Answer:

It’s a false statement.

Explanation:

An object which does not allow to pass light through is called as opaque object. It creates a shadow when light falls on it. While transparent object does allow to pass light though it and does not create shadow. From the above definitions, it is cleared that the given statement is false.

Suppose you are planning a trip in which a spacecraft is to travel at a constant velocity for exactly six months, as measured by

mylen [45]

Answer:

I must travel with a speed of 2.97 x 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

Sine the spacecraft flies at the same speed in the to and fro distance of the journey, then the time taken will be 6 months plus 6 months

Time that elapses on the spacecraft = 1 year

On earth the people have advanced 120 yrs

According to relativity, the time contraction on the spacecraft is gotten from

$t$ = $t_{0} /\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }$

where

$t$ is the time that elapses on the spacecraft = 120 years

$t_{0}$ = time here on Earth = 1 year

$\beta$ is the ratio v/c

where

v is the speed of the spacecraft = ?

c is the speed of light = 3 x 10^8 m/s

substituting values, we have

120 = 1/ $\sqrt{1 - \beta ^{2} }$

squaring both sides of the equation, we have

14400 = 1/ $(1 - \beta ^{2} )$

14400 - 14400 $\beta ^{2}$ = 1

14400 - 1 = 14400 $\beta ^{2}$

14399 = 14400 $\beta ^{2}$

$\beta ^{2}$ = 14399/14400 = 0.99

$\beta = \sqrt{0.99}$ = 0.99

substitute β = v/c

v/c = 0.99

but c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

v = 0.99c = 0.99 x 3 x 10^8 = 2.97 x 10^8 m/s

A sanding disk with rotational inertia 1.2 10-3 kg·m2 is attached to an electric drill whose motor delivers a torque of 10 N·m a

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Angular momentum = 0.7 kg.m²/s

Angular velocity = 583.3 rad/s

Explanation:

1. The torque τ is related to the angular momentum L by the relation

τ = ΔL/Δt

ΔL = τΔt

τ = 10 N. m

Δt = 70 ms = 70 × 10⁻³s

ΔL = (10 N. m) × (70 × 10⁻³s) = 700 × 10⁻³ kg.m²/s = 0.7 kg.m²/s

2. The rotational inertia I relates the angular momentum L to the angular velocity w

L = Iw

w = L/I

L = 0.7 kg.m²/s

I = 1.2 × 10⁻³ kg.m²

w = (0.7 kg.m²/s)/(1.2 × 10⁻³ kg.m²) = 583.3 rad/s

the force of a bag of potatoes on a vegetable stand is 22.5 N down. what is the force of the vegetable stand on the bag of potat

natima [27]

As per Newton's III law we can say that

Force applied by object 1 on object 2 is always equal in magnitude and opposite in direction of the force that object 2 apply on object 1.

So we can say it as

$F_{12} = -F_{21}$

now here above question is based upon the same

if a bag of vegetables applied a force F = 22.5 N of the surface stand the the same surface will apply same magnitude of force in opposite direction on the vegetables bag

So our answer will be F = 22.5 N (upwards).
