A special vehicle of length 50 m is designed to take passengers at extremely high speeds between different places on earth.

Physics

olga nikolaevna [1]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a)

5.97\times 10^{7} ms⁻¹

b)

0.0021  sec

Explanation:

(a)

L_{o} = Actual length of the vehicle = 50 m

L = length measured by the earthbound observer = 49 m

v = speed of the vehicle

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ ms⁻¹

Length measured by the earthbound observer is given as

L = L_{o}\sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{c} \right )^{2}}

49 = 50 \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}}

0.98 = \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}}

0.9604 = 1 - \left ( \frac{v}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}

0.396 = \left ( \frac{v}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}

v = 5.97\times 10^{7} ms⁻¹

b)

d = distance traveled = 6000 km = 6 x 10⁶ m

t = time measured by a clock on the vehicle

t' = time measured by a clock on the earth

Time measured by a clock on the vehicle  is given as

t = \frac{d}{v}

t = \frac{6\times 10^{6}}{5.97\times 10^{7}}

t = 0.1006 sec

Time measured by a clock on the earth is given as

t = t'\sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{c} \right )^{2}}

0.1006 = t'\sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{5.97\times 10^{7}}{3\times 10^{8}} \right )^{2}}

t' = 0.1027 sec

\Delta t = time difference

Time difference is given as

\Delta t = t' - t

\Delta t = 0.1027 - 0.1006

\Delta t = 0.0021

\Delta t = 0.0021  sec

Why is Earth’s North Pole a geographic north pole but a south seeking pole magnetically?
natima [27]

Answer:It is actually the South Magnetic pole

Explanation:The magnetic pole near earth's geographic north pole is actually the south magnetic pole. When it comes to magnets, opposites attract. This fact means that the north end of a magnet in a compass is attracted to the south magnetic pole, which lies close to the geographic north pole.

A transformer has two sets of coils, the primary with N1 = 160 turns and the secondary with N2 = 1400 turns. The input rms volta
vovikov84 [41]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the voltage in a coil, through the percentage relationship that exists between the voltage and the number of turns it has.

So things our data are given by

N_1 = 160

N_2 = 1400

\Delta V_{1rms} = 62V

PART A) Since it is a system in equilibrium the relationship between the two transformers would be given by

\frac{N_1}{N_2} = \frac{\Delta V_{1rms}}{\Delta V_{2rms}}

So the voltage for transformer 2 would be given by,

\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{N_2}{N_1} \Delta V_{1rms}

PART B) To express the number value we proceed to replace with the previously given values, that is to say

\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{N_1}{N_2} \Delta V_{1rms}

\Delta V_{2rms} = \frac{1400}{160} 62V

\Delta V_{2rms} = 1446.66V

Two boxes are at rest on a smooth, horizontal surface. The boxes are in contact with one another. If box 1 is pushed with a forc
Maslowich

Answer:

mass of box 1 = 2.20 kg

mass of box 2 = 5.93 kg

Explanation:

Let the mass of box 1 and box 2 is respectively

m_1 and m_2

so we will have

Force applied on box 1 then acceleration

a = \frac{F}{m_1 + m_2}

1.50 = \frac{12.2}{m_1 + m_2}

m_1 + m_2 = 8.13

Now we know that contact force between them in above case is given as

F_n = m_2a

8.90 = m_2(1.5)

m_2 = 5.93 kg

now we have

m_1 = 2.20 kg
