Something that moves faster than a light turning on. or 299 792 458 m / s and as the person put above in the coments

"<span>The speed of light in vacuum, commonly denoted c, is a universal physical constant important in many areas of physics. Its precise value is 299792458 metres per second (approximately 3.00×10⁸ m/s), since the length of the metre is defined from this constant and the international standard for time"

a trampoline launches a 50kg person 2m into the air. if the springs push with 1960N of force, how much displacement was there in

Lina20 [59]

Answer: 0.5 m

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the person is $m=50\ kg$

Trampoline launches the person into the air up to height of $h=2\ m$

Force experience by springs is $F=1960\ N$

Here, the work done on displacing the springs is equivalent to the Potential energy acquired by the person i.e.

$\Rightarrow F\cdot x=mgh\quad [\text{x=displacement of the trampoline}]\\\\\text{Insert the values}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{50\times 9.8\times 2}{1960}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{980}{1960}\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.5\ m$

A projectile is fired vertically from Earth's surface with

scoray [572]

Answer:

$h=25.52\times10^6 m$

Explanation:

Initial speed, v = 10 x 10^3 m/s

Mass of the earth, M = 6 x 10^24 kg

Radius of the earth, R = 6.4 x 10^6 m

Maximum from the surface of earth, h = ?

Let m = Mass of the projectile

Solution:

Potential energy at maximum height = ( Potential + Kinetic energy ) at the surface

$-G M m / ( R + h )=- G M m / R + (1/2) m v^2$

$- G M / ( R + h ) = - G M / R + (1/2) v^2$

$-2\times G M / ( R + h ) = ( - 2 G M / R ) + v^2$

$-2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}/ ( R + h )$

= $( (- 2\times 6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}) /(6.4\times10^6)} +10000^2$

= $-2.50625\times10^7 J$

$=- 8\times10^{14} / ( R + h )=-2.50625\times 10^7$

$R+h=31.92\times10^{6}$

$h=31.92\times10^{6}-6.4\times10^6$

$h=25.52\times10^6 m$

Why are you able to observe the Doppler effect on earth with sound waves but not with light waves?

VladimirAG [237]

Answer: When an ambulance passes with its siren blaring, you hear the pitch of the siren change: as it approaches, the siren’s pitch sounds higher than when it is moving away from you. This change is a common physical demonstration of the Doppler effect.

An electron is accelerated from rest through a potential difference. After acceleration the electron has a de Broglie wavelength

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

3x10⁴v

Explanation:

Using

Wavelength= h/ √(2m.Ke)

880nm = 6.6E-34/√ 2.9.1E-31 x me

Ke= 6.6E-34/880nm x 18.2E -31.

5.6E-27/18.2E-31

= 3 x 10⁴ Volts
