τ = R*Ff = I*α

Solving for the friction,    Ff = I*α / R

This is used in the expression  derived from the 2nd Law:

m*g*Sin θ - Ff = m*g*Sin θ - (I*α / R) = m*aCM

The objects angular acceleration is related to the linear acceleration  of the edge that contacts the incline by

a = R*α

Since the object rolls without  slipping this has the same  magnitude as aCM so we have  that

α = aCM / R

Using this in

m*g*Sin θ - (I*α / R) = m*g*Sin θ - (I*(aCM / R) / R) = m*aCM

⇒  aCM = (m*g*Sin θ*R²) / (I + m*R²)

if I = (1/2)*m*R²   (for a uniform solid disk)

we get

aCM = (2/3)*g*Sin θ
