A body moving at .500c with respect to an observer

Physics

lakkis [162]3 years ago

Answer:

0.8c and -0.14c

Explanation:

The first fragment will have a speed of +0.5c respect of a frame of reference moving at +0.5c

Lest name v the velocity of the frame of reference, and u' the velocity of the object respect of this moving frame of reference.

The Lorentz transform for velocity is:

u = (u' + v) / (1 + (u' * v) / c^2)

u = (0.5c + 0.5c) / (1 + (0.5c * 0.5c) / c^2) = 0.8c

The other fragment has a velocity of u' = -0.6c respect of the moving frame of reference.

u = (-0.6v + 0.5c) / (1 + (0.5c * 0.5c) / c^2) = -0.14c

a snail can move approximately 0.30 meters per minute.How many meters can the snail cover in 15 minutes ?
hichkok12 [17]
Sometimes if you have the word per, you need to multiply. In this problem, they are asking you to find the amount of meters a snail can travel per minute.They are giving you the amount of minutes, so in this case you multiply 15 times 0.30. The answer is 4.5 meters.

If the air temperature is greater than the surface (water or land) temperature, there will be a net transfer of thermal energy f
ruslelena [56]

The thermal energy will be transferred from the air to the surface. Hence, the answer is false.

Thermal energy can be transferred from higher temperatures to lower temperatures. It is obey the second law of thermodynamics

"At a very microscopic level, it simply says that if you have a system that is isolated, any natural process in that system progresses in the direction of increasing disorder, or entropy, of the system."

It means that heat energy transferred from the higher temperature and the lower temperature states will absorb heat energy from the surrounding. The thermal energy will be transferred through conduction, convection, or radiation.

Model rocket A is launched at an angle of 70° above the x axis, with an initial velocity of 40 m/s. An identical rocket B is lau
amid [387]
<span>A. Rocket A will travel farther horizontally than rocket B.

This is because from the x axis, 40 m/s at 90 degrees travels directly vertical. 40 m/s at 70 degrees is slightly horizontal, so it will travel further horizontally.</span>

A pen cap floats in a plastic lemonade 3/4 full of water vif you squeeze the bottle the pen cap sinks to the bottom if you then
elena-s [515]

Answer:

The pressure of the air molecules inside the pen cap increases and the volume occupied by the air decreases such that the combined volume occupied by the pen cap and the air volume reduces while the combined mass of the pen cap and the air molecules remain the same

Given that density = The mass/Volume, we have that the density varies inversely as the volume, and as the volume reduces, the density increases

Upon squeezing, therefore, as the new combined density of the pen cap and the air molecules rises to more than the density of the water in the bottle, then, the pen cap air molecule is relatively more denser than the water, which will result in the pen cap sinking to the bottom of the bottle
