A pursuit spacecraft from the planet Tatooine is attempting to catch up with a Trade Federation cruiser. As measured by an obser

ver on Tatooine, the cruiser is traveling away from the planet with a speed of 0.6c. The pursuit ship is traveling at a speed of 0.8c relative to Tatooine, in the same direction as the cruiser. What is the speed of the pursuit ship relative to the cruiser?

Answer:

0.384c

Explanation:

To find the speed of the pursuit ship relative to the cruiser you use the following relativistic equation:

u'=\frac{u-v}{1-\frac{uv}{c^2}}

u': relative speed

u: speed of the pursuit ship = 0.8c

v: speed of the cruiser = 0.6c

c: speed of light

You replace the values of the parameters to obtain u':

u'=\frac{0.8c-0.6c}{1-\frac{(0.6c)(0.8c)}{c^2}}=0.384c

Hence, the relative speed is 0.384c

V125BC [204]

5.610^-26 m  is closest to the wavelength of the light.

E=K.E - Work function

hc/λ=1.10-4.65

hc/λ=3.50

λ=hc/3.50

λ=6.626×10 −34J⋅s×3×10^8

λ=5.610^-26 m

Because the relationship between wave frequency and wavelength is inverse, gamma rays have extremely short wavelengths that are only a fraction of the size of atoms, whereas other wavelengths can reach as far as the universe. Regardless of the medium they travel through, electromagnetic radiation's wavelengths are typically expressed in terms of the vacuum wavelength, even though this isn't always stated explicitly.

The wavelength of electromagnetic radiation affects its behavior. The speed of light is equal to wavelength times frequency. Frequency multiplied by the Planck constant equals energy. 1/wavelength is the wave number in cm. Along with the wavelengths of different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum, a rough estimation of the wavelength size is displayed.

What are two ways you can increase power by climbing the stairs?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

change the

  • time
  • distance
  • force.

Explanation:

P = W/time

W = F*d

You have control over how fast you go up the stairs.

You also have control over how far up the stairs you go.

Therefore the answer is

  • time
  • distance

If you don't like distance as an answer, you can carry something up the stairs -- anything that increases F will do.

How does a Freebody diagram tell you about the net force an object?
Sloan [31]
So you subtract the numbers that are on the same axis. So if your gravitational force is 10 and your normal force is 5 you do 5-10 to get -5 since gravity acts downward
