Two observers in different inertial reference frames moving relative to each other at nearly the speed of light see the same two

events but, using precise equipment, record different time intervals between the two events. Which of the following is true of their measurements?
(a)One observer is incorrect, but it is impossible to tell which one.
(b)One observer is incorrect, and it is possible to tell which one.
(c)Both observers are incorrect.
(d)Both observers are correct.

Answer:

The correct answer is d Both the observer's are correct

Explanation:

We know by postulates of relativity that laws of physics are same in different inertial frames.

Thus for each of the frames they make observations related to their frames and since the observations are true for their individual frames they both are correct. But when we compare the two frames we need to use transformation equations to compare both the results.

Which is the correct interpretation of the formula mgf2? the lattice contains 1 magnesium atom for every 2 fluorine atoms. the l
mixer [17]

Answer: the lattice contains 1 magnesium ion for every 2 fluoride ions.

MgF_2  is an ionic compound. It contains positive ions of Magnesium and  and negative ions of Fluorine. To balance the +2 positive charge of one magnesium ion, two (-1) negatively charged Fluorine ions are present. Hence, The correct interpretation of MgF_2  is that the lattice contains 1 Magnesium ion for every 2 Fluoride ions.

Think about the various energy sources such as the sun, fossil fuels, water, wind, and nuclear power. What is the energy source
lakkis [162]

Answer:

<em>The energy source that powers my home is gotten from burning of fossil fuels.</em>

<em>No! I do not like this energy source.</em>

<em>I personally would prefer solar source of electricity</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

<em>Fossil fuels are fuels gotten from the decomposition of dead organisms over time, under intense heat and pressure</em>. They are usually found buried beneath the earth's crust where they have been formed and trapped.

Most electricity generating stations generate electricity by burning fossil fuels like natural gas and gasoline to generate electricity. <em>The problem with fossil fuels are the various part that they play in increasing carbon footprints in the atmosphere. The excess carbon in the atmosphere has been a major contributor to the global warming of planet Earth.  </em>

My preference for solar energy source is first due to its abundance unlike the fossil fuels that are already diminishing in storage beneath the earth's crust. Also, <em>solar energy is a clean source of energy that does not leave any damage on earth from its use</em>. It also promises to be a cheap source of power in the future with advances in solar technologies.

What is the explanation for how a modern transmission electron microscope (TEM) can achieve a resolution of about 0.2 nanometers
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

A simple light microscope uses light for imaging of objects where as a transmission electron microscope uses a monochromatic beam of electrons.

This beam is passed by a magnetic field which is very strong and thus act as a lens.

Its resolution of very high which is about 0.2 nanometers because of the separation between two atoms.

Because of this reason its resolution is about 1000 times greater than light microscope.

A rod 7.0 m long is pivoted at a point 2.0 m from the left end. A downward force of 50 N acts at the left end, and a downward fo
kicyunya [14]

If the rod is in rotational equilibrium, then the net torques acting on it is zero:

∑ τ = 0

Let's give the system a counterclockwise orientation, so that forces that would cause the rod to rotate counterclockwise act in the positive direction. Compute the magnitudes of each torque:

• at the left end,

τ = + (50 N) (2.0 m) = 100 N•m

• at the right end,

τ = - (200 N) (5.0 m) = - 1000 N•m

• at a point a distance d to the right of the pivot point,

τ = + (300 N) d

Then

∑ τ = 100 N•m - 1000 N•m + (300 N) d = 0

⇒   (300 N) d = 1100 N•m

⇒   d ≈ 3.7 m
