The proton from the decay of the neutron is moving at 0.75 c. An observer on the proton measures the radius of the electron as 1

Answer:

L₀ = 15.12 fermi

Explanation:

From Einstein's special theory of relativity's consequence of length contraction, we know that:

L₀ = L √(1 - v²/c²)

where,

L₀ = Length of the object (electron) measured by observer at rest = ?

L = Length of the object (electron) measured by observer in relative motion

L = 10 fermi

v = relative speed = 0.75 c

c = speed of light

Therefore,

10 fermi = L₀√(1 - 0.75²c²/c²)

10 fermi = L₀√(1 - 0.5625)

10 fermi = L₀√0.4375

10 fermi/0.66 = L₀

<u>L₀ = 15.12 fermi</u>

How does the value of gravity vary as you go:
iragen [17]

Answer:

Gravity changes with altitude. as we know The gravitational force is proportional to 1/R2, where R is your distance from the center of the Earth.

eg. The radius of the Earth at the equator is 6400 kilometers.

Let's say you were in a jet at the equator that was 40 kilometers high above the earth's surface.

What is the momentum of a 950 kg car moving at 10.0 m/s?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 9500 kgm/s</h3>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

<h3>momentum = mass × velocity</h3>

From the question

mass = 950 kg

velocity = 10.0 m/s

We have

momentum = 950 × 10

We have the final answer as

<h3>9500 kgm/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

You’ve made the hypothesis that the stepper the slope , the faster a ball will be rolling when it reaches the bottom .
BigorU [14]

Answer:

B) how steep the slope is

Explanation:

Because you have to know how is the influence of the steep of the slope in the time that a ball reaches the bottom. The steep of the slope is the variable that you would have to change in an experiment.

I hope this is useful for you

Un cubo de madera de densidad 0.780 g/cm³ mide 11.2 cm en un lado. Cuando se coloca en agua, ¿qué altura del bloque flotará sobr
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

2.464 cm above the water surface

Explanation:

Recall that for the cube to float, means that the volume of water displaced weights the same as the weight of the block.

We calculate the weight of the block multiplying its density (0.78 gr/cm^3) times its volume (11.2^3  cm^3):

weight of the block = 0.78 * 11.2^3  gr

Now the displaced water will have a volume equal to the base of the cube (11.2 cm^2) times the part of the cube (x) that is under water. Recall as well that the density of water is 1 gr/cm^3.

So the weight of the volume of water displaced is:

weight of water = 1 * 11.2^2 * x

we make both weight expressions equal each other for the floating requirement:

0.78 * 11.2^3 = 11.2^2 * x

then x = 0.78 * 11.2 cm = 8.736 cm

This "x" is the portion of the cube under water. Then to estimate what is left of the cube above water, we subtract it from the cube's height (11.2 cm) as follows:

11.2 cm - 8.736 cm = 2.464 cm
