Answer:

0.85 c

Explanation:

When the two travel at right angles to each other , their relative velocity is given by the hypotenuse formed by the x and y direction velocities.

Relative velocity of the two protons is  given as

\sqrt{v^{2}+v^{2}} = (\sqrt{2} ) v

If v = 3/5 c , then the relative speed = \sqrt{2} (3/5c) =0.85 c

kobusy [5.1K]

The carnot cycle attempts to model the most efficient possible process by avoiding irreversible processes.

In essence, the Carnot cycle is a reversible cycle made up of four other reversible processes. A reversible process is one that can be thought of as consisting of a sequence of equilibrium stages because it is carried out endlessly slowly.

Essentially, this means that any reversible cycle can be performed in reverse and that the amount of work or heat exchanged along the forward and backward pathways is the same.

It goes without saying that such reversible processes are not possible because they would take an unlimited amount of time. Therefore, the Carnot Engine is described as an idealized heat engine that uses the Carnot Cycle, a reversible cycle.

A car accelerates from 20mi/hr to 60mi/hr. How many times greater is the car's kinetic energy at the higher speed compared to th
Ainat [17]

Answer:

9 times

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is:

KE = ½ mv²

When we triple the velocity, the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 9.

9KE = ½ m(3v)²
