What is the force on a 1,000 kilogram-elevator that is falling freely under the acceleration of gravity only?
likoan [24]

           Force = (mass) · (acceleration)

                     = (1,000 kg) · (9.8 m/s²)

                     =      9,800 newtons

The motion of a car on a position-time graph is represented with a horizontal line. What does this indicate about the car’s moti
vodka [1.7K]

Answer;

A.It’s not moving.

Explanation;

Position-Time graphs display the motion of a object by showing the changes of velocity with respect to time.

The motion of a car on a position-time graph that is represented with a horizontal line indicates that the car has stopped moving.

A straight line with a positive slope indicates that the car is moving at a constant velocity, and thus the slope is constant. On the other hand, a curve with a changing slope, shows that the velocity is changing.

An armada of spaceships that is 1.60 ly long (in its rest frame) moves with speed 0.800c relative to the ground station in frame
miskamm [114]

Answer:

(a). The trip take a time is 3.61 year.

(b). The trip take a time is 3.96 year.

(c). The trip take a time is 8.73 year.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 1.60 ly

Speed of spaceships= 0.800c

Speed of messenger = 0.910 c

(a). We need to calculate the velocity of armada

Using formula of velocity

v'=\dfrac{v-v_{m}}{1-\dfrac{vv_{m}}{c^2}}

Put the value into the formula

v'=\dfrac{0.800c-0.910c}{1-\dfrac{0.800\times0.910 c^2}{c^2}}

v'=\dfrac{-0.11c}{1-0.800\times0.910}

v'=-0.404c

We need to calculate the length

Using formula of length

l=l'\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v'^2}{c^2}

Put the value into the formula

l=1.60\sqrt{1-(-0.404)^2}

l=1.46\ ly

We need to calculate the length of the trip

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{l}{|v'|}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{1.46}{0.404}

t=3.61\ year

(b). If the armada's rest frame

We need to calculate the length

Using formula of length

l=l'\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v'^2}{c^2}

Put the value into the formula

l=1.60\sqrt{1-(0)^2}

l=1.60\ ly

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{l}{|v'|}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{1.60}{0.404}

t=3.96\ year

(c). If an observer in frame S

We need to calculate the length

Using formula of length

l=l'\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v'^2}{c^2}

Put the value into the formula

l=1.60\sqrt{1-(0.800)^2}

l=0.96\ ly

We need to calculate the time

t=\dfrac{0.96}{0.910-0.800}

t=8.73\ year

Hence, (a). The trip take a time is 3.61 year.

(b). The trip take a time is 3.96 year.

(c). The trip take a time is 8.73 year.
