The only thing that makes the liquid of the thermometer rises up is that the temperature of the water is higher than the temperature of the liquid of the thermometer and a heat transfer process takes place from the water to the liquid of the thermometer by convection.

Two particles in a high-energy accelerator experiment are approaching each other head-on, each with a speed of 0.9520c as measur
Over [174]

Answer:

the magnitude of the velocity of one particle relative to the other is 0.9988c

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Velocities of the two particles = 0.9520c

Using Lorentz transformation

Let relative velocity be W, so

v_r = ( u + v ) / ( 1 + ( uv / c²) )

since each particle travels with the same speed,

u = v

so

v_r = ( u + u ) / ( 1 + ( u×u / c²) )  

v_r = 2(0.9520c) / ( 1 + ( 0.9520c )² / c²) )  

we substitute

v_r = 1.904c / ( 1 + ( (0.906304 × c² ) / c²) )  

v_r = 1.904c / ( 1 + 0.906304 )

v_r = 1.904c / 1.906304

v_r = 0.9988c

Therefore, the magnitude of the velocity of one particle relative to the other is 0.9988c

Why does immersion oil improve resolution?
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

d. It increases numerical aperture and maintains a uniform light speed.

Explanation:

In optical microscopes, various immersion mediums are used to improve or enhance the resolution. Immersion oils like cedar and Leica oils are one of those mediums which are used to improve resolution by increasing the numerical aperture and keeping the speed of light uniform.

Use the definition of scalar product, a overscript right-arrow endscripts times b overscript right-arrow endscripts = ab cos θ,
makkiz [27]

Answer: \theta=cos^{-1}0.991=7.69^o

The following vectors have been given: \vec{a}=3.0\widehat{i}+3.0\widehat{j}+3.0\widehat{k}\\ \vec{b}=5.0\widehat{i}+7.0\widehat{j}+6.0\widehat{k}

The angle between these two vectors can be found by:

cos\theta=\frac{\vec{a}.\vec{b}}{||\vec{a}|| ||\vec{b}||}\\
||\vec{a}=\sqrt{a_x^2+a_y^2+a_z^2}

\vec{a}.\vec{b}=a_xb_x+a_yb_y+a_zb_z\\ \vec{a}.\vec{b}=3\times5+3\times7+3\times6=15+21+18=54

||\vec{a}||=\sqrt{3^2+3^2+3^2}=\sqrt{27}\\ ||\vec{b}||=\sqrt{5^2+7^2+6^2}=\sqrt{110}

cos\theta=\frac{54}{\sqrt{27}\times\sqrt{110}}\\=0.991\\ \Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}0.991=7.69^o

A hair dryer draws a current of 10 A plugged into a 120 V outlet. What is the resistance of the hair dryer?
Ganezh [65]
<span>This problem can be solved by the formula used to find resistance. The formula is R=V/I which basically means divide the Voltage by the Current to find the Resistance in an object. Ohm's law.</span>
