Answer:

19.2*10^6 s

Explanation:

The equation for time dilation is:

t = \frac{t'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}

Then, if it is observed to have a life of 6*10^6 s, and it travels at 0.95 c:

t = \frac{6*10^6}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.95c)^2}{c^2}}} = 19.2*10^6 s

It has a lifetime of 19.2*10^6 s when observed from a frame of reference in which the particle is at rest.

A certain automobile is 6.0 m long if at rest. If it is measured to be 4.8 m long while moving, its speed is:
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

1.8*10^8m/s

Explanation:

Using

L= lo√1-v²/c²

So making v subject we have

V= c√1-4.8²/6²

V= 0.6*c

V= 0.6*3E8m/s

V= 1.8*10^8m/s

A 75-kilogram hockey player is skating across the ice at a speed of 6.0 meters per second. What is the magnitude of the average
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

(3) 690 N

Explanation:

Force: This is the product of mass and acceleration of a body. The S.I unit of force is Newton(N).

The formula for force is given as,

F = ma..................... Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass, a = acceleration.

Also,

a = (v-u)/t................... Equation 2

Where v = Final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Given: u = 6.0 m/s, v = 0 m/s (bring to stop), t = 0.65 s.

Substitute into equation 2

a = (0-6)/0.65

a = -6/0.65

a = -9.23 m/s²

Also given: m = 75 kg

Substitute again into equation 1

F = 75(-9.23)

F = -692.25 N

The negative sign tells that the force oppose the motion of the player

F ≈ 690 N

Hence the right option is (3) 690 N

A Explain why the sound produced by the horn of an approaching car
aleksklad [387]
When a car approaches you, the sound waves that reach you have a shorter wavelength and a higher frequency. You hear a sound with a higher pitch. When the car moves away from you, the sound waves that reach you have a longer wavelength and lower frequency.

?? ⬇️

An approaching source moves closer during period of the sound wave so the effective wavelength is shortened, giving a higher pitch since the velocity of the wave is unchanged. Similarly the pitch of a receding sound source will be lowered.

The Doppler effect is an effect observed in light and sound waves as they move toward or away from an observer. One simple example of the Doppler effect is the sound of an automobile horn. Picture a person standing on a street corner. A car approaches, blowing its horn.

Comparing two waves of the same wavelength, a higher frequency is associated with faster movement. Comparing two waves of different wavelengths, a higher frequency doesn't always indicate faster movement, although it can. Waves of different wavelengths can have the same frequency.

The pitch of a sound is our ear's response to the frequency of sound. Whereas loudness depends on the energy of the wave. ... The pitch of a sound depends on the frequency while loudness of a sound depends on the amplitude of sound waves.

Find :
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

b) Gravity reduces the initial upward velocity to zero in a time of

t = v/g = 40/10 = 4 s

a) h =  v₀t + ½gt² = 40(4) +  ½(-10)4² = 80 m

or

v² = u² + 2as

h = (0² - 40²) / 2(-10) = 80 m
