Why is traveling between the stars (by creatures like us) difficult?

Physics
1 answer:
mariarad [96]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Stars are at large distances that even light takes thousands of years to reach us from there.

for example, alpha centauri is 4300 light years away from earth and it is considered the nearest star to us, this means that light from there takes 4300 years to reach us and with a spaceships that can move with the speed of light is would take us 4300 years to get there which is imposible to live for that long.

hence, it is difficult to move between the stars.

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Point a

Explanation:

The potential energy of an object is given by :

P = mgh

m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height above ground level.

Potential energy is directly proportional to the position of an object.

In the attached figure, the maximum height is shown at point (a). It means it will have maximum potential energy at a as compared to b,c and d.

Two blocks a and b ($m_a>m_b$) are pushed for a certain distance along a frictionless surface. how does the magnitude of the
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

the magnitude of the work done by the two blocks is the same.

Explanation:

The work done by block a on block b is given by:

W_a = F_a d

where Fa is the force exerted by block a on block b, and d is the distance they cover.

The work done by block b on block a is given by:

W_b = F_b d

where Fb is the force exerted by block b on block a, and d is still the distance they cover.

For Newton's third law, the force exerted by block a on block b is equal to the force exerted by block b on block a, therefore

F_a = F_b

and so

W_a=W_b

If the period of a spring is 5 seconds what is the frequency
Scilla [17]

Answer:

C. 0.2 Hertz

Explanation:

The frequency of a spring is equal to the reciprocal of the period:

f=\frac{1}{T}

where

f is the frequency

T is the period

For the spring in this problem,

T = 5 s

therefore, the frequency is

f=\frac{1}{5 s}=0.2 Hz
