The relationship if time according to the speed of light can be represented using Lorentz' time-dilation equation:
T = To / sqrt( 1 - (v^2/c^2) )
Where:
T = new time = ?
To = original time = 1 minute
v = velocity = 0.6c
c = speed of light
Substituting the given values:
T = 1 / sqrt( 1 - (0.6c^2/c^2) <span>)</span>
T = 1 / sqrt( 1 - (0.6^2) <span>)
</span>T = 1.25
Therefore, the alarm clock would ring for 1.25 minutes.
In physics, the rate of power in Watts could be determined by multiplying the voltage in volts, by the current in Amperes. In equation, that would be
P = IV
Substituting the values into the equation,
60 W = I*12V
I = 60/12
I = 5 Amperes
Therefore, a current of 5 Amperes is passing through the yellow wire.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
When light transitions from the air to the water the light bends due to refraction. The refractive index is related to the speed of light in both air and water. The Wikipedia article on Refraction does and excellent job of explaining this.
To find the radial velocity of the object we are going to apply the regular Doppler formula:
[measured wavelenght - rest wavelenght/ rest wavelenght] = V/C, where V is the radial velocity and C is the speed of light which is equal to 300,000km/sec.
[400 - 800/800] = V/300,000 = - 150,000.
This means that the object is moving at a velocity of 150,000km/sec toward the observer.
The minus sign infront of the answer indicates that the object is moving towards the observer while a positive value will indicate that the object is moving away from the observer.
