Distance measurements based on the speed of light; used for objects in space

Physics
1 answer:
Vika [28.1K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer : Yes, distance measurements based on the speed of light used for objects in space.

Explanation :  A light year is measurement  of distance  that light travel in a one year.

In a one year light travels 9460000000000 kilometer.

We know that, speed of light is 3\times10^{8}\ m/s

and  time is 31536000 seconds in 1 year

so, distance = speed of light X time

Now, the light year is 9.4608\times10^{15} meter

Example : The nearest star to earth is about 4.3 light year away.

Two billiard balls move toward each other on a table. The mass of the number three ball, m1, is 5 g with a velocity of 3 m/s. Th
Ymorist [56]

This question involves the concepts of the law of conservation of momentum and velocity.

The velocity of the eight ball is "5.7 m/s".

According to the law of conservation of momentum:

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where,

m₁ = mass of number three ball = 5 g

m₂ = mass of the eight ball = 6 g

u₁ = velocity of the number three ball = 3 m/s

u₂ = velocity of the eight ball = - 1 m/s (negative sign due to opposite direction)

v₁ = final velocity of the three number ball = - 5 m/s

v₂ = final velocity of the eight ball = ?

Therefore,

(5 g)(3 m/s) + (6 g)(- 1 m/s) = (5 g)(- 5 m/s) + (6 g)(v₂)

v_2=\frac{34\ g.m/s}{6\ g}\\\\

<u>v₂ = 5.7 m/s</u>

<u></u>

A 265 g mass attached to a horizontal spring oscillates at a frequency of 3.40 Hz . At t =0s, the mass is at x= 6.20 cm and has
lara [203]

Answer:

The phase constant is 7.25 degree  

Explanation:

given data

mass = 265 g

frequency = 3.40 Hz

time t = 0 s

x = 6.20 cm

vx = - 35.0 cm/s

solution

as phase constant is express as

y = A cosФ ..............1

here A is amplitude that is = \sqrt{(\frac{v_x}{\omega })^2+y^2 }  = \sqrt{(\frac{35}{2\times \pi  \times y})^2+6.2^2 }  =  6.25 cm

put value in equation 1

6.20 = 6.25 cosФ

cosФ  = 0.992

Ф = 7.25 degree  

so the phase constant is 7.25 degree
