An armada of spaceships that is 1.60 ly long (in its rest frame) moves with speed 0.800c relative to the ground station in frame

S. A messenger travels from the rear of the armada to the front with a speed of 0.910c relative to S. How long does the trip take as measured (a) in the messenger's rest frame, (b) in the armada's rest frame, and (c) by an observer in frame S?

Answer:

(a). The trip take a time is 3.61 year.

(b). The trip take a time is 3.96 year.

(c). The trip take a time is 8.73 year.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 1.60 ly

Speed of spaceships= 0.800c

Speed of messenger = 0.910 c

(a). We need to calculate the velocity of armada

Using formula of velocity

v'=\dfrac{v-v_{m}}{1-\dfrac{vv_{m}}{c^2}}

Put the value into the formula

v'=\dfrac{0.800c-0.910c}{1-\dfrac{0.800\times0.910 c^2}{c^2}}

v'=\dfrac{-0.11c}{1-0.800\times0.910}

v'=-0.404c

We need to calculate the length

Using formula of length

l=l'\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v'^2}{c^2}

Put the value into the formula

l=1.60\sqrt{1-(-0.404)^2}

l=1.46\ ly

We need to calculate the length of the trip

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{l}{|v'|}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{1.46}{0.404}

t=3.61\ year

(b). If the armada's rest frame

We need to calculate the length

Using formula of length

l=l'\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v'^2}{c^2}

Put the value into the formula

l=1.60\sqrt{1-(0)^2}

l=1.60\ ly

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{l}{|v'|}

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{1.60}{0.404}

t=3.96\ year

(c). If an observer in frame S

We need to calculate the length

Using formula of length

l=l'\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v'^2}{c^2}

Put the value into the formula

l=1.60\sqrt{1-(0.800)^2}

l=0.96\ ly

We need to calculate the time

t=\dfrac{0.96}{0.910-0.800}

t=8.73\ year

Hence, (a). The trip take a time is 3.61 year.

(b). The trip take a time is 3.96 year.

(c). The trip take a time is 8.73 year.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO THE CORRECT ANSWER
LenKa [72]

Answer:

See the answers below.

Explanation:

We can solve both problems using Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F =m*a

where:

F = force [N] (units of newtons)

m = mass = 1000 [kg]

a = acceleration = 3 [m/s²]

F = 1000*3\\F=3000[N]

And the weight of any body can be calculated by means of the mass product by gravitational acceleration.

W=m*g\\W=1000*9.81\\W=9810 [N]

The same amount of substance was added to four beakers of water. The treatments were placed in the chart.
vfiekz [6]

Answer: Solution W and Y solution have more solubility than X and Z

Solutions are homogeneous mixtures of two or more components. By uniform mix we mean that its structure and properties are the same in the whole mix. Generally, the component which is present in the largest quantity is known as solvent. Solvent determines the physical condition in which the solution exists. In addition to the solvent, one or more component present in the solution is called solutes. In this unit we will only consider binary solutions (i.e., with two components)

The structure of the solution can be described by expressing its concentration. The latter can either be expressed qualitatively or quantitatively. For example, in qualitatively we can say that the solution is diluted (i.e., relatively small amounts of solubility) or it is concentrated (i.e., relatively rarely sighs). But in real life such details may be very confusing and thus require a quantitative description of the solution. There are several ways that we can quantitatively describe the concentration of solutions. (i) Mass Percentage (W / W): The mass percentage of a component of the solution is defined as: mass of the component = mass of the component in the solution = 100 Total mass of the solution .For example, if by mass A solution is described by 10% glucose in water, it means that 10 grams of glucose dissolved in 90 grams of water, resulting in 100 grams of solution. The concentration described by a large percentage of the population is usually used in industrial chemical applications. For example, the commercial bleaching solution contains 3.62 mass percentages of sodium hypochlorite in water. (ii) Volume Percentage (V / V): Volume Percentage is defined as: Total Volume of Component Volume 100 (component) Volume% of Component

The energy photon affects which property of light
Triss [41]

Answer:

photoelectric effect

Explanation:

When the energy from photons is absorbed by matter, the matter can emit electrons. This process is called the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect is a property of light that is not explained by the theory that light is a wave.
