A deep-space vehicle moves away from the Earth with a speed of 0.870c. An astronaut on the vehicle measures a time interval of 3

.10 s to rotate her body through 1.00 rev as she floats in the vehicle. What time interval is required for this rotation according to an observer on the Earth

Answer:

t₀ = 1.55 s

Explanation:

According to Einstein's Theory of Relativity, when an object moves with a speed comparable to speed of light, the time interval measured for the event, by an observer in  motion relative to the event is not the same as measured by an observer at rest.

It is given as:

t = t₀/[√(1 - v²/c²)]

where,

t = time measured by astronaut in motion = 3.1 s

t₀ = time required according to observer on earth = ?

v = relative velocity = 0.87 c

c = speed of light

3.1 s = t₀/[√(1 - 0.87²c²/c²)]

(3.1 s)(0.5) = t₀

<u>t₀ = 1.55 s</u>

I need help with one question on my homework. This is on the Specific Heat Capacity required practical.
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

will mostly accord at the top of the boiling water my kind sir

Explanation:

Evaporation takes place only at the surface of a liquid, whereas boiling may occur throughout the liquid. In boiling, the change of state takes place at any point in the liquid where bubbles form. The bubbles then rise and break at the surface of the liquid.

the mass of a brick is 4 kg, find the mass of water displaced by it when completely immersed in water.​
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The correct answer is = 1.6

Explanation:

Density of water = 1000kg/m³ = d₁

Mass of brick = 4kg = m

Density of brick = 2.5 g/cm³ = 2.5 × 1000 =2500 kg/m³ = d₂

Volume of brick = m/d₂ = 4/2500 =16/10000 = 0.0016 L = v

Buoyant Force = v × d₁ × g          (g= acceleration due to gravity =9.8m/s²)

= 0.0016 × 1000 × 9.8 = 15.68 Newtons

By the Archimedes' Principle, the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by an object.

Weight of the water displaced=Buoyant Force

=Mass of water displaced × g,

as weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

15.68= mass of brick × 9.8

15.68/9.8 =Mass of water displaced

1.6 kg = Mass of water displaced

A current of 5 A is flowing in a 20 mH inductor. The energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is:_______
Kipish [7]

Answer:

C. 0.25J

Explanation:

Energy stored in the magnetic field of the inductor is expressed as E = 1/2LI² where;

L is the inductance

I is the current flowing in the inductor

Given parameters

L = 20mH = 20×10^-3H

I = 5A

Required

Energy stored in the magnetic field.

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 5²

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25

E = 10×10^-3 × 25

E = 0.01 × 25

E = 0.25Joules.

Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules
