Answer:

same

Explanation:

Acc. to Einstien's postulate of special theory of

Relativity , Velocity of the light beam is same in all frames of references

(a) If the freight car is at rest

The frame we can assumed as Non - inertial frame  of reference s

In the inertial frame of reference , velocity  of the light beam  has its own value as : 3 x 10^8 m/s

(b) If the freight car is moving , the frame we can assumed as  Non -inertial frame of reference    

In thus case also , The velocity of the light beam  will also have  the same value as ; 3 x 108 m/s

A wave will "break" because ________. a wave will "break" because ________. the sediment load of water is greater near the shore
vodka [1.7K]
A wave will "break" because the bottom interferes with its oscillatory motion. Breaking of waves may occur anywhere that the amplitude is sufficient, including in mid-ocean. When waves enter shallow water they break because the motion of water in lower part of the wave nearest the bottom is slowed by friction so that their oscillation is faster than its supporting portion at the bottom. Thus, the wave collapses forward and breaks.

TEA [102]

Answer:

His third law states that for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction. In other words, if object A exerts a force on object B, then object B also exerts an equal and opposite force on object A. ... In reaction, a thrusting force is produced in the opposite direction.

Answer:

52

Explanation:

Tellurium is the element of the periodic table with atomic number 52.

The atomic number of a chemical element represents the number of atoms contained in the nucleus of the atom: therefore, this means that an atom of tellurium contains exactly 52 protons in its nucleus.

Tellurium is classified as a metalloid, having properties in between metals and non-metals, and it appears with a silver color.
