If you go back in time to kill your grandfather, you would pop out of existence, but if you pop out of existence your grandfathe

r wouldn't die. but then you would pop back into existence to kill him again. so would it be an endless loop? help me figure this out

I bet that is actually true. But where in the world did you get this idea of?

No. That isn't specifically how time travel works.

When you time travel, you are taking your body from your current time and traveling through universal zones to go back to the specific time you wanted. You would just be absent from the present time as if you were at home, or something.
You would go back into time and you would have to be able to keep yourself hidden enough, because if anyone recognized you (such as family), it would alter time itself.
Along with, if you killed your grandfather then your parent (from such grandfather), may or may not exist, which could alter your own existence, changing time and space itself, altering the universe itself.

So no, it would not be an infinite loop. You would just be absent from your present time until you decided to return back to it.

zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

X=92.49 m

Explanation:

Given that

u= 21 m/s

h= 97 m

Time taken to cover vertical distance h

h= 1/2 g t²

By putting the values

97 = 1/2 x 10 x  t²          ( g = 10 m/s²)

t= 4.4 s

The horizontal distance

X= u .t

X= 21 x 4.4

X=92.49 m

A skydiver is falling at constant velocity. If a force of 600 N is pulling down on the skydiver, how much force must be acting u
skelet666 [1.2K]

Well, if the skydiver is at constant velocity, than there’s no acceleration, as stated by Newton’s first law. Thus the total net force would equate to 0. In order to make this statement true, the answer would have to be exactly 600 N.

The photon energies used in different types of medical x-ray imaging vary widely, depending upon the application. Single dental
pav-90 [236]

A) 5.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

The energy of an x-ray photon used for single dental x-rays is

E=25 keV = 25,000 eV \cdot (1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV)=4\cdot 10^{-15} J

The energy of a photon is related to its wavelength by the equation

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where

h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js is the Planck constant

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength

Re-arranging the equation for the wavelength, we find

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{4\cdot 10^{-15}J}=5.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

B) 2.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

The energy of an x-ray photon used in microtomography is 2.5 times greater than the energy of the photon used in part A), so its energy is

E=2.5 \cdot (4\cdot 10^{-15}J)=1\cdot 10^{-14} J

And so, by using the same formula we used in part A), we can calculate the corresponding wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{1\cdot 10^{-14}J}=2.0\cdot 10^{-11} m
