Consider the speed of light in another universe to be only 100 m/s. Two cars are traveling along a highway in opposite direction

s. Person 1 is travelling with speed of 39 m/s, and person 2 is travelling in opposite direction with speed of 31 m/s. How fast does person 1 measure person 2 to be traveling? How fast does person 2 measure person 1 to be traveling?

Answer:

-62.45m/s and +62.45m/s

Explanation:

The formula for relativistic speed

This is the speed of A with respect to B

V_{AB}=\frac{V_{A}-V_{B}}{1-\frac{V_{A}V_{B}}{C^2} }

where

V_{A} will be the velocity of person 1: 39m/s

V_{B} will be the velocity of person 2: -31m/s (negative because is travelling in opposite direction)

and C the velocity of light: 100m/s

The velocity of person 1 measured by person 2 is:

V_{AB}=\frac{39m/s-(-31m/s)}{1-\frac{(39m/s)(-31m/s)}{(100m/s)^2}}=62.45m/s

The velocity of person 2 measured by person 1 is:

V_{BA}=\frac{V_{B}-V_{A}}{1-\frac{V_{B}V_{A}}{C^2} }

V_{BA}=\frac{-31m/s-39m/s}{1-\frac{(-31m/s)(39m/s)}{(100)^2} }=-62.45m/s

What is the value of work done on an object when a 70 newton force moves it 9.0 meters in the same direction as the force
olchik [2.2K]
<span>Work, very simply, equals force times distance (when the force and distance are in the same direction. otherwise you get a little bit of trig added on) \[W=F*\Delta x\] W=70N * 9.0 m = 630 Nm = 630 J</span>

Eukaryotic that can reproduce sexually contain two types of cells
Darina [25.2K]
<span>Only eukaryotes form multicellular organisms consisting of many kinds of tissue made up of different cell types. Eukaryotes can reproduce both asexually through mitosis and sexually through meiosis and gamete fusion. In mitosis, one cell divides to produce two genetically identical cells.</span>

If the charge on the negative plate of the capacitor is 121 nano-Coulomb, how many excess electrons are on that plate? Write you
Julli [10]

Answer:

n = 756.25 giga electrons

Explanation:

It is given that,

If the charge on the negative plate of the capacitor, Q=121\ nC=121\times 10^{-9}\ C

Let n is the number of excess electrons are on that plate. Using the quantization of charges, the total charge on the negative plate is given by :

Q=ne

e is the charge on electron

n=\dfrac{Q}{e}

n=\dfrac{121\times 10^{-9}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n=7.5625\times 10^{11}

or

n = 756.25 giga electrons

So, there are 756.25 giga electrons are on the plate. Hence, this is the required solution.
