Which of the following are inertial reference frames? A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road. B. A car dr
Aloiza [94]

Answers:

A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road.

B. A car driving at steady speed up a 10∘ incline.

Explanation:

An object is said to be in an inertial reference frame if the net force acting on the object is zero. According to Newton's second law, this also means that the acceleration of the object is also zero:

F=ma

Since F=0, a=0 as well.

Let's now analyze each case.

A. A car driving at steady speed on a straight and level road. --> YES: this is an inertial reference frame, because the car is keeping a constant speed and a constant direction, so its velocity is not changing, and its acceleration is zero.

B. A car driving at steady speed up a 10∘ incline. --> YES: this is an inertial reference frame, because the car is keeping a constant speed and a constant direction, so its velocity is not changing, and its acceleration is zero.

C. A car speeding up after leaving a stop sign. --> NO: this is not an intertial reference frame, because the car is speeding up, so it is accelerating.

D. A car driving at steady speed around a curve. --> NO: this is not an inertial reference frame, because the car is changing direction, therefore its velocity is changing and so the car is accelerating.

So the only two choices which are correct are A and B.

An unstable particle at rest breaks up into two fragments of unequal mass. The mass of the lighter fragment is equal to 2.90 ✕ 1
motikmotik

Answer:

The speed of the heavier fragment is 0.335c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the lighter fragment M_{l}=2.90\times10^{-28}\ kg

Mass of the heavier fragment M_{h}=1.62\times10^{-27}\ Kg

Speed of lighter fragment = 0.893c

We need to calculate the speed of the heavier fragment

Let v is the speed of the second fragment after decay

Using conservation of relativistic momentum

0=\drac{m_{1}v_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}-\drac{m_{2}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}

\drac{m_{1}v_{1}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}=\drac{m_{2}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{c^2}}}

\dfrac{2.90\times10^{-28}\times0.893c}{\sqrt{1-(0.893)^2}}=\dfrac{1.62\times10^{-27}v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}

\dfrac{v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}=\dfrac{2.90\times10^{-28}\times0.893c}{1.62\times10^{-27}\times0.45}

\dfrac{v_{2}}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}}=0.355c

\dfrac{v_{2}}{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^{2}}{c^2}}=(0.355c)^2

\dfrac{1-\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{c^2}}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{(0.355c)}

\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}-\dfrac{1}{c^2}=\dfrac{1}{(0.355c)^2}

\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{c^2}+\dfrac{1}{0.126c^2}

\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{1}{c^2}(1+\dfrac{1}{0.126})

\dfrac{1}{v_{2}^2}=\dfrac{8.93}{c^2}

v_{2}^2=\dfrac{c^2}{8.93}

v_{2}=0.335c

Hence, The speed of the heavier fragment is 0.335c.

A sound source is located somewhere along the x-axis. Experiments show that the same wave front simultaneously reaches listeners
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the source is situated on x - axis , it must be situated in between the two listeners .

So the x coordinate of source is

(-7 + 3 )/2

= - 2 m

The equation of the wave- front will be that o a circle having centre at (-2,0)

and radius = distance between -2 and 3 , that is 5 m

equation of circle

=( x+2 )² + y² = 25

It cuts y axis when x = 0

Putting x = 0

4 + y² = 25

y² = 21

y = + √21 , or - √21

A cylindrical storage tank has a radius of 1.35 m. When filled to a height of 3.45 m, it holds 14,014 kg of a liquid industrial
Kruka [31]

Answer:

709.93 kg/m³

Explanation:

Density: This can be defined as the ratio of the mass of a body to the volume of that body. The S.I unit of density is kg/m³

From the question above,

D = m/v.............................. Equation 1

Where D = density, m = mass, v = volume.

Note: The volume of the liquid is equal to the volume of the height occupied by the liquid in the container

Since the tank is cylindrical,

v = πr²h........................ Equation 2

Where r = radius of the the tank, h = height of the liquid in the tank

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

D = m/(πr²h)............... Equation 3

Given: m = 14014 kg, r = 1.35 m, h = 3.45 m, π = 3.14

Substitute into equation 3

D = 14014/(3.14×1.35²×3.45)

D = 14014/19.74

D = 709.93 kg/m³
