Answer:

0.976 c

Explanation:

v_{1e} = velocity of object 1 relative to earth = 0.80 c

v_{21} = velocity of object 2 relative to object 1 = 0.80 c

v_{2e} = velocity of object 2 relative to earth

Velocity of object 2 relative to earth is given as

v_{2e}= \frac{v_{1e} + v_{21}}{1 + \frac{v_{1e}v_{21}}{c^{2}}}

v_{2e}= \frac{0.80 c + 0.80 c}{1 + \frac{(0.80c)(0.80c)}{c^{2}}}

v_{2e} = 0.976 c

Marissaâs car accelerates uniformly at a rate of +2.60 m/s². How long does it take for Marissaâs car to accelerate from a speed
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The time taken by the car to accelerate from a speed of 24.6 m/s to a speed of 26.8 m/s is 0.84 seconds.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of the car, a=+2.6\ m/s^2

Initial speed of the car, u = 24.6 m/s

Final speed of the car, v = 26.8 m/s

We need to find the time taken by the car to accelerate from a speed of 24.6 m/s to a speed of 26.8 m/s. The acceleration of an object is given by :

t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}

t=\dfrac{(26.8-24.6)\ m/s}{2.6\ s}

t = 0.84 seconds

So, the time taken by the car to accelerate from a speed of 24.6 m/s to a speed of 26.8 m/s is 0.84 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.
