You are at the top of the Empire State Building on the 102nd floor, which is located 373 m above the ground, when your favorite

superhero flies over the building parallel to the ground at 50.0 % the speed of light. You have never seen your favorite superhero in real life. Out of curiosity you calculate her height to be 1.73 m. If the superhero landed next to you, how tall would she be when standing?

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

H = actual height of the superhero = ?

H₀ = height of the superhero as observed = 1.73 m

v = speed of the superhero = 0.50 c

Using the equation

H = H_{o} \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{v}{c} \right )^{2}}

Inserting the values

H = 1.73 \sqrt{1 - \left ( \frac{0.50 c}{c} \right )^{2}}

H = 1.5 m

How do we get heat on Earth? Does thermal energy travel directly from the sun?
ExtremeBDS [4]
We get heat on earth from the sun. Energy from the sun is transferred through space and through earths atmosphere to the earths surface. And since this warms the earth surface it creates heat.

Calculate the energy gained by an ice block in the following experiment.
MAXImum [283]

The heat is exchanged when two different temperature objects come in contact. The energy gained by an ice block is 2.3 Joules.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness of the object.

A 7g block of ice was added to a coffee cup full of 103.4 grams of water. The water had an initial temperature T₁ = 24.5 C and a final temperature T₂ = 19.2 C after all the ice had melted.

Heat lost by water = Heat gained by ice

Qgain = ms(T₂ -T₁ )

Substituting the value for mass of water m =103.4 g= 0.1034 kg , specific heat of water s = 4.18 kJ/kg and temperature values, we get

Qgain = 0.1034 x 4.18 x (24.5 - 19.2)

Qgain = 2.3 Joules

Thus, the energy gained by an ice block is 2.3 Joules.

The lower the value of the coefficient of friction,the_the resistance to sliding​
malfutka [58]

Answer:

lower

Explanation:

The lower the value of the coefficient of friction, the lower the resistance to sliding.

The coefficient of friction is the ratio of the frictional force and the normal force pressing two surfaces in contact together.

               U  = \frac{F}{N}  

U is the coefficient of friction

F is the frictional force

N is the normal force

 We see that coefficient of friction is directly proportional to frictional force.
