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

A ball is thrown upward from an initial height of 1.5m the ball reaches a height of 5m then falls to the ground . What Is the di
jeka94

Answer:

The distance traveled by the ball is 8.5 m

Explanation:

Initial height of the ball, h₁ = 1.5 m above the ground

final height of the ball, h₂ = 5m

Upward distance = distance traveled by the ball from a height of 1.5m to 5m = 5m - 1.5m = 3.5 m

Downward distance = distance traveled by the ball from 5m height to the ground =5m - 0 = 5m

Total distance traveled = upward distance + downward distance

Total distance traveled = 3.5 m + 5m = 8.5 m

Therefore, the distance traveled by the ball is 8.5 m

A 1060-kg car moving west at 16 m/s collides with and locks onto a 1830-kg stationary car. determine the velocity of the cars ju
iren [92.7K]
M1U1 + M2V2 = (M1+M2)V, where M1 is the mass of the moving car, M2 is the mass of the stationary car, U1 is the initial velocity, and V is the common velocity after collision.
therefore; 
(1060× 16) + (1830 ×0) = (1060 +1830) V
 16960 = 2890 V
      V = 5.869 m/s
The velocity of the cars after collision will be 5.689 m/s

Molodets [167]

Answer:

4x

Explanation:

Use v^{2} = u^{2} +2as to do the question.

For first instance,

0 = v^{2} +2ax -------------------( 1 )

for second instance,

0 = (2v)^{2} +2as-----------------( 2 )

So by (1) and (2),

s = 4x
