Answer:

e see that the distances are different, the only way that the two beams of light approach simultaneously is that event 2 (farthest) occurs first than event 1

Explanation:

This is an ejercise in special relativity, where the speed of light is constant.

Let's carefully analyze the approach, we see the two events at the same time.

The closest event time is

       c = (x₁-300) / t

       t = (x₁-300) / c

The time for the other event is

       t = (x₂- 600) / c

since they tell us that we see the events simultaneously, we can equalize

        (x₁ -300) / c = (x₂ -600) / c

         x₁ = x₂ - 300

We see that the distances are different, the only way that the two beams of light approach simultaneously is that event 2 (farthest) occurs first than event 1

Answer:

5m/s to the right

Explanation:

Momentum = mass * velocity

Momentum before = momentum after

m₁u₁+m₂u₂ = m₁v₁+m₂v₂

3000*10 + 1000*0 = 3000*v₁ + 1000*15

30000-15000=3000v₁

15000=3000v₁

v₁=5m/s to the right (to the right because answer is positive)

A truck is traveling 20m/s accelerates 3 m/s^2 for 4 seconds how far did it travel while it was accelerating. Using guess method

<h3>\huge\underline\bold\blue{ƛƝƧƜЄƦ}</h3><h3>Given</h3>

\blue\star v = 20m\s

\blue\star a = 3m\s^2

\blue\star t = 4sec

Firstly we have to find u

\star a = \dfrac{v - u}{t}

\star 3m\s =\dfrac{20 - u}{4}

\star12m\s = 20 - u

\star20 - u = 12m\s

\star- u = -8

\star u = 8

Now we can easily find distance by using second equation of motion

\red\stars = ut + 1\2 at^2

\red\stars = 8(4) + 1\2(3)(16)

\red\stars = 32 + 24

\red\stars = 56

So distance is 56 m\s hope it helps

Answer:

D) 735 J(oules)

Explanation:

Work is defined as force * distance

Force is defined as mass * acceleration

Given a mass of 15 kg and a gravitational acceleration of 9.8 m/s² since the box is being lifted up, the force being applied to the box is 15 kg * 9.8 m/s² = 147 N

Since the distance is 5 meters, the work done is 147 N * 5 m = 735 N/m = 735 J, making D the correct answer.

Why is the ocean warmer than the air at night
Sliva [168]

You see, during the day the ocean collects heat from the sun. So the air above the ocean get warm at night, but the rest of the air on the land gets cooler because water has the ability to collect energy from the Sun.
