Problem 1 Observer A, who is at rest in the laboratory, is studying a particle that is moving through the laboratory at a speed

of 0.624c and determines its lifetime to be 159 ns. (a) Observer A places markers in the laboratory at the locations where the particle is produced and where it decays. How far apart are those markers in the laboratory

Answer:

markers are 29.76 m far apart in the laboratory

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

speed of particle = 0.624c

lifetime = 159 ns = 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

we know that; c is speed of light which is equal to 3 × 10⁸ m/s

we know that

distance = vt

or s = ut

so we substitute

distance = 0.624c × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance = 0.624(3 × 10⁸ m/s) × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance = 1.872 × 10⁸ m/s × 1.59 × 10⁻⁷ s

distance =  29.76 m

Therefore, markers are 29.76 m far apart in the laboratory

A convex spherical mirror having a radius of curvature 18 cm (focal length = 1/2 radius of curvature for a spherical mirror) pro
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

distance between object and image =  18.9 cm

Explanation:

given data

radius of curvature = 18 cm

focal length = 1/2 radius of curvature

magnification = 40%

to find out

distance between object and image

solution

we know lens formula that is

1/f = 1/v + 1/u     ....................1

here f = 18 /2 and v and u is object and image distance

and we know m = 40% = 0.40

so 0.40 = -v / u

so here v = - 0.40 u

so from equation 1

1/f = 1/v + 1/u

2/18 = - 1/0.40u + 1/u

u = -13.5 cm   ..................2

and

v = -0.40 (- 13.5)

v = 5.4 cm     ......................3

so from equation 2 and 3

distance between object and image =  5.4 + 13.5

distance between object and image =  18.9 cm

You are an astronaut in space far away from any gravitational field, and you throw a rock as hard as you can. The rock will:
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

the rock will continue at the same speed unless it is affected by another force such as gravity and so if you threw it it will continue to move unless affected by a force

Explanation:

this is because Newton's first law states that every object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless compelled to change its state by the action of an external force.

Suppose two objects are gravitationally attracted to each other with some force F. If the mass of object 1 is multiplied by a fa
RoseWind [281]

If F = Gm₁m₂/d², and we change m₁ to 5m₁ and m₂ to 2m₂, then the new magnitude of the gravitational force is

F' = G (5m₁) (2m₂) / d²

F' = 10  Gm₁m₂ / d²

but this is really just F' = 10F. So J is the correct choice.

It takes 160 kj of work to accelerate a car from 24.0 m/s to 27.5 m/s. what is the car's mass?
ankoles [38]
Work-Energy :W = 1/2 m ( Vf^2 -Vo^2 )
Vo = 24.0 m/s Initial speed 
 Vf = 27.5 m/s  Final speed 

W = 1/2 m ( Vf^2 -Vo^2 )
160 kj = 1/ 2 m ( 27.5^2  -24.0 ^2)
160kj =  4680 x m
convert kilo joules to jeoules                     160000 j = 4689 xm
m = 160000 j/4689
m = 34.18 kg
