Suppose that you have been chosen for a space mission to a distant planet. Due to the length of time you'll be away from Earth y

ou must carry out physical activity every day. On earth your, strength and conditioning trainer has determined you must do 90 minutes of exercise every day. If the vehicle is travelling at 0.80 c how much time, according to a timer on the space vehicle should you be active to meet your physical activity requirement?

Answer:

I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

Explanation:

Since time dilates in moving objects, we use the formula t = t₀/√(1 - β²) where t = time in space vehicle, t₀ = time on earth = 9 hours and β = v/c where v = speed of space vehicle = 0.8c.

So, t = t₀/√(1 - β²)

t = 9/√(1 - (v/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8c/c)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.8)²)

= 9/√(1 - (0.64)

= 9/√0.36

= 9/0.6

= 15 hr

So, according to a timer on the space vehicle, I should be active for 15 hours to meet the physical activity requirement.

Describe the acceleration of your bicycle as you ride it from your home to the store
erik [133]
<span>While you're going to the store, your acceleration changes. Some times it increases your overall speed sometimes it reduces it. Constant acceleration does not occur because it would mean that you would constantly accelerate and eventually go past the store. Even reduction of speed is a type of acceleration in physics. When you reach it, we can then calculate how much your velocity was on average and analyze how changing acceleration would've affected it.</span>

An astronaut on the moon drops a feather from rest (v = 0). The acceleration due to gravity is 1.67 m/s​ 2​ . If the feather beg
olga_2 [115]

Given :

Initial velocity , u = 0 m/s .

Acceleration due to gravity on moon , g_m=1.67\ m/s^2 .

Height , h = 2 m .

To Find :

Final position after falling for 1.5 seconds .

Solution :

We know , by equation of motion :

s=ut+\dfrac{at^2}{2}

Here , a = g_m .

So , equation will transform by :

s=ut+\dfrac{g_mt^2}{2}\\\\s=0+\dfrac{1.67\times 1.5^2}{2}\ m\\\\s=1.88\ m

Therefore , the height form moon's surface is 1.88 m .

Hence , this is the required solution .
