Answer:

1.04 s

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

t = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (v/c)^2)

here

v = 0.5c

t = 1.20 -s

So,

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5/c)^2)

1.20 = t' × 1 ÷ (√(1 - (0.5)^2)

1.20 = t' ÷ √0.75

1.20 = t' ÷ 0.866

t' = 0.866 × 1.20

= 1.04 s

The above formula should be applied

What is the kinetic energy of a 200 kg satellite as it follows a circular orbit of radius 8x106m around the earth?
motikmotik
Given the equation for the Speed of a Satellite

v = SqRt{Gravitational Constant}{Mass of Earth} divided by the radius given in your problem

we have:


(square root whole term on right side)

v = G Me
———
r


so. (6.67x10^-11)(5.97x10^24)
___________________
(8.0x10^6)


v = 7055 m/s (which is reasonable)


so utilize the Kinetic Energy Formula


KE = 1/2mv^2


KE = 1/2(200)(7055)^2


KE = 4.977x10^9 J

Amanda [17]

The sound mixer will need to increase the amplitude of the sound wave produced by the singer which will increase the loudness of the sound.

<h3>Amplitude of sound wave</h3>

The amplitude of a sound wave is the maximum vertical displacement of the sound wave.

The sound mixer will need to increase the amplitude of the sound wave produced by the singer.

The increase in the amplitude of the sound wave produced by the lower tune singer will result in increased loudness of the sound.

Thus, the sound mixer will need to increase the amplitude of the sound wave produced by the singer which will increase the loudness of the sound.
