Can anyone help me to explain theory of relativity??? ​

Physics
1 answer:
OLga [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The theory of relativity usually encompasses two interrelated theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity, proposed and published in 1905 and 1915, respectively. Special relativity applies to all physical phenomena in the absence of gravity. General relativity explains the law of gravitation and its relation to other forces of nature.It applies to the cosmological and astrophysical realm, including astronomy.

The theory transformed theoretical physics and astronomy during the 20th century, superseding a 200-year-old theory of mechanics created primarily by Isaac Newton. It introduced concepts including spacetime as a unified entity of space and time, relativity of simultaneity, kinematic and gravitational time dilation, and length contraction. In the field of physics, relativity improved the science of elementary particles and their fundamental interactions, along with ushering in the nuclear age. With relativity, cosmology and astrophysics predicted extraordinary astronomical phenomena such as neutron stars, black holes, and gravitational waves

In an oscillating L C circuit, the maximum charge on the capacitor is 1.5 × 10 − 6 C and the maximum current through the inducto
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

T= 1.71×10^{-3} sec= 1.71 mili sec

t_{fc}= 4.281×10^{-4} sec or 0.4281 mili sec

Explanation:

First of all we write equation for current oscillation in LC circuits. Note, the maximum current (I_0)=  5.5 mA is the amplitude of this function. Then, we continue to solve for the angular frequency(ω). Afterwards, we calculate the time period T. qo = maximum charge on capacitor. = 1.5× 10 ^− 6 C

a) I(t) = -ωqosin(ωt+φ)

⇒Io= ωqo

⇒ω= Io/qo

also we know that T= 2π/ω

⇒T= 2\pi\frac{q_0}{I_0}

now putting the values we get

= 2\pi\frac{1.5\times10^{-6}}{5.5\times10^{-3}}

= 1.71×10^{-3} sec

b) note that the time t_{fc} it takes the capacitor to from uncharge to fully charged is one fourth of the period . That is

t_{fc}= \frac{T}{4}

t_{fc}= \frac{ 1.71\times10^{-3} }{4}

t_{fc}= 4.281×10^{-4} sec or 0.4281 mili sec

g Incandescent bulbs generate visible light by heating up a thin metal filament to a very high temperature so that the thermal r
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

2577 K

Explanation:

Power radiated , P = σεAT⁴ where σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.6704 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴, ε = emissivity of bulb filament = 0.8, A = surface area of bulb = 30 mm² = 30 × 10⁻⁶ m² and T = operating temperature of filament.

So, T = ⁴√(P/σεA)

Since P = 60 W, we substitute the vales of the variables into T. So,

T = ⁴√(P/σεA)

= ⁴√(60 W/(5.6704 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²K⁴ × 0.8 × 30 × 10⁻⁶ m²)

= ⁴√(60 W/(136.0896 × 10⁻¹⁴ W/K⁴)

= ⁴√(60 W/(13608.96 × 10⁻¹⁶ W/K⁴)

= ⁴√(0.00441 × 10¹⁶K⁴)

= 0.2577 × 10⁴ K

= 2577 K

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,700 years. How long will it take for 6.25% of the Carbon-14 to be remaining?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

22,800 years

Explanation:

Half life equation:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the final amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is time,

and T is the half life.

0.0625 = (½)^(t / 5700)

log 0.0625 = (t / 5700) log 0.5

4 = t / 5700

t = 22,800

It takes 22,800 years.

Does uranium use steam?
Neko [114]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Reactors use uranium for nuclear fuel. The uranium is processed into small ceramic pellets and stacked together onto sealed metal tubes called fuel rods. The heat created by fission turns the water into steam.
