Answer:

When an object moves its length contracts in the direction of motion. The faster it moves the shorter it gets in the direction of motion. The object in this question moves and then stops moving. So it's length first contracts and then expands to its original length when the motion stops. The speed doesn't have to be anywhere near the speed of light. When the object moves its length contracts no matter how fast or slow it's moving.

Why do planets orbit the sun (why don't they crash into the sun)?
Jobisdone [24]
Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pulls on the planets, just as we now understand Earth's gravity pulls down anything that isn't held up by some other force

Calculate the magnitude of the focal length and power of a spherical mirror that has a radius of 5.00 cm.
yarga [219]

Answer:

2.5 cm

40 D

Explanation:

When the radius of curvature of a lens is divided by 2 we get the focal length of the lens.

Focal length is given by

f=\dfrac{R}{2}\\\Rightarrow f=\dfrac{5}{2}\\\Rightarrow f=2.5\ cm

The focal length of the lens is 2.5 cm

When we divide 1 by the focal length in the unit of meters we get the power of a lens

Power of a lens is given by

P=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{0.025}\\\Rightarrow P=40\ D

The power of the lens is 40 D

Think of one example where Bob would need to calculate the net force on a person at the water park.
gregori [183]
Well Bob would need to calculate to net force of someone going down a water slide. Since the person is going down the slide, the person will go faster, depending on their mass/weight and the gravitational pull. As phrased in Newton’s Second Law.


Newton’s Second Law:
Newton's second law of motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.
