A radiometer can be used to determine the position of an approaching hot object by measuring the amount of irradiation it detect

s. Consider a radiometer placed at a distance H 5 0.5 m from the x-axis is used to measure the position of an approaching small blackbody object. If the radiometer is measuring 80% of the irradiation corresponding to the position of the object directly under the radiometer (x 5 0), determine the position of the object L.

If I were to transmit a radio wave in our three dimensional world could a fourth dimensional “being” be able to receive it?
Morgarella [4.7K]
Depends. Are you talking about a mathematical 4th dimension (in which there is infinite dimensions) or some sort of etheral dimension (in which there is no scientific evidence for)

If you mean the first then yes. But it depends how these beings exist. From our understanding we only can theorize shapes in 4-d and if we assume that there is only one universe these "beings" arleady exist and thus any message in 3-d would be sent to them like a shadow ("flat").
If they exist in a alternate "plane" then you would need some method to transverse this plan and if u did, then we would easily be able to communicate, but we would at first sound like a wild animal. They either would ignore us, not understand or perceive us, or they would attempt to send back a signal (essential they are ET's)

IF you mean the second then thats some mystic stuff and its pretty creepy (although a fun read for me :P)

At a place where an object is thrown vertically downward with a speed of while a different object is thrown vertically upward wi
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Both objects will undergo the same change in velocity

Explanation:

m = Mass of the Earth =  5.972 × 10²⁴ kg

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

r = Radius of Earth = 6371000 m

m = Mass of object

Any object which is falling has only the acceleration due to gravity.

ma=\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 5.972\times 10^{24}}{(6.371\times 10^6)^2}\\\Rightarrow a=9.81364\ m/s^2

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.81364 m/s²

So, the speeds of the objects will change at an equal rate of 9.81364 m/s² but the change will be negative when an object is thrown up.

Hence, both objects will undergo the same change in velocity.

5/137 Under the action of its stern and starboard bow thrusters, the cruise ship has the velocity vB = 1 m/s of its mass center
quester [9]

The image is missing, so i have attached it;

Answer:

A) V_rel = [-(2.711)i - (0.2588)j] m/s

B) a_rel = (0.8637i + 0.0642j) m/s²

Explanation:

We are given;

the cruise ship velocity; V_b = 1 m/s

Angular velocity; ω = 1 deg/s = 1° × π/180 rad = 0.01745 rad/s

Angular acceleration;α = -0.5 deg/s² = 0.5 x π/180 rad = -0.008727 rad/s²

Now, let's write Velocity (V_a) at A in terms of the velocity at B(V_b) with r_ba being the position vector from B to A and relative velocity (V_rel)

Thus,

V_a = V_b + (ω•r_ba) + V_rel

Now, V_a = 0. Thus;

0 = V_b + (ω•r_ba) + V_rel

V_rel = -V_b - (ω•r_ba)

From the image and plugging in relevant values, we have;

V_rel = -1[(cos15)i + (sin15)j] - (0.01745k * -100j)

V_rel = - (cos15)i - (sin15)j - 1.745i

Note that; k x j = - i

V_rel = [-(2.711)i - (0.2588)j] m/s

B) Let's write the acceleration at A with respect to B in terms of a_b.

Thus,

a_a = a_b + (α*r_ba) + (ω(ω•r_ba)) + (2ω*v_rel) + a_rel

a_a and a_b = 0.

Thus;

0 = (α*r_ba) + (ω(ω•r_ba)) + (2ω*v_rel) + a_rel

a_rel = - (α*r_ba) - (ω(ω•r_ba)) - (2ω*v_rel)

Plugging in the relevant values with their respective position vectors, we have;

a_rel = - (-0.008727k * -100j) - (0.01745k(0.01745k * -100j)) - (2*0.01745k * [-(2.711)i - (0.2588)j])

a_rel = 0.8727i - (0.01745² x 100)j + 0.0946j - 0.009i

Note that; k x j = - i and k x i = j

Thus,simplifying further ;

a_rel = 0.8637i + 0.0642j m/s²
