Answer:

c' = - c

Explanation:

given data:

speed of rocket ship is 0.7 c

from the information given in the question, earth is rest and rocket ship pass the earth with velocity of 0.7c

speed of photon measured by physicists will be

by using lorentz transform equation we get

c' = \frac{(-0.7c) + (c+(-1_))}{1 - (\frac{-0.7c^2}{c^2})}

c' = \frac{-0.7c -c}{1+0.7}

c' = - c

A series of pulses of amplitude 0.25 m are sent down a string that is attached to a post at one end. The pulses are reflected at
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

0m

Explanation:

since the string is rigidly attached to the post, the reflected and incident pulses are of the same amplitude but different polarities. At the point where the two pulses meet, the amplitude will be the addition of that of the incident and the reflected pulses. i.e Amplitude= 0.25 + -0.25=0m

Gala2k [10]
Accuracy describes how close a measurement is to the truest value while precision shows how close the measurements are to one another when repeated analysis of the same measurements are performed. Precision most likely is free from any any variation.

The electric force between two charged balloons is 0.16 newtons. If the distance between them is doubled, what will the new forc
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>So we wan't to know what will the Coulomb force be between two charged baloons will be if we double the distance between the them and Fc=0.16N. The coulomb force between two charges is Fc=k*Q1*Q2/r^2. So we see from the equation that the magnitude of the force will be smaller as we increase the distance. So let's increase the distance from r to R=2r. If we input thai into the equation we get: Fc=k*Q1*Q2/R^2. Now: Fc=k*Q1*Q2/(2r)^2. And finally: Fc= k*Q1*Q2/4r^2. And if we factor out 1/4 we get: Fc=(1/4)*k*Q1*Q2/r^2. Now we can see that if we double the distance the magnitude of the force will be smaller for a factor of 1/4 or the magnitude of the force will be smaller 4 times. So finally the force is (1/4)*0.16N= 0.04N. So the correct answer is A. 0.04 newtons. </span>
