A support crossbeam on a high speed train is made from a titanium rod that has a length of 0.650m when measured by an observer o

n the train. The beam is positioned such that the observer on the train measures an angle of 39degrees between the crossbeam and the floor of the train. (Figure 1) At what speed u would the train have to be traveling in order for an observer standing outside the train to measure the angle as 83degrees ? In the figure, S indicates the reference frame of the observer standing outside the train and S' indicates the reference frame of the observer on the train.
The beam has two dimensions: a height that is perpendicular to the floor of the train and a width that is parallel to the floor of the train. The angle between the beam and the floor appears different as measured by observers on the moving train and on the platform for which of the following reasons?

A. The crossbeam is moving relative to the observer on the platform so the height appears contracted.
B. The crossbeam is moving relative to the observer on the platform so the width appears contracted.
C. The crossbeam is moving relative to the observer on the train so the width appears contracted.
D. The crossbeam is moving relative to the observer on the train so the height appears contracted.

Answer:

A) The crossbeam is moving relative to the observer on the platform so the height appears contracted.

Explanation:

The observer on the train and the beam are in the same reference frame. That means observer on the train will measure the proper length of the beam not the contracted length . the observer is outside and the plank is in the moving system,it will appear to be moving.

A train slows down as it pulls into a station. if the train is moving from your left to your right, what are the directions of t
navik [9.2K]

The directions of the vectors for velocity and acceleration are in the opposite directions.

  • The velocity vector is always in the direction of motion of the object. So, the direction of velocity is in the right from our point of view.
  • When there is a positive acceleration in the object the acceleration vector is in the direction of motion of the object. When there is a negative acceleration in the object the acceleration vector is in the opposite direction of motion of the object. So, the direction of velocity is in the left from our point of view.

Velocity vector is the rate of change of position of an object. Acceleration vector is the rate of change of velocity of an object.

Therefore, the directions of the vectors for velocity and acceleration are in the opposite directions.

irga5000 [103]

The distance covered is 25.9 m.

<h3>How deep is the cave?</h3>

We know that the speed of sound refers to the speed with which an sound moves in an object.

Given that;

speed of sound = 345m/s

Time taken =  0.15s

We know that;

v = 2d/t

v = speed of sound

d = distance

t = time taken

vt = 2d

d = vt/2

d = 345m/s *  0.15s/2

d = 25.9 m
