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

Which of the following statements about the force on a charged particle due to a magnetic field are not valid?
Vinil7 [7]
The correct answer is "None of the above; all of these statements are valid." All the statements namely, it depends on the particle's charge, it depends on the strength of the external magnetic field, it depends on the particle's velocity, and it acts at right angles to the direction of the particle's motion are all valid. Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.

A brick is 32cm long and 10cm wide. It weighs 16N and is lying on the ground. Find the pressure exerted by the brick on the grou
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Below

Explanation:

First, we need to convert the dimension from cm to m before plugging it into the equation:

     32 / 100 = 0.32 m

     10 / 100 = 0.1 m

You can use this equation to find the pressure exerted on the ground

     Pressure = Force / Area

Plugging our values in.....

     Pressure = 16 Newtons / (0.1)(0.32)

                     = 16 Newtons / 0.032

                    = 500 N/m^2

Hope this helps! Best of luck <3

In two or more complete sentences, explain how you can prove that the number of degrees that the Moon rotates around the Earth e
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Follows are the explanation to this question:

Explanation:

In this solution, it is defined that there are two principal motions for the moon, which are its revolution as well as rotation. In such a movement called revolution, its Moon is relocating around the Earth, in which the approximate movement of the moon from around earth has an average movement of about 13.2° per day, or 92 degrees every week, that's once in 27.3 days.

What is the density of a 2 gallon milk jug that has a mass of 2.0 kg? Answer should be in g/ml.
kirill [66]

volume of milk is given as

V = 2 Gallon

we will convert it into mL unit

V = 2 Gal = 7570.82 ml

mass of the milk m = 2kg

m = 2000 g

now for the density we can use

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

\rho = \frac{2000}{7570.82}

\rho = 0.264 g/mL

<em>so the density is 0.264 g/mL for above sample</em>

A room has a volume of 160 m3. An air-conditioning system is to replace the air in this room every 21.3 minutes, using ducts tha
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

A. 0.204203928 m

b. 0.1443939822

Explanation:

Givens:

Volume (V) = 160 m^3

velocity 1 (v1) = 3.00 m/s

velocity 2 (v2) = 6.00 m/s

Time (t) = 21.3 minutes = 1278 seconds

Side length = ?

V = A*v*t

A = s^2

V = s^2*v*t

s= \sqrt{\frac{V}{v*t} }

A.

s = \sqrt{\frac{V}{v*t} } = \sqrt{\frac{160}{3.00*1278} } = 0.204203928 m

B.

s = \sqrt{\frac{V}{v*t} } = \sqrt{\frac{160}{6.00*1278} } = 0.1443939822 m

I hope this helped!! Have a good day.
