A clock on a moving train runs __________ an identical clock at rest.

Physics
1 answer:
katovenus [111]3 years ago
4 0

It depends who is watching it.

-- A passenger on the train says that his clock is normal, but the clock at the station he just passed is running slow.

-- A ticket agent at the station says that his clock is normal, but the clock on the train that just rolled through is running slow.

-- They're both correct, but ...

-- The difference is too small for either of them to notice, unless the train is going faster than about half the speed of light.

-- It isn't.

Two identical conducting spheres, A and B, carry equal charge. They are separated by a distance much larger than their diameters
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

C. \frac{3F}{8}

Explanation:

Let initial charges on both spheres be,q

F=\frac{Kq^2}{d^2}   \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \ \  \ \_i

When the sphere C is touched by A, the final charges on both will be,\frac{q}{2}

#Now, when C is touched by B, the final charges on both of them will be:

q_c=q_d=\frac{q/2+q}{2}\\\\=\frac{3q}{4}\\

Now the force between A and B is calculated as:

F\prime=\frac{k\times\frac{q}{2}\times \frac{3q}{4}}{d^2}\\F\prime=\frac{3F}{8}

Hence the electrostatic force becomes 3F/8

What is the power of a machine that pushes with a force of 3 n for a distance of 9 m in 8 s?
dalvyx [7]
The work done by the machine is equal to the product between the force applied and the distance over which the force is applieds, so in this case:
W=Fd=(3 N)(9 m)=27 J

And the power of the machine is equal to the ratio between the work done by the machine and the time taken:
P= \frac{W}{t}= \frac{27 J}{8 s}=3.38 W

A golfer tees off and hits a golf ball at a speed of 31 m/s and at an angle of 35 degrees. What is the horizontal velocity compo
Sever21 [200]
The horizontal component of the velocity of the ball is calculated by multiplying the speed by the cosine of the given angle. 
                        x-component of speed = (31 m/s)(cos 35°) 
                                                               = 25.39 m/s
Thus, the horizontal velocity component of the ball is 25.39 m/s.
