Explanation:
It is given that, Onur drops a basketball from a height of 10 m on Mars, where the acceleration due to gravity has a magnitude of 3.7 m/s².
The second equation of kinematics gives the relationship between the height reached and time taken by it.
Here, the ball is droped under the action of gravity. The value of acceleration due to gravity on Mars is positive.
We want to know how many seconds the basketball is in the air before it hits the ground. So, the formula is :
t is time taken by the ball to hit the ground
is initial speed of the ball
So, the correct option is (A).
Explanation:
Speed of Bob, v = 0.967 c
At the exact instant he passes Alice, she fires a very short laser pulse in the same direction Bob is moving.
(a) We need to find the distance measured by Alice between Bob and the laser pulse. It is given by :
(b) Distance measured by Bob between himself and the laser pulse is given by :
Hence, this is the required solution.
