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>

Joanna claims that a large block of ice will cool a substance more than a small block of ice will at the same temperature. To su
Levart [38]

She puts each block of ice in the same 3000 mL beaker, each with 2000 mL of water at room temperature, and measures the temperature before and after adding ice. Therefore, small blocks of ice will have the same temperature.

Joanna puts two blocks of ice (one larger than the other) into separate cups and fills each with water. She compares the final water temperature of the two cups after each block of ice melts.

Put each block of ice in the same 3000 mL beaker, each at room temperature, put 2000 mL of water in it, and measure the temperature before and after adding ice. This way you keep the water at the same temperature in the beginning, then the temperature changes after you add the ice, giving you a better idea of ​​the final temperature reading.

Pls how to solve this problem. help would be appreciated ​
Bingel [31]

Answer:

80 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

a = -5 m/s²

v = 0 m/s

Δx = 640 m

Find: v₀

v² = v₀² + 2a(x − x₀)

(0 m/s)² = v₀² + 2(-5 m/s²) (640 m)

v₀ = 80 m/s

A snail travels 300 cm in 4 minutes.calculate speed of snail in m/s
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

\frac{0.0125m}{s}

Explanation:

In order to solve this question we need to know that  speed = \frac{distance}{time}. Then we need to convert 4 minutes into seconds and cm into m. We can do that by multiplying the number of minutes by 60 (because there is 60 seconds in one minute) and dividing the number of cm by 100 (because there is 100 cm in one m). So.......

4min = 4 x 60s = 240s

300cm = 300/100 m = 3m

Now we know that distance = 300m, and that the time = 4min = 240s ⇒

⇒ speed=\frac{distance}{time} = \frac{3m}{240s} = \frac{0.0125m}{s}
