Suppose you look at the huge clock on the Big Ben Tower in London and it reads 12 noon. If you could travel away from the clock

at the speed of light and view it with a telescope, it would: A. run slower than usual
B. run faster than usual
C. be frozen at 12 noon
D. running backwards

spin [16.1K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Option C. be frozen at 12 noon

Explanation:

This can be explained by the special theory of relativity according to which at greater speeds time slows down and length contracts in the direction of motion.

Also if a body travels at the speed of light time will stop and the body will will reduce to zero length.

Therefore, for the given case time will freeze at 12 noon.

A small glass bead has been charged to 8.0 nc. what is the magnitude of the electric field 2.0 cm from the center of the bead?
astraxan [27]
<span>Charge of the glass bead Q = 8.0 x 10^-9 C Distance d = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m Coulombs constant K = 8.99 x 10^9 Nm^2/C^2 Electric Field E = k x Q / d^2 = 8.99 x 10^9 x 8.0 x 10^-9 / (0.02)^2 E = 71.92 / 0.0004 = 17.98 x 10^4 The electric field is 1.8 x 10^5 N/C</span>

On Earth, a brick has a mass of 10 kg and a weight of 5 lbs. What predictions could we make about the mass and weight of the bri
belka [17]

Answer:

Mass remains constant but weight reduces

Explanation:

Mass is the amount of matter in an object so whether on moon or any other planet, it does not change despite the changes in acceleration.

Weight is a product of mass and acceleration due to gravity, expressed as W=mg where m is the mass, W is weight and g is acceleration. From the above formula, it is evident that when you decrease g, then W also decreases while m is constant. Similarly, when m is constant and g is increased then W also increases.

Therefore, for this case, since g decreases, the weight decreases but mass remains constant.

What are the difference between conductor and insulator? ​
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

  • A conductor allows energy e.g. electric charge or heat to pass through it easily. While an insulator does not let electric current or heat to travel through it.
  • Insulators have strong molecular bonds. While molecular bonds are very weak in conductors.
  • Insulators have very low conductivity. While in conductors, it is very high.
  • Insulators have a very high resistance and therefore the electrons are held together very firmly. The conductors, on the other hand, have a very low resistance.
  • Insulators do not have any electric field, neither inside nor on the surface. While in conductors, it is found on the surface and continues to be zero in the inner part of the conductor.
