Answer:

a) The velocity of the light is invariant, this means that is always the same independent of the frame in which you are looking.

b) Inertial frames, this means that the frame is "not accelerating" (it can be fixed in place or moving with constant velocity)

C) When you are in the train, you are in the same frame than the clock, so you will no see nothing interesting, now, if you are outside of the train you will see a time dilation, this means that each "tick" of the clock is slightly longer than the one that the observer is holding. This happens because of the invariance of the speed of light, a way of seeing it is the next:

Suppose that the clock works sending a light signal, it travels a distance "d", it rebounds in a surface and comes to a receptor, when the photon hits the receptor, a "tick" of the clock is recorded, which would mean that a second has passed.

If the clock is still, the photon travels the distance d two times at a velocity c, so the "tick" of the clock is each "2d/c" seconds.

Now, in the moving clock, the distance that the photon moves is slightly higher (because now it also moves with the clock) suppose that this distance is D, so now the time is "2D/c", which will be bigger than the one that we had before.

a) It is absolute, so it does not change.

b) Inertial ones.

c) Inside the train the time will slow down relatively to the outside clock. So if one travel at nearly the speed if light for 2 hours on his clock, for outdoor observers it will look like 3 hours.

At a certain location, Earth has a magnetic field of 0.60 ✕ 10−4 T, pointing 75° below the horizontal in a north-south plane. A
saveliy_v [14]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Magnetic field,B=0.6\times 10^{-4} T

\theta=75^{\circ}

Length of wire,l=15 m

Current,I=19 A

a.We have to find the magnitude of magnetic force and direction of magnetic force.

Magnetic force,F=IBlsin\theta

Using the formula

F=0.6\times 10^{-4}\times 15\times 19sin75

F=16.5\times 10^{-3} N

Direction=tan\theta=cot(90-75)=tan15^{\circ}

\theta=15^{\circ}

15 degree above the horizontal  in the northward direction.
