Answer:

Given the speed of the 0.500c, the spacecraft is spherical.

Explanation:

The length of an object is contracted in the direction of the motion. It can be visualize that if a spherical body is contracted along a particular axial direction then the shape of the spherical body is seem to be in shape of a pillow, similarly the spherical spacecraft moves away and seems to be contracted along the direction of motion, so it becomes a round shape flattened along the direction of motion.

Two blocks are the same size one block has a higher temperature than the other. Which describes the thermal energy of these bloc
shepuryov [24]
The block that has a higher temperature describes the thermal energy of these blocks. Thermal energy is a measure of internal energy - therefore, the block with the higher temperature has more internal energy than the block with the lower temperature, meaning it's thermal energy is greater.

A CAR ACCElerates FROM REST To
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

<u>666.6 kW</u>

Explanation:

<u>Power Formula</u>

  • Power = Force × Velocity

<u>Calculating Force</u>

  • F = ma
  • F = m(v - u / t) [From the equation v = u + at]
  • F = 2,000 (50/7.5)
  • F = 2,000 (20/3)
  • F = 40,000/3
  • F = 13333.3 N

<u>Solving for Power</u>

  • P = 13333.3 × 50
  • P = 666666.6 W
  • P = <u>666.6 kW</u>
