A large number of very industrious people make a very long pole. It is 10.0 light years long! ( As they measure it. ) Soon a spa

ceship flies along the length of the pole at 90% the speed of light. How much time passes on the spaceship from the moment the ship passes the first end of the pole to the moment the ship passes the second end of the pole

Answer:

L = L0 ( 1 - v^2/c^2))1/2     where L0 is the proper length

L = 10 L-y (1 - .9^2)^1/2 = 4.36 L-y   length of pole measured by ship

t = 4.36 L-y / .9 c = 4.84 y  since the ship travels at .9 c

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Microwave: Radiation

Water: Conduction, convection & radiation.

Explanation:

  • When we heat a food using microwave then the water content of the food is only heated by the microwave.
  • Microwaves make the molecules of water vibrate frequently with a frequency closer to the frequency of microwaves and this increases the kinetic energy of the molecules which produces heat in the water molecules this heat then propagates to the whole food by conduction and convection, but the heat enters the food only via radiation.

Now when the food item is kept into warm water then the molecules closer to the food heat the food by conduction through direct energy transfer by lattice vibrations and when they become cooler than the mass of water all around then due to density difference they settle down and their place is occupied by warmer molecules around in the fluid leading to convection.

Radiation of energy from a mass occurs continuously irrespective of the medium present there. So the heat of water also enters the food by radiation of energy from the water molecules.

Two train whistles have identical frequencies of 1.64 102 Hz. When one train is at rest in the station and the other is moving n
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Vs = 6.73 m/s or Vs = 16.3 m/s

Explanation:

frequency of the trains whistle (f) = 1.64 x 10^{2} Hz = 164 Hz

frequency of beats heard = 4 beats/s = 4 Hz

velocity of the stationary train (Vr) = 0

velocity of sound in air (V) = 343 m/s

velocity of the moving train (Vs) = ?

we can get the velocity of the moving train from the formula below

Fn = f x \frac{V + Vr}{V - Vs} ...equation 1

where Fn = net frequency

  • case one - assuming the train is approaching the station Fn =  164 + 4 = 168 Hz

substituting the known values into equation 1

168 =  164 x \frac{343 + 0}{343 - Vs}

1.02 = \frac{343 + 0}{343 - Vs}

Vs = 343 - \frac{343 + 0}{1.02}

Vs = 6.73 m/s

  • case two - assuming the train is leaving the station Fn =  164 - 4 = 160 Hz

substituting the known values into equation 1

168 =  160 x \frac{343 + 0}{343 - Vs}

1.05 = \frac{343 + 0}{343 - Vs}

Vs = 343 - \frac{343 + 0}{1.05}

Vs = 16.3 m/s
