Who came up with the theory of relativity?

Physics

liberstina [14]3 years ago

Albert Einstein, in his theory of special relativity, determined that the laws of physics are the same for all non-accelerating observers, and he showed that the speed of light within a vacuum is the same no matter the speed at which an observer travels

A 0.20 kg baseball is traveling at 40 m/s toward the batter. The ball is hit by the bat with a force of 200N, and is
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Time, t = 0.015 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass, m = 0.2kg

Force, F = 200N

Initial velocity, u = 40m/s

Final velocity, v = 25m/s

To find the time;

Ft = m(v - u)

Time, t = m(v - u)/f

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Time, t = 0.2(25 - 40)/200

Time, t = 0.2(-15)/200

Time, t = 3/200

Time, t = 0.015 seconds.

Note: We ignored the negative sign because time can't be negative.

The world speed record on water was set on October
Luda [366]

Answer: Remember speed is distance divided by time, so if he travels 1000 m in 7.045 s, his speed is

(1000 m)/(7.045 s) = 141.9 m/s.

Note there are 1609 metres in a mile, or 1 mi = 1609 m, so m = 1/1609 mi, or

141.9/1609 mi/s = 0.08822 mi/s. Now, note that 1 h = 3600 s, so the speed is

0.08822*3600 mi/h = 317.6 mi/h.

From a set of graphed data the slope of the best fit line is found to be 1.35 m/s and the slope of the worst fit line is 1.29m/s
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Solution:

Let the slope of the best fit line be represented by 'm_{best}'

and the slope of the worst fit line be represented by 'm_{worst}'

Given that:

m_{best} = 1.35 m/s

m_{worst} = 1.29 m/s

Then the uncertainity in the slope of the line is given by the formula:

\Delta m = \frac{m_{best}-m_{worst}}{2}               (1)

Substituting values in eqn (1), we get

\Delta m = \frac{1.35 - 1.29}{2} = 0.03 m/s
