An airplane is traveling at a speed of 200 m/s relative to the Earth. A person walks toward the front of the plane at a speed of

1 m/s. How fast is that person traveling in reference to the other people on the plane?

Answer:

1 m/s

Explanation:

This is because, everybody in the plane including the person walking is moving at the speed of the plane which is 200 m/s. Now, when the person starts to walk with a speed of 1 m/s, his relative velocity to the other passengers is 1 m/s since he is already moving at the speed of the plane before starting to walk.

His velocity relative to the ground V' = velocity of plane relative to ground, V + velocity of person relative to plane, v

V = 200 m/s and v = 1 m/s

So, V' = 200 m/s + 1 m/s = 201 m/s

Since the velocity of the other passengers is the velocity of the plane, V = 200 m/s. The velocity of the person traveling in reference to the other people on the plane is V" = V' - V = 201 m/s - 200 m/s = 1 m/s

How does emission spectra occur?
Lerok [7]

The frequencies of light that an atom can emit are dependent on states the electrons can be in. When excited, an electron moves to a higher energy level or orbital. When the electron falls back to its ground level the light is emitted.

hope this helped:)

A demented scientist creates a new temperature scale, the "Z scale." He decides to call the boiling point of nitrogen 0°Z and th
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

A) Z = 0.577 C +112.931

Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z

B) C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C

C) K = C +273.15

K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K

Explanation:

For this case we want to create a function like this:

Z = a C + b

Where Z represent the degrees for the Z scale C the Celsius grades and  tha valus a and b parameters for the model.

The boiling point of nitrogen is -195,8 °C

The melting point of iron is 1538 °C

We know the following equivalences:

-195.8 °C = 0 °Z

1538 °C = 1000 °Z

Let's say that one point its (1538C, 1000 Z) and other one is (-195.8 C, 0Z)

So then we can calculate the slope for the linear model like this:

a = \frac{z_2 -z_1}{c_2 -c_1}= \frac{1000 Z- 0Z}{1538C -(-195.8 C)}=\frac{1000 Z}{1733.8 C}=0.577 \frac{Z}{C}

And now for the slope we can use one point let's use for example (-195.8C, 0Z), and we have this:

0 = 0.577 (-195.8) + b

And if we solve for b we got:

b = 0.577*195.8 =112.931 Z

So then our lineal model would be:

Z = 0.577 C +112.931

Part A

The boiling point of water is 100C so we just need to replace in the model and see what we got:

Z = 0.577*(100) +112.931=170.631 Z

Part B

For this case we have Z =100 and we want to solve for C, so we can do this:

Z-112.931 = 0.577 C

C=\frac{Z-112.931}{0.577}= \frac{100-112.931}{0.577}=-22.41 C

Part C

For this case we know that K = C +273.15

And we can use the result from part B to solve for K like this:

K = -22.41 +273.15 =250.739 K
