Answer:

(A). The the time interval between signals according to an observer on A is 1.09 h.

(B). The time interval between signals according to an observer on B is 1.09 h.

(C). The speed is 0.866c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time interval = 1.00 h

Speed = 0.400 c

(A). We need to calculate the the time interval between signals according to an observer on A

Using formula of time

\Delta t=\dfrac{\Delta t_{0}}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2}}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta t=\dfrac{1.00}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{0.400c}{c})^2}}

\Delta t=\dfrac{1.00}{\sqrt{1-(0.400)^2}}

\Delta t=1.09\ h

(B). We need to calculate the time interval between signals according to an observer on B

Using formula of time

\Delta t=\dfrac{\Delta t_{0}}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2}}

Put the value into the formula

\Delta t=\dfrac{1.00}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{0.400c}{c})^2}}

\Delta t=\dfrac{1.00}{\sqrt{1-(0.400)^2}}

\Delta t=1.09\ h

(C). Here, time interval of 2.00 h between signals.

We need to calculate the speed

Using formula of speed

\Delta t=\dfrac{\Delta t_{0}}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2}}

Put the value into the formula

2.00=\dfrac{1.00}{\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2}}

\sqrt{1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2}=\dfrac{1.00}{2.00}

1-(\dfrac{v}{c})^2=(\dfrac{1.00}{2.00})^2

(\dfrac{v}{c})^2=\dfrac{3}{4}

v=\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}c

v=0.866c

Hence, (A). The the time interval between signals according to an observer on A is 1.09 h.

(B). The time interval between signals according to an observer on B is 1.09 h.

(C). The speed is 0.866c.

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a 1.45-g particle be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-directed
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

charge will be equal to 2.03\times 10^{-5}C  

Explanation:

We have given mass of the particle m = 1.45 gram = 0.00145 kg

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Electric field E = 700 N/C

Electric force will be equal to F=qE, here q is charge and E is electric field

For particle to be stationary this force must be equal to force due to gravity , that is mg force

So qE = mg

q=\frac{mg}{E}=\frac{0.00145\times 9.8}{700}=2.03\times 10^{-5}C

So charge will be equal to 2.03\times 10^{-5}C

Susan is quite nearsighted; without her glasses, her far point is 34 cm and her near point is 17 cm . Her glasses allow her to v
butalik [34]

Answer:

u=34cm

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Far point is V=34 cm

Near point is u=17 cm

Therefore

Focal Length

f=-34cm

Generally the equation for the Lens is mathematically given by

\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{v}

\frac{1}{u}=\frac{1}{-34}-\frac{1}{-17}

u=34cm

Are all liquids able to conduct an electric current
Alona [7]

The ions are able to carry electric current through a solution. Some liquids such as oil or alcohol do not form ions and do not conduct electricity. Vinegar is mostly water with a small amount of acetic acid in it. The acetic acid separates into ions on so that the solution conducts electricity.     BRAINLIST ME PEASE

To develop muscle tone, a woman lifts a 2.50 kg weight held in her hand. She uses her biceps muscle to flex the lower arm throug
Romashka [77]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to Torque as a function of the Force in proportion to the radius to which it is applied. In turn, we will use the concepts of energy expressed as Work, and which is described as the Torque's rate of change in proportion to angular displacement:

\tau = Fr

Where,

F = Force

r = Radius

Replacing we have that,

\tau = Fr

\tau = 21cm (\frac{1m}{100cm})* 550N

\tau = 11.55Nm

The moment of inertia is given by 2.5kg of the weight in hand by the distance squared to the joint of the body of 24 cm, therefore

I = 0.25Kg\cdot m^2 +(2.5kg)(0.24m)^2

I = 0.394kg\cdot m^2

Finally, angular acceleration is a result of the expression of torque by inertia, therefore

\tau = I\alpha \rightarrow \alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}

\alpha = \frac{11.55}{0.394}

\alpha = 29.3 rad/s^2

PART B)

The work done is equivalent to the torque applied by the distance traveled by 60 °° in radians (\pi / 3), therefore

W = \tau \theta

W = 11.5* \frac{\pi}{3}

W = 12.09J
