Physics
1 answer:
Lubov Fominskaja [6]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Mass and thus force depends on the reference frame chosen

Explanation:

This can be explained as Newton's law of gravity provides action which are instantaneous at a distance and involves the evaluation of all the quantities at present time or at the instant they occur.

If the body undergoes a change in its mass distribution there will be an immediate change in its gravitational force without any lag.

Now, if we talk about special relativity, it would be absurd to say that an information can travel faster than light. The effect is in synchronization with the cause in one reference frame where the effect occurs after the cause for some observer in some other reference frame.

In order to observe Newton's law of gravity all the observer's in different reference frames must observe the same phenomena which could only be possible if time were absolute and in special relativity, time is not absolute.

Therefore, Newton's law of gravity was inconsistent with the Einstein's Special Relativity.

Tory has a mass of 40kg. She sleds down a hill that has a slope of 25 degrees. what is the component of her weight that is along
Fudgin [204]

1.7 x 10^2 N

or 166 N

First you find the vertical component of the weight, which is 9.8*40, (g*m), which is 392 N. You then find the angle between that and the slope, which is 90-25, which is 65. You then multiply the vertical weight by cos(65), to find the component of that that is parallel to the slope. You get 165.666 N

Q.Solve the following circuit find total resistance RT. Also find value of voltage across resister RC.
Drupady [299]

Answer:

14.57 ohms

Explanation:

Here in the figure ,Rb & R₄are in series  & also  Rc & R₅ are in series. As they are in series , ( Rb + R₄ ) & (Rc & R₅) are in parallel . So the equivalent resistance in that branch = ( 2 + 18 ) ║ ( 3 + 12 )

                                          = 20 ║ 15

                                          = (20×15) / (20 + 15)

                                          = 8.57 ohms

Also Ra ( 6 ohm ) is in series with that branch ,. So the equivalent resistance of the whole circuit = 8.57 + 6 = 14.57 ohms.

Mark all the mesons a) Proton b) Electron c)Anti-top d) Gluon e) Tau Neutrino
Sloan [31]

Answer:

None

Explanation:

Subatomic particles are the particles which are very smaller than the atoms. Elementary particles are the examples of subatomic particles.

Elementary particles are the particles without any sub-structure which means they are not composed of other particles.

The elementary particles are classified into three categories which are discussed below:

(1) Quarks: up, down, top, bottom, strange, and charm.

(2) Leptons: muon, muon neutrino, electrons, electron neutrino,  tau, tau neutrino.

(3) Bosons:  Z bosons, W bosons, Higgs, Gluon, photons.

Mesons are the particles which compose one quark and one anti quarks.

Therefore, in the given list there is no meson.
