A space station sounds an alert signal at time intervals of 1.00 h . Spaceships A and B pass the station, both moving at 0.400c0

relative to the station but in opposite directions.
Part A
How long is the time interval between signals according to an observer on A?
Part B
How long is the time interval between signals according to an observer on B?

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.

Determine the resultant moment of the forces acting about the x, y, and z axes. Suppose that f1 = 200 n, f2 = 60 n, f3 = 115 n,
SpyIntel [72]

Based on the forces acting on the axes, the resultant moments will be (345, 400, 600 N·m)

<h3>What would be resultant moment about x-axis?</h3>

= F₃ x 3

= -115 x 3

= -345 N·m

<h3>What would be resultant moment about y-axis?</h3>

= F₁ x 2

= -200 x 2

= -400 N·m

<h3>What would be the resultant moment about z-axis?</h3>

= F₄ x 2

= -300 x 2

= - 600 N·m

In conclusion, the resultant moment about x, y, and z axes is (345, 400, 600 N·m)

notsponge [240]

Answer:

4 x 10⁻⁴ J

Explanation:

C = 5000 pF, V = 400 V

Energy = CV²/2 = 5000 x 10⁻¹² x 400²/2 = 4 x 10⁻⁴ J
