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

A seagull flies at a velocity of 9.00 m/s straight into the wind. (a) if it takes the bird 20.0 min to travel 6.00 km relative t
enot [183]

Here we will the speed of seagull which is v = 9 m/s

this is the speed of seagull when there is no effect of wind on it

now in part a)

if effect of wind is in opposite direction then it travels 6 km in 20 min

so the average speed is given by the ratio of total distance and total time

v_{avg} = \frac{6000}{20*60}

v_{avg} = 5m/s

now since effect of wind is in opposite direction then we can say

V_{net} = v_{bird} - v_{wind}

5 = 9 - v_{wind}

v_{wind}= 4 m/s

Part b)

now if bird travels in the same direction of wind then we will have

v_{net}= v_{bird} + v_{wind}

v_{net} = 9 + 4 = 13 m/s

now we can find the time to go back

time = \frac{distance}{speed}

time = \frac{6000}{13}

time = 7.7 minutes

Part c)

Total time of round trip when wind is present

T = t_1 + t_2

T = 20 + 7.7 = 27.7 min

now when there is no wind total time is given by

T = \frac{6000}{9} + \frac{6000}{9}

T = 22.22 min

So due to wind time will be more

mechanical equivalent of heat Do the data for the second part of the experiment support or refute the second hypothesis
Ksivusya [100]
  • The data for the first part of the experiment support the first hypothesis.
  • As the force applied to the cart increased, the acceleration of the cart increased.
  • Since the increase in the applied force caused the increase in the cart's acceleration, force and acceleration are directly proportional to each other, which is in accordance with Newton's second law.

When we state something about the results on the basis whether the observed data supports the original hypothesis, we say that we are concluding the results.

What is the relationship between force and acceleration based on Newton's 2nd law?

Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

The atomic number, or ________ number, is the described as the number of _________ in the nucleus of an chemical element.
Leto [7]
The atomic number or proton number (symbol Z) of a chemical element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom. It is identical to the charge number of the nucleus. The atomic number uniquely identifies a chemical element. In an uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons.
