The proper mean lifetime of a muon is 2.2 × 10–6 s. A beam of muons is moving with speed 0.6c relative to an inertial observer.

Approximately how far will a muon in the beam travel, on average, before it decays?

We wrap a light, nonstretching cable around a 10.0 kg kg solid cylinder with diameter of 38.0 cm cm . The cylinder rotates with
amm1812

Answer: 14.16

Explanation:

Given

d = 38cm

r = d/2 = 38/2 = 19cm = 0.19m

K.E = 510J

m = 10kg

I = 1/2mr²

I = 1/2*10*0.19²

I = 0.18kgm²

When it has 510J of Kinetic Energy then,

510J = 1/2Iω²

ω² = 1020/I

ω² = 1020/0.18

ω² = 5666.67

ω = √5666.67 = 75.28 rad/s

Velocity is the block, v = ωr

V = 75.28 * 0.19

V = 14.30m/s

The "effective mass" M of the system is

M = (14.0 + ½*10.0) kg = 19.0 kg

The motive force would be

F = ma

F = 14 * 9.8

F = 137.2N

so that the acceleration would be

a = F/m

a = 137.2/19

a = 7.22m/s²

Finally, using equation of motion.

V² = u² + 2as

14.3² = 0 + 2*7.22*s

204.49 = 14.44s

s = 204.49/14.44

s = 14.16m

Why is it warmer near the equator and cooler near the poles?
Phantasy [73]
It is because the equator is closer to the sun and because the sun's rays hit the surface of the Earth at a higher angle at the equator. The poles are colder because they don't get direct sunlight. The sun is always low on the horizon.

a street light is mounted at the top of a 15 foot pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole wit a speed of 7 ft/s along a s
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

16.3 ft/s

Explanation:

Let d=distance

and

x = length of shadow.

Therfore,

x=(d + x)

 = 6/15

So,

    15x = 6x + 6d

     9x = 6d.

x = (2/3)d.

As we know that:

dx=dt

   = (2/3) (d/dt) 

Also,

Given:

d(d)=dt

     = 7 ft/s

Thus,

d(d + x)=dt

           = (7/3)d (d/dt)

Substitute, d= 7  

d(d + x) = 49/3 ft/s.

Hence,

d(d + x) = 16.3 ft/s.

What s physics?
Alex777 [14]

The answer is (B. The study of Matter and Energy) but technically you could consider physics all of these as engineering is based on physics and that would be the study of inventions, chemistry and biology were both discovered because of physics, and physics invokes more math than any other subject as it applies math to the entire Universe.
