Does a calculation lose any information when converted from centimeters to meters? Explain

Physics
1 answer:
german3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

No

Explanation:

There are many units that are used to measure length of an object. For example centimeters, meters, millimeters etc.

There is a relationship between any of two units to measure lengths. If we want to convert some length from cm to m, it can be done as follows :

1 cm = 0.01 m

or

1 m = 100 cm

When we use this conversion, the calculation remains the same. Only the way to represent it will be different.

Hence, there is no lose of information when converted from centimeters to meters.

If a quasar is moving away from us at v/c = 0.8, what is the measured redshift?
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The measured redshift is z =2

Explanation:

Since the object is traveling near light speed, since v/c = 0.8, then we have to use a redshift formula for relativistic speeds.

z= \sqrt{\cfrac{c+v}{c-v}}-1

Finding the redshift.

We can prepare the formula by dividing by lightspeed inside the square root to both numerator and denominator to get

z= \sqrt{\cfrac{1+\cfrac vc}{1-\cfrac vc}}-1

Replacing the given information

z= \sqrt{\cfrac{1+0.8}{1-0.8}}-1

z= \sqrt{\cfrac{1.8}{0.2}}-1\\z= \sqrt{9}}-1\\z=3-1\\z=2

Thus the measured redshift is z = 2.

The potential difference between two equipotential lines 5.0 mm apart has a value of 1.2 V, calculate the electric field value.
jonny [76]

Answer:

The electric field value is 240 N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 5.0 mm

Potential difference = 1.2 V

We need to calculate the electric field value

Using formula of potential difference

\Delta V=Ed

E=\dfrac{\Delta V}{d}

Where, E = electric field

V = potential difference

d = distance

Put the value into the formula

E=\dfrac{1.2}{5.0\times10^{-3}}

E= 240\ N/C

Hence, The electric field value is 240 N/C

A thin layer of liquid methylene iodide (n = 1.756) is sandwiched between two flat, parallel plates of glass (n = 1.50). What mu
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

t = 96.1 nm

Explanation:

For strong reflection through liquid layer we know that the path difference between two reflected light rays must be integral multiple of wavelength

now we know that the path difference of two reflected light from thin liquid layer is given as

2\mu t - \frac{\lambda}{2} = N\lambda

here we know that

\mu = 1.756

t = thickness of layer

N = 0 (for minimum thickness of layer)

\lambda = 675 nm

now we have

2(1.756) t = \frac{675 nm}{2}

t = 96.1 nm
