A rocket travels in the x-direction at speed 0.70c with respect to the earth. An experimenter on the rocket observes a collision

marishachu [46]

Answer:

A) The space time coordinate x of the collision in Earth's reference frame is

$x \approx 103,46x10^{9}m$ .

B) The space time coordinate t of the collision in Earth's reference frame is

$t=377,29s$

Explanation:

We are told a rocket travels in the x-direction at speed v=0,70 c (c=299792458 m/s is the exact value of the speed of light) with respect to the Earth. A collision between two comets is observed from the rocket and it is determined that the space time coordinates of the collision are (x',t') = (3.4 x 10¹⁰ m, 190 s).

An event indicates something that occurs at a given location in space and time, in this case the event is the collision between the two comets. We know the space time coordinates of the collision seen from the reference frame of the rocket and we want to find out the space time coordinates in Earth's reference frame.

Lorentz transformation

The Lorentz transformation relates things between two reference frames when one of them is moving with constant velocity with respect to the other. In this case the two reference frames are the Earth and the rocket that is moving with speed v=0,70 c in the x axis.

The Lorentz transformation is

$x'=\frac{x-vt}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

$y'=y$

$z'=z$

$t'=\frac{t-\frac{v}{c^{2}}x}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

prime coordinates are the ones from the rocket reference frame and unprimed variables are from the Earth's reference frame. Since we want position x and time t in the Earth's frame we need the inverse Lorentz transformation. This can be obtained by replacing v by -v and swapping primed an unprimed variables in the first set of equations

$x=\frac{x'+vt'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

$y=y'$

$z=z'$

$t=\frac{t'+\frac{v}{c^{2}}x'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

First we calculate the expression in the denominator

$\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}=\frac{(0,70)^{2}c^{2}}{c^{2}} =(0,70)^{2}$

$\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}} =0,714$

then we calculate t

$t=\frac{t'+\frac{v}{c^{2}}x'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

$t=\frac{190s+\frac{0,70c}{c^{2}}.3,4x10^{10}m}{0,714}$

$t=\frac{190s+\frac{0,70c .3,4x10^{10}m}{299792458\frac{m}{s}}}{0,714}$

$t=\frac{190s+79,388s}{0,714}$

finally we get that

$t=377,29s$

then we calculate x

$x=\frac{x'+vt'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

$x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+0,70c.190s}{0,714}}$

$x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+0,70.299792458\frac{m}{s}.190s}{0,714}}$

$x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+39872396914m}{0,714}}$

$x=\frac{73872396914m}{0,714}}$

$x=103462740775,91m$

finally we get that

$x \approx 103,46x10^{9} m$

A _____________ is a system that uses vertical posts which are separated to support a horizontal beam. A. Truss c. Post-and-lint

IgorC [24]

A Post-and-lintel is a system that uses vertical posts which are separated to

support a horizontal beam.

A Post-and-lintel system is commonly used in architecture and involves the

system where horizontal structures are held by vertical ones with the

presence of spaces between them.

In this scenario, we were told the system uses vertical posts which are

separated to support a horizontal beam which makes Post-and-lintel the

most appropriate choice.

How to find acceleration in non uniform motion. Please give two ways

Olenka [21]

The two ways to find acceleration in non uniform motion are as follows:

By Graphs
By Calculus

Explanation:

Non-uniform acceleration comprises the most common description of motion. Acceleration refers to the rate of changes of velocity per unit time. Basically, it implies that acceleration changes during motion. This variety can be communicated either as far as position (x) or time (t).

Accordingly, non-uniform acceleration motion can be carried out in 2 ways:

By Calculus
By graphs

Calculus analysis is general and accurate, but limited to the availability of speed and acceleration expressions. It is not always possible to get the expression of motion attributes in the form "x" or "t". On the other hand, the graphic method is not accurate enough, but it can be used accurately if the graphic has the correct shapes.

The use of calculations involves differentiation and integration. Integration enables evaluation of the expression of acceleration of speed and expression of movement at a distance. Similarly, differentiation allows us to evaluate expression of speed position and expression speed to acceleration.
