Given:
The mass of the halfback is m = 107 kg
The speed of the halfback is v = 8 m/s
To find the momentum.
Explanation:
The momentum of the halfback is
Thus, the momentum of the halfback is 856 kg m/s
When two black holes spiral around each other and ultimately collide, they send out gravitational waves - ripples in space and time that can be detected with extremely sensitive instruments on Earth. ... If confirmed, it would be the first known light flare from a pair of colliding black holes.
Answer:
The time taken by missile's clock is 
Solution:
As per the question:
Speed of the missile, 
Now,
If 'T' be the time of the frame at rest then the dilated time as per the question is given as:
T' = T + 1
Now, using the time dilation eqn:
(1)
Using binomial theorem in the above eqn:
We know that:
Thus eqn (1) becomes:
Now, putting appropriate values in the above eqn:
Answer:
15.7 m
Explanation:
m = mass of the sled = 125 kg
v₀ = initial speed of the sled = 8.1 m/s
v = final speed of sled = 0 m/s
F = force applied by the brakes in opposite direction of motion = 261
d = stopping distance for the sled
Using work-change in kinetic energy theorem
- F d = (0.5) m (v² - v₀²)
- (261) d = (0.5) (125) (0² - 8.1²)
d = 15.7 m
Nitrogen is the most abundant of the gases present in the atmosphere. 78 percent of the atmospheric air comprises of nitrogen, oxygen makes up for 21 percent and all other gases make up for the remaining one percent. Oxygen is a highly flammable gas and in the absence of nitrogen it would not have been possible to utilize this atmospheric oxygen, hence the presence of nitrogen reduces its flammability and also neutralizes the toxicity of other gases.
