One event occurs at the origin at t equal to zero, and a second events occurs at the point x=5m along the x-axis at time with ct

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The separation will be spacelike.

The first event can't cause the second event, as there exist an frame of reference in which both happens at the same time, in different positions, so, if there were causally connected, it will imply an instant connection, this is faster than light.

Explanation:

We can define the separation between two events (using the + - - - signature) as :

$(\Delta s )^2 = (ct_2 - c t_1 )^2 - (x_2 - x_1)^2$

where the separation will be lightlike if is equal to zero, timelike if is positive and spacelike if is negative.

For our problem

$c t_1 = 0$

$x_1 = 0$

$ct_2 = 4 \ m$

$x_2 = 5 \ m$

$(\Delta s )^2 = (4 \ m - 0 )^2 - ( 5 \ m - 0)^2$

$(\Delta s )^2 = (4 \ m )^2 - ( 5 \ m 0)^2$

$(\Delta s )^2 = 16 \ m^ 2 - 25 \ m^2$

$(\Delta s )^2 = - 9\ m^2$

So the separation will be spacelike, and the first event can't cause the second event, as there exist an frame of reference in which both happens at the same time, in different positions, so, if there were causally connected, it will imply an instant connection, this is faster than light.

How does the Earth release energy back into the atmosphere?

JulsSmile [24]

In general, the Earth releases energy back to the atmosphere through reflection, evaporation, and radiation. The Earth gets energy from the sunlight, part of which it absorbs, while part it reflects backwards, thus giving energy to the atmosphere. Also, the heating up of the Earth by the absorbed sunlight, radiates back in the lower layers of the atmosphere, again giving back energy to it. The water vapor is another way in which the Earth gives back energy tot he atmosphere as through the evaporation, the water vapor gets into the lower parts of the atmosphere and gives energy to it.
