There is no net vertical force.

The 20N upward is exactly balanced by the 20N downward.

There IS a net horizontal force.

(22N to the right) + (14N to the left) = 8 N to the right.

The net force acting on this object is 8 newtons to the right.

I hope this helped you :D

Upward and downward forces cancel out. Net force is 8 newtons to the right

A rocket travels in the x-direction at speed 0.70c with respect to the earth. An experimenter on the rocket observes a collision

marishachu [46]

Answer:

A) The space time coordinate x of the collision in Earth's reference frame is

$x \approx 103,46x10^{9}m$ .

B) The space time coordinate t of the collision in Earth's reference frame is

$t=377,29s$

Explanation:

We are told a rocket travels in the x-direction at speed v=0,70 c (c=299792458 m/s is the exact value of the speed of light) with respect to the Earth. A collision between two comets is observed from the rocket and it is determined that the space time coordinates of the collision are (x',t') = (3.4 x 10¹⁰ m, 190 s).

An event indicates something that occurs at a given location in space and time, in this case the event is the collision between the two comets. We know the space time coordinates of the collision seen from the reference frame of the rocket and we want to find out the space time coordinates in Earth's reference frame.

Lorentz transformation

The Lorentz transformation relates things between two reference frames when one of them is moving with constant velocity with respect to the other. In this case the two reference frames are the Earth and the rocket that is moving with speed v=0,70 c in the x axis.

The Lorentz transformation is

$x'=\frac{x-vt}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

$y'=y$

$z'=z$

$t'=\frac{t-\frac{v}{c^{2}}x}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

prime coordinates are the ones from the rocket reference frame and unprimed variables are from the Earth's reference frame. Since we want position x and time t in the Earth's frame we need the inverse Lorentz transformation. This can be obtained by replacing v by -v and swapping primed an unprimed variables in the first set of equations

$x=\frac{x'+vt'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

$y=y'$

$z=z'$

$t=\frac{t'+\frac{v}{c^{2}}x'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

First we calculate the expression in the denominator

$\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}=\frac{(0,70)^{2}c^{2}}{c^{2}} =(0,70)^{2}$

$\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}} =0,714$

then we calculate t

$t=\frac{t'+\frac{v}{c^{2}}x'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

$t=\frac{190s+\frac{0,70c}{c^{2}}.3,4x10^{10}m}{0,714}$

$t=\frac{190s+\frac{0,70c .3,4x10^{10}m}{299792458\frac{m}{s}}}{0,714}$

$t=\frac{190s+79,388s}{0,714}$

finally we get that

$t=377,29s$

then we calculate x

$x=\frac{x'+vt'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}$

$x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+0,70c.190s}{0,714}}$

$x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+0,70.299792458\frac{m}{s}.190s}{0,714}}$

$x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+39872396914m}{0,714}}$

$x=\frac{73872396914m}{0,714}}$

$x=103462740775,91m$

finally we get that

$x \approx 103,46x10^{9} m$

The speed of sound at temperature of________in the air is 360m/s.

Aleks04 [339]

Vo= 331+0.6T

360=331+0.6T

360-331=0.6T

29=0.6T

0.6T/29

T=6/290 so change it to simplest form and us formulas good luck

Se golpea una pelota de golf de manera que su velocidad inicial forma un ángulo de 45° con la horizontal. La pelota alcanza el s

nordsb [41]

Answer:

42m/s

6.06s

Explanation:

To find the initial velocity and time in which the ball is fling over the ground you use the following formulas:

$x_{max}=\frac{v_o^2sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\\x_{max}=vt_{max}$

θ: angle = 45°

vo: initial velocity

g: gravitational constant = 9.8m/s^2

x_max: max distance = 180 m

t_max: max time

by replacing the values of the parameters and do vo the subject of the first formula you obtain:

$v_o=\sqrt{\frac{gx_{max}}{sin(2\theta)}}\\\\v_o=\sqrt{\frac{(9.8m/s^2)(180m)}{sin(2(45\°))}}=42\frac{m}{s}$

with this value of vo you calculate the max time:

$t_{max}=\frac{x_{max}}{v}=\frac{x_{max}}{v_ocos(45\°)}\\\\t_{max}=\frac{180m}{(42m/s)cos(45\°)}=6.06s$

hence, the initial velocity of the ball is 42m/s and the time in which the ball is in the air is 6.06s

TRANSLATION:

Para encontrar la velocidad inicial y el tiempo en el que la pelota está volando sobre el suelo, use las siguientes fórmulas:

θ: ángulo = 45 °

vo: velocidad inicial

g: constante gravitacional = 9.8m / s ^ 2

x_max: distancia máxima = 180 m

t_max: tiempo máximo

reemplazando los valores de los parámetros y haciendo el tema de la primera fórmula que obtiene:

con este valor de vo usted calcula el tiempo máximo:

por lo tanto, la velocidad inicial de la pelota es de 42 m / sy el tiempo en que la pelota está en el aire es de 6.06 s
