As an object accelerates to a speed close to the speed of light, which of the following stays the same?

Physics

Answer: Option A, speed of light.

Explanation: As the object reaches the speed of light, the length of the object will contract, this is called the Lorentz contraction. Also, the object will experience the time slower than if it were at rest, so an observer and the object will experience the time in a different way, and because of this the "rate of time passage" changes, so we already discarded option B, C, and D.

Now, the speed of the light is invariant, it is the same in any system and is a "physical constant", so it would not change, then the correct option is A.

A train travels 120 km in 2 hours and 30 minutes. What is its average speed?
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

13.33 or 13 1/3m/s (meters per second)

Explanation:

In physics, we use the basic units of meters and seconds. So first convert (km) into meters (m) and also hours and minutes into seconds (s). We end up with 120000m and 9000s. Then divide the 120000m by the 9000s and you end up with 13.33 or 13 1/3 m/s.

It would last as long as the applied force continued, or until the accelerating object hit something.

How do sea surface temperatures affect evaporation rate?
kotegsom [21]
<span>Answer: The temperature doesn't affect the evaporation rate, but affects on how much of water a parcel of air can contain when saturated which is known by the absolute humidity. Hurricanes are usually happening when the temperature of the sea water west of the Cape Verde islands is over 27 degrees Celsius. If ahead of the path of a hurricane, the sea water temperature drops then it will be less moisture in the air and perhaps the hurricane will fade out. But it is not as simple. How strong a tropical storm is is relative to the difference of temperture between ground level and the top of the troposphere. The greater the difference, the faster the air will rise and the deeper the pressure will be, forcing surrounding air to rush in, thus forming a hurricane force wind. Then there is the fact that the wet adiabatic lapse rate is about half that of dry air. It means that rising moist air cools down slower and therefore rises higher. Hence water is the true fuel of bad weather. But it can't be isolated from the fact that the difference of temperature must be great too. What we often forget is that the tropopause (the border to the stratosphere) is much higher over the equator and therefore, much colder than e.g. the poles.</span>

Two beams of coherent light are shining on the same piece of white paper. with respect to the crests and troughs of such waves,
defon

Answer:

"where crests and troughs have their maxima at the same time"

Crests and troughs are 180 deg out of phase and when they have their maxima at the same time and place, their net contribution will be zero"
