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

ANswer the question and give example: Can friction ever perform positive work?
Harman [31]
Yes. Think of block sitting on top of a bigger block. If the bottom block moves, it will drag the top block with it. Since the force of friction on the small block and its displacement are in the same direction, the "work" is positive. The static friction is a passive force, It is not a source of energy; it transmits the force placed on the bottom block. (And the "work" done by the friction on the bottom block is exactly the negative of the work done on the top block.)

Describe the difference between global knowledge and personal ideas.
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Global knowledge is information that is widely accepted and been proven as the truth. It is information that may not necessarily have a source because it is common knowledge and not easily attributed to a certain source. Personal ideas are original to the author and may not be widely accepted. It is important to give credit to others by citing their work to acknowledge that this is not your own findings but rather someone else's. It is plagiarism to use someone else's work as your own without giving credit to their work. -W0lf93

The water stream strikes the inclined surface of the cart. Determine the power produced by the stream if, due to rolling frictio
levacccp [35]

Answer

given,

constant speed of cart on right side = 2 m/s

diameter of nozzle = 50 mm = 0.05 m

discharge flow through nozzle = 0.04 m³

One-fourth of the discharge flows down the incline

three-fourths flows up the incline

Power = ?

Normal force i.e. Fn acting on the cart

F_n = \rho A (v - u)^2 sin \theta

v is the velocity of jet

Q = A V

v = \dfrac{0.04}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2}

v= \dfrac{0.04}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.05^2}

v = 20.37 m/s

u be the speed of cart assuming it to be u = 2 m/s

angle angle of inclination be 60°

now,

F_n = 1000 \times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.05^2\times (20.37 - 2)^2 sin 60^0

F n = 2295 N

now force along x direction

F_x = F_n sin 60^0

F_x = 2295 \times sin 60^0

F_x = 1987.52\ N

Power of the cart

P = F x v

P = 1987.52 x 20.37

P = 40485 watt

P = 40.5 kW

A projectile is fired at 0=433.0 m/s
White raven [17]

Answer:

10,600 m

Explanation:

Use range equation:

R = v₀² sin(2θ) / g

R = (433.0 m/s)² sin(2 × 64.8°) / (9.8 m/s²)

R = 14,700 m

The range is shortened by 28.1%.

0.719R = 10,600 m
