<span>From the point of view of the astronaut, he travels between planets with a speed of 0.6c. His distance between the planets is less than the other bodies around him and so by applying Lorentz factor, we have 2*</span>√1-0.6² = 1.6 light hours. On the other hand, from the point of view of the other bodies, time for them is slower. For the bodies, they have to wait for about 1/0.6 = 1.67 light hours while for him it is 1/(0.8) = 1.25 light hours. The remaining distance for the astronaut would be 1.67 - 1.25 = 0.42 light hours. And then, light travels in all frames and so the astronaut will see that the flash from the second planet after 0.42 light hours and from the 1.25 light hours is, 1.25 - 0.42 = 0.83 light hours or 49.8 minutes.
Answer:
B) Friction
Explanation:
Friction is a force that acts when an object is sliding along a surface. Microscopically, this force is due to the fact that the two surfaces are not perfectly smooth, but they have "imperfections" that cause a force that opposes the motion of the object.
For an object sliding on a flat surface, the force of friction has magnitude:
where
is the coefficient of kinetic friction
m is the mass of the object
g is the acceleration of gravity
The direction of the force of friction is always opposite to the direction of motion of the object.
In reality, friction also acts if the object is at rest and it is pushed by a force; in this case, we talk about static friction, and its magnitude is
where 
is called coefficient of static friction, and it is generally larger than the coefficient of kinetic friction.
Answer:
Explanation:
Initial kinetic energy of M = 1/2 M vi²
let final velocity be vf
v² = u² + 2a s
vf² = vi² + 2 (F / M) x D
Kinetic energy
= 1/2 Mvf²
= 1/2 M ( vi² + 2 (F / M) x D
1/2 M vi² + FD
Ratio with initial value
1/2 M vi² + FD) / 1/2 M vi²
RK = 1 + FD / 2 M vi²
Answer:
In chemistry, a nonmetal (or non-metal) is a chemical element that mostly lacks the characteristics of a metal. Physically, a nonmetal tends to have a relatively low melting point, boiling point, and density. ... Metalloids such as boron, silicon, and germanium are sometimes counted as nonmetals
