A Martian leaves Mars in a spaceship that is heading to Venus. On the way, the spaceship passes earth with a speed v = 0.80c rel

ative to it. Assume that the three planets do not move relative to each other during the trip. The distance between Mars and Venus is 1.20 × 1011 m, as measured by a person on earth. What does the Martian measure for the distance between Mars and Venus?

To find the relative distance from one point to another it is necessary to apply the Relativity equations.

Under the concept of relativity the distance measured from a spatial object is given by the equation

l = l_0 \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}

Where

l_0= Relative length

v = Velocity of the spaceship

c = Speed of light

Replacing with our values we have that

l = l_0 \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}

l = 1.2*10^{11} \sqrt{1-\frac{0.8c^2}{c^2}}

l = 1.2*10^{11} \sqrt{1-0.8^2}

l = 7.2*10^{10}m

Therefore the distance between Mars and Venus measured by the Martin is 7.2*10^{10}m

The critical angle for water is 49°. If a ray of light
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Snell's Law states

Ni sin i = Nr sin r

Judging from the question the source of the ray is in the water (directed up)

or NI = 1 / sin 49      Ni = 1.325 deg     the critical angle

From inside the pond:

Nr = 1.325 * sin 45 / 1 = 94 deg  

So refraction can occur  outside the pond and you do not have total internal refection.

The magnetic field strength at the north pole of a 2.0-cmcm-diameter, 8-cmcm-long Alnico magnet is 0.10 TT. To produce the same
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

2653 turns

Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter,d=2 cm

Length of magnet,l=8 cm=8\times 10^{-2} m

1m=100 cm

Magnetic field,B=0.1 T

Current,I=2.4 A

We are given that

Magnetic field of solenoid and magnetic are same and size of both solenoid and magnetic are also same.

Length of solenoid=8\times 10^{-2} m

Magnetic field of solenoid

B=\frac{\mu_0NI}{l}

Using the formula

0.1=\frac{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 2.4\times N}{8\times 10^{-2}}

Where \mu_0=4\pi\times 10^{-7}

N=\frac{0.1\times 8\times 10^{-2}}{4\pi\times 10^{-7}\times 2.4}=2653 turns

There are many ways to lose weight, but a sustainable plan generally involves behavior modification related to diet and exercise
Anna007 [38]

The answer is adequate nutrition, regular physical activity, and practical ways to reduce calories while retaining important nutrients.

Explanation:

Despite that adequate nutrition, regular physical activity, and practical ways to reduce calories while retaining important nutrients is one of the best strategy to reducing weight, most time it is very difficult for those that want to reduce or control their weight to discipline themselves enough to follow these routine. But one an individual that want to loose weight or live a healthy lifestyle is able to follow these procedures he/she will surely loose weight.

What is a control,constant, independent variable, and a dependent variable in a science experiment?
vagabundo [1.1K]
A control is something you don't touch/change in a exprement, a constant is the same as the control, the independent is the one the you do vhange, the dependet is the one that you observe/ use your 5 sences with.
