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

Importance of liquid pressure
trapecia [35]

Answer:

hope it helps...

Explanation:

Both the water in the ocean and the air in the atmosphere exert pressure because of their moving particles. ... This causes greater pressure. Denser fluids such as water exert more pressure than less dense fluids such as air. The particles of denser fluids are closer together, so there are more collisions in a given area.

Not sure if it went through last time. Please help asap!
Olin [163]
The equation for force is F=ma. Because we have the value of mass (0.42 kg) and the acceleration (14.8 m/s^2), simply plug them into the equation for force to get
0.42 \times 14.8 = 6.22
The answer is 6.22 N because newtons are the unit used to measure force.

Assuming 84.0% efficiency for the conversion of electrical power by the motor, what current must the 13.0-V batteries of a 716 k
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

\mathbf{ current(I) =1766.67 \ A}

Explanation:

Given that:

The air resistance and friction = 700 N

The gravity caused force = 716 × 9.8 = 7016.8

Total force = (7016.8 + 700) N

Total force = 7716.8 N

∴

13 \times  current(I) \times 0.84 = \dfrac{7716.8 \times 300}{2 \times 60}

current(I) \times 10.92= 19292

current(I) = \dfrac{19292}{10.92}

\mathbf{ current(I) =1766.67 \ A}

La tension que se transmite en la cuerda BD es de 75 lb. Calcula el momento de fuerza generada por la cuerda respecto al punto C
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Mc = 1920[lb*in]

Explanation:

Para poder solucionar este problema debemos realizar un análisis estático, por tal motivo lo primero es realizar un diagrama de cuerpo libre con las respectivas fuerzas actuando sobre la barra ABC. DE igual manera calcular la geometría de la configuración mostrada.

El diagrama de cuerpo libre se puede ver en la imagen adjunta, con la solución de este problema.

Lo primero es determinar el angulo t, el cual por medio de las propiedades del triangulo rectángulo se puede determinar.

Con este angulo (t) ya determinado, fijamos la atención en el triangulo BCD, este triangulo no es rectángulo, pero por medio de la ley de senos podemos determinar el angulo omega.

Después de determinar el angulo omega, restamos el angulo (t) para poder determinar el angulo (a).

Seguidamente realizamos una sumatoria de momentos alrededor del punto C, utilizado las respectivas fuerzas con los ángulos descompuestos.

El momento en el punto C es de 1920 [Lb*in].

Nota: ya que no se menciona la fuerza en el punto A, esta se desprecia y no se tiene en cuenta en los calculos. En la imagen adjunta se puede ver el procedimiento desarrollado.
