Answer:

v = 0.92 c

Explanation:

Here, we will use the time dilation formula from Einstein's theory of relativity to find the speed of traveling of the friend:

t =\frac{t_o}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}} \\\\\\\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}=\frac{t_o}{t}\\\\

where,

v = speed of traveling = ?

c = speed of light

t = time of return = 10 years

t₀ = time passed on earth = 4 years

Therefore,

\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}} = \frac{4\ years}{10\ years}\\\\  1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}=(\frac{2}{5})^2\\\\\frac{v^2}{c^2} = 1-\frac{4}{25}\\\\\frac{v^2}{c^2} = \frac{21}{25}\\\\v^2 = 0.84c^2\\\\

<u>v = 0.92 c</u>

A 30.0 kg box hangs from a rope. What is the tension (in N) in the rope if the box has an initial velocity of 2.0 m/s and is slo
hjlf

Answer:

360 N

Explanation:

m = 30kg    u = 2 m/s     a = -2m/s/s

Since the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s and acceleration of -2 m/s/s

the object will come to rest in 1 second but the force applied in that one second can be calculated by:

F = ma

F = 30 * -2

F = -60 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the force applied on the box due to gravity

letting g = -10m/s/s

F = ma

F = 30 * -10

F = -300 N (the negative sign tells us that the force is acting downwards)

Now, calculating the total downward force:

-300 + (-60) = -360 N

<em></em>

<em>Hence, a downward force of 360 N is being applied on the box and since the box did not disconnect from the rope, the rope applied the same amount of force in the opposite direction</em>

Therefore tension on the force = <u>360 N</u>

What charge accumulates on the plates of a 2.0-μF air-filled capacitor when it is charged until the potential difference across
enot [183]

Answer:

0.0002 C.

Explanation:

Charge: This can be defined as the ratio of current to time flowing in a circuit. The S.I unit of charge is Coulombs (C)

Mathematically, charge can be expressed as

Q = CV ................................. Equation 1

Where Q = amount of charge, C = capacitance of the capacitor, V = potential difference across the plates.

Given: C = 2.0-μF = 2×10⁻⁶ F, V = 100 V.

Substitute into equation 1

Q = 2×10⁻⁶× 100

Q = 2×10⁻⁴ C

Q = 0.0002 C.

The amount of charge accumulated = 0.0002 C

50 POINTS !!!
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

a) I = 464 kg m²,  b)  K = 631 .6 J, c)  v = 8.25 m / s

Explanation:

a) the moment of inertia of point particles is

          I = ∑ m_i r_i²

in this case

          I = 8 5² + 3 (-2) ² + 7 (-6) ²

          I = 464 kg m²

b) The kinetic energy is

          K = ½ I w²

          K = ½ 464 1.65²

          K = 631 .6 J

c) linear and angular velocity are related

          v = w r

          v = 1.65 5

          v = 8.25 m / s

The highest point of a wave is called the
Kipish [7]
The highest point of a wave is called the crest. Among the choices, the correct answer is C. The height of the wave can be determined using the crest and the trough. The trough is the lowest point of a wave. The wavelength is the distance between two crests of a wave.
