Multiply it by a fraction equal to ' 1 ', like this:

(14.8 cm) x (1 meter/100 cm) = 14.8/100 = 0.148 meter

$1 cm = 0.01 m = 1 \cdot 10^{-2} m$
We can write it in this form:
$14 cm = 0.14 m = 14 \cdot 10^{-2} m$

A 2.0-kg mass is oscillating about the origin at 24 rad/s. The amplitude of the oscillations is 0.040 m. At what position is the

Darya [45]

Answer:

0.0327 m

Explanation:

m = 2 kg

ω = 24 rad/s

A = 0.040 m

Let at position y, the potential energy is twice the kinetic energy.

The potential energy is given by

U = 1/2 m x ω² x y²

The kinetic energy is given by

K = 1/2 m x ω² x (A² - y²)

Equate both the energies as according to the question

1/2 m x ω² x y² = 2 x 1/2 m x ω² x (A² - y²)

y² = 2 A² - 2 y²

3y² = 2A²

y² = 2/3 A²

y = 0.82 A = 0.82 x 0.040 = 0.0327 m

An unstable particle is created in the upper atmosphere from a cosmic ray and travels straight down toward the surface of the ea

german

Answer:

Q1) Time taking by particle to travel the 40 km wrt. earth = $1.34\times10^{-6}$ sec.

Q2) The distance traveled by particle where the particle created to surface of earth wrt. particle's frame = 3.84 km.

Q3) The time taking by particle to travel from where it is created to the surface of the earth = $1.285\times10^{-5}$ sec.

Explanation:

Given :

Speed of particle wrt. earth $v=0.99537c$

Distance between where particle is created and earth surface = 40 km

we know that,

⇒ $v = \frac{x}{t}$

Where $x = 40\times10^{3} m$ , $v = 0.99537c$ , we know speed of light $c = 3 \times10^{8}$

∴ $t = \frac{x}{v}$

$= \frac{40 \times10^{3} }{0.99537\times3\times10^{8} }$

$t = 1.34\times10^{-6} sec$

∴ Thus, time taking by particle to travel the 40 km wrt. earth $t = 1.34\times10^{-6} sec$

According to the lorentz transformation,

⇒ $l = l_{o} \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} }$

Where $l =$ improper length, $l_{o} =$ proper length (distance measured wrt. rest frame) = 40 km

$l = 40 \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2 }$

$l = 40 \times 0.096$

$l = 3.84$ km

∴ Thus, the distance traveled by particle where the particle created to surface of earth wrt. particle's frame = 3.84 km.

According to the time dilation,

$\Delta t = \frac{\Delta t_{o} }{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } }$

Where $\Delta t =$ improper time (wrt. earth frame time) $=1.34\times10^{-6} sec$ , $\Delta t _{o} =$ proper time (wrt. particle frame).

$1.34\times10^{-6} = \frac{ \Delta t_{o}}{0.096}$

$\Delta t_{o} = 1.285 \times10^{-5} sec$

Thus, the time taking by particle to travel from where it is created to the surface of the earth $= 1.285 \times10^{-5} sec$ .

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

A 40kg child throw stone of 0.5kg

At a direction of 5m/s

Recoil can be calculated using recoil of a gun formula

m_1•v_1 + m_2•v_2

m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2

The negative sign show that the momentum of the boy is directed oppositely to that of the stone

m_1 Is mass of boy

v_1 is the recoil velocity of the boy

m_2 is mass of stone

v_2 is the velocity of stone

Then,

m_1•v_1 = -m_2•v_2

40•v_1 = -0.5 × 5

40•v_1 = -2.5

v_1 = -2.5 / 40

v_1 = -0.0625 m/s

The recoil velocity of the boy is 0.0625 m/s
