Step-by-step explanation:

The time dilation formula is given by

F(t) = \dfrac{t}{\sqrt{1-v^2}}

where t is the time measured by the moving observer and F(t) is the time measured by the stationary earth-bound observer and <em>v</em><em> </em> is the velocity of the moving observer expressed as a fraction of the speed of light.

a) If the observer is moving at 80% of the speed of light and observes an event that lasts for 1 second, a stationary observer will see the same event occurring over a time period of

F(t) = \dfrac{1\:\text{s}}{\sqrt{1-(0.8)^2}}

\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=\dfrac{1\:\text{s}}{\sqrt{1-(0.8)^2}} =\dfrac{1\:\text{s}}{\sqrt{1-(0.64)}}

\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=1.67\:\text{s}

This means that any event observed by this moving observer will be seen by a stationary observer to occur 67% longer.

b) Given:

t = 1 second

F(t) = 2 seconds

We need to find the speed of the observer such that an event seen by this observer will occur twice as long as seen by a stationary observer. Move the term containing the radical to the left side so the equation becomes

\sqrt{1-v^2} = \dfrac{t}{F(t)}

Take the square of both sides, we get

1 - v^2 =\dfrac{t^2}{F^2(t)}

Solving for <em>v</em>, we get

v^2 = 1 - \dfrac{t^2}{F^2(t)}

or

v = \sqrt{1 - \dfrac{t^2}{F^2(t)}}

Putting in the values for t and F(t) we get

v = \sqrt{1 - \dfrac{(1\:\text{s})^2}{(2\:\text{s})^2}}

v = \sqrt{1 - \dfrac{1}{4}} = \sqrt{0.75}

\:\:\:\:=0.866

This means that the observer must moves at 86.6% of the speed of light.

Solve by using substitution.<br><br> =3−8<br><br> =−4
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

I'm going to assume that you meant y=3x-8 and y=-4

This means that you would substitute -4 into the spot of y which gives you -4=3x-8. Once solved you would receive x=4/3.

Hope I helped have a nice day :)

Answer:

4 2/4 or 4 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/4+1 3/4

If you take 3/4 and add it to 1/4 you get 1 then you at 1+1+2=4 then you add the lemon ie which is 2/4, therefore, the answer is 4 2/4 or 4 1/2(simplified).
