Gekata [30.6K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

15 miles /seconds

Explanation:

Distance = 600m

Time = 40 seconds

Speed=?

speed =  \frac{distance}{time}  \\ speed =  \frac{600}{40}

Simplify

\frac{600}{40}  =  \frac{60}{4}  \\  = 15

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

It is possible for sedimentary rocks to be converted to igneous rocks. Under conditions of high temperature and pressure, sedimentary rocks can be broken down into igneous rock by melting this rock type.

When the rock is broken down, it forms melt which when cooled and solidifies will form igneous rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are formed from the breaking down of pre-existing rocks through the action of weathering, erosion and sediment transportation. Within a basin, the sediments are compacted and lithified.

When this is subjected to intense pressure and temperature, the rock hardens and might further break down to melt.

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. You then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the

Before solving this question, first we have to understand the special theory of relative.

As per classical mechanics, the velocity of light will be different in different frame of reference. The light moves in the ether medium which exists every where in the entire universe.

Let us consider a body which moves with a velocity v. Let light is coming along the direction of the body. As per classical mechanics,the velocity of light with respect to the body will be [ c-v].

Let us consider that light is coming from opposite direction. Hence, the velocity of light with respect to the observer will be c+v.

From above we see that velocity of light is different in both the cases which is wrong.

As per Einstein's special theory of relativity, the velocity of light will be same in every frame of reference i.e c=300000 km/s.

As per the question ,the space craft is moving with a velocity 0.1 c.

We are asked to calculate the velocity of the light with respect to an observer present in Mars.

Considering Einstein's theory of relativity, the velocity of light will be c [300000 km/s] with respect to the person in Mars.
