Discuss how a photon (aka the light particle) can be affected by gravity despite being massless.

Physics
1 answer:
Over [174]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Light is clearly affected by gravity, just think about a black hole, but light supposedly has no mass and gravity only affects objects with mass. On the other hand, if light does have mass then doesn't mass become infinitely larger the closer to the speed of light an object travels.

Alicia está a punto de perder su bus. En un desesperado intento, corre a una velocidad constante de 5 m/s. Cuando está a 15 m de
pochemuha

Answer:

Si logra alcanzar el bus.

Explanation:

Para poder solucionar este problema debemos de tener en cuenta que Alicia corre a velocidad constante para poder alcanzar el bus. La formula de la cinematica que tiene en cuenta la velocidad constante es la siguiente:

x_{f} = x_{o}+(v*t)

donde:

Xf = Ubicacion del punto donde se encuentra el bus [m]

Xo = Ubicacion desde donde esta Alicia [m]

v = velocidad constante = 5 [m/s]

t = tiempo [s]

Xf - Xo = 15 [m]

15 = 5*t

t = 3 [s]

Ahora con el tiempo podemos encontrar la velocidad del bus por medio de la siguiente ecuacion de cinematica para la aceleracion constante:

v_{f} = v_{i}+(a*t)

donde:

Vf = velocidad del bus despues de los 3 [s]

Vi = velocidad inicial = 0

a = aceleracion = 0.5 [m/s^2]

Vf = 0 + (0.5*3)

Vf = 1.5 [m/s]

La velocidad del bus es menor que la velocidad de Alicia, por ende Alicia alcanzara el bus.

A 500kg elevator is raised to a height of 10 m in 10 seconds. Calculate the power of the motor.
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Correct answer: Third statement  P = 4900 W

Explanation:

Given:

m = 500 kg  the mass of the elevator

h = 10 m  reached height after t = 10 seconds

P = ? power of the motor

The formula for the calculating power of the motor is:

P = W / t

since work is a measure of change in this case of potential energy then it is:

W = ΔEp = Ep - 0 = Ep

In this case we must take g = 9.81 m/s²

Ep = m g h = 500 · 9.81 · 10 = 49,050 W ≈ 49,000 W

Ep ≈ 49,000 W

P = Ep / t = 49,000 / 10 = 4,900 W

P =4,900 W

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer: B. development of female sex

Development of female sex characteristic is not associated with the amount of cortisol in the body.

Explanation:

Cortisol is a steroid hormone secreted by the adrenal gland. It facilitates stress response, regulates blood sugar level and helps fight infections. High cortisol level leads to Cushing syndrome and low cortisol level leads to Addison disease.

Obesity is a  symptom of Cushing syndrome while weight loss is a symptom of Addison disease. Thus levels of cortisol can affect body weight as well.  When in a stressful situation, our body pumps excess cortisol.

Cortisol level in our body is generally high in the mornings and low in the midnight.
