Answer:
Primero, definimos el desplazamiento como la distancia entre la posición final y la posición inicial.
Así, si comenzamos abajo, luego subimos la escalera, y luego bajamos, la posición final y la posición inicial serán la misma
por lo que el desplazamiento es igual a cero.
La medida recorrida es el espacio total recorrido.
Es decir, si entre el principio y el final de la escalera hay una distancia D.
La persona que sube y baja, recorre esta distancia dos veces.
Entonces cuando una persona sube y baja la escalera, la medida de su trayectoria será 2*D.
Answer:
e) indicated that the speed of light is the same in all inertial reference frames.
Explanation:
In 18th century, many scientists believed that the light just like air and water needs a medium to travel. They called this medium <em>aether</em>. They believed that even the space is not empty and filled with aether.
Michelson and Morley tried to prove the presence and speed of this aether through an interference experiment in 1887. They made an interferometer in which light was emitted at various angles with respect to the supposed aether. Both along the flow and against the flow to see the difference in the speed of light. But they did not find no major difference and thus it became the first proof to disprove the theory of aether.
It thus proved that the speed of light remains same in all inertial frames.
Also, it became a base for the special theory of relativity by Einstein.
Answer:
Earth would continue moving by uniform motion, with constant velocity, in a straight line
Explanation:
The question can be answered by using Newton's first law of motion, also known as law of inertia, which states that:
"an object keeps its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external net force different from zero"
This means that if there are no forces acting on an object, the object stays at rest (if it was not moving previously) or it continues moving with same velocity (if it was already moving) in a straight line.
In this problem, the Earth is initially moving around the Sun, with a certain tangential velocity v. When the Sun disappears, the force of gravity that was keeping the Earth in circular motion disappears too: therefore, there are no more forces acting on the Earth, and so by the 1st law of Newton, the Earth will continue moving with same velocity v in a straight line.
Answer:
As an object moves faster, its mass increases. ... Because masses approach infinity with increasing speed, it is impossible to accelerate a material object to (or past) the speed of light. To do so would require an infinite force.
Answer:
a. an increase in the mass on the spring.
Explanation:
T = 2π/ω = 2π/√(k/m) = 2π√(m/k)
2π is a constant
as m is in the numerator, increasing mass will increase the period.
