Answer:

(a) \Delta t'=1.38\mu s

(b) \Delta x'=-389.46m

Explanation:

We use Lorentz transformations, since they relate the measures of a physical magnitude obtained by two different observers, these are:

\Delta x'=\frac{\Delta x-u\Delta t}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^2}{c^2}}}\\\Delta t'=\frac{\Delta t-\frac{u\Delta x}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^2}{c^2}}}

Here \Delta x is the spatial separation according to O, \Delta x' is the spatial separation according to O', \Delta t is the time interval according to O, \Delta t'  is the time interval according to O', u is the relative speed between the two observers and c is the speed of light.  All we do now is write the quantities we were given, recall that 1\mu s=10^{-6}s

(a)

\Delta t'=\frac{0.48*10^{-6}s-\frac{0.97c(45m)}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.97c)^2}{c^2}}}\\\Delta t'=\frac{0.48*10^{-6}s-\frac{0.97(45m)}{(3*10^{8}\frac{m}{s})}}{\sqrt{1-0.97^2}}\\\Delta t'=1.38*10^-6 s=1.38\mu s

(b)

\Delta x'=\frac{45m-(0.97*3*10^8\frac{m}{s})0.48*10^{-6}s}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.97c)^2}{c^2}}}\\\Delta x'=-389.46m

The minus sign means that the second event is closer for one observer and the first is closer for the other.

What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 113m in 29s?
Elza [17]
In this item, we are asked to determine the speed of the bobsled given the distance traveled and the time it takes to cover the certain distance. This can mathematically be expressed as,
                          speed = distance / time

Substituting the given values in this item,
                         speed = (113 m) / (29 s)
                         speed = 3.90 m/s

<em>ANSWER: 3.90 m/s</em>

Which of the following are characteristics of noble gases?

{ \bf{ \underbrace{Answer :}}}

\sf\red{B. \:They're\: inert.} ✅

  • An inert gas is one that does not undergo chemical reactions. The noble gases have complete outer shells, so they have no tendency to lose, gain, or share electrons. This is why they are said to be inert.

\sf\purple{D.\: They \:don't \:react\: with\: other\: elements.}✅

  • Noble gases are the least reactive of all elements. This is because they already have the desired eight total 's' and 'p' electrons in their outermost (highest) energy level.
