Two helium-filled balloons are released simultaneously at points A and B on the x axis in an earth-based reference frame. Balloo

n A is to the left of balloon B. Which one of the following statements is true for an observer moving in the +x direction?
A. The observer sees balloon B released before balloon A.
B. The observer always sees the balloons released simultaneously.
C. The observer could see either balloon released first depending on her speed and the distance between A and B.
D. The observer sees balloon A released before balloon B.

Answer:

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

In this exercise you are asked to analyze the following situation: for a fixed observer, the two balloons are launched at the same time.

If the observer is mobile moving towards the positive side of axis ax we have several

possibilities when starting the movement

* the observer is to the left of the two balloons

* the observer is between the two balloons

* the observer is to the right of the two baloomls

The time it takes for the signal to arrive to know which ball goes first is

             v = d / t

             t = d / v

If the signal goes at the speed of light, the speed is a constant and the time will depend only on the distance, so we see that the trigger changes depending on the relative position between a given ball and the observer.

Consequently, it will be seen which comes out first, depending on the relative position with the observer.

           

The correct answer is C

Answer:

The extension is directly proportional to the force applied.

ex: if the force is doubled, the extension doubles. This works until the limit of proportionality is exceeded.

A rifle is aimed horizontally at a target 50.0 m away. The bullet hits the target 2.90 cm below the aim point. . . Whats the bul
Marina CMI [18]
The problem ask to calculate the bullet's flight time and the bullet's speed as it left the barrel. So base on the problem, the answer would be that the flight time is 0.076 seconds and the speed of the bullet is 657.9 m/s. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more if you have questions and further clarifications.

Bess [88]

Answer:

La presión neumática para levantar un automóvil de 17,640 newtons es 220,500 pascales.

Explanation:

Asumiendo que la presión (P), medida en pascales, tiene una distribución uniforme sobre la superficie del pistón, se calcula a partir de la siguiente expresion:

P = \frac{F}{A}

Donde:

F - Fuerza motriz, medida en newtons.

A - Área del pistón, medida en metros cuadrados.

La fuerza motriz es equivalente al peso del automóvil. El área del pistón (A), medido en metros cuadrados, es determinado por:

A=\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}

Donde D es el diámetro del pistón, medido en metros.

Si D = 0.32\,m y F =17,640\,N, entonces la presión neumática es:

A = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (0.32\,m)^{2}

A \approx 0.080\,m^{2}

P = \frac{17,640\,N}{0.080\,m^{2}}

P = 220,500\,Pa

La presión neumática para levantar un automóvil de 17,640 newtons es 220,500 pascales.
