Is an object on the surface of Earth sitting still relative to outer space?

Physics

DIA [1.3K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The object is not still as it observe from the outer space.

Explanation:

Our earth is not stationary.

It rotates about its own axis with the period of 24 hours and it revolves around the sun with the period of 1 year.

An object is said to be at rest if the position of the object with respect to time changes.

An object is said to be in motion when the position of the object changes with respect to time.

Both the terms rest and motion are relative to each other.  

If an observer observe an object on the earth from the outer space, he observe that the object s not still it is also moving as the earth is moving.

So, the object is not still as it observe from the outer space.

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Distance, d = 0.1 m

It is given that,

Initial velocity of meson,

Finally, the meson is coming to rest v = 0

Acceleration of the meson,  (opposite to initial velocity)

Using third equation of motion as :

s is the distance the meson travelled before coming to rest.

So,

 

s = 0.1 m

The meson will cover the distance of 0.1 m before coming to rest. Hence, this is the required solution.

In what region of the electromagnetic spectrum is a photon found that possesses twice as much energy as one in the blue region (
iren2701 [21]
<span>The answer is: ultraviolet The energy (E) of a photon is directly proportional to its frequency f, by Planck's formula: E = hf, where h is Planck's constant (6.625 * 10**-34 joule-second). The frequency is inversely proportional to the wavelength w by: f = c/w, where c is the speed of light, 3.0 * 10**8 meters per second. Combine these formulas and we see that the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength by: E = hc/w If the energy is inversely proportional to the wavelength, a photon with twice the energy has half the wavelength of our 442-nm. photon in this example. So its wavelength is 221 nm. which is in the ultraviolet range.</span>

Which would most likely cause specular reflection? O a pathway with rough rocks a shiny, smooth leaf a small patch of soil a rou
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a shiny smooth leaf

Explanation:

A shiny smooth leaf will cause specular reflection. Other choices will cause diffused reflection from the surface.

A specular reflection is similar to how a mirror or smooth surface reflects. The incident light is given off as a single ordered reflection from the surface of a body.

For this to occur, the surface incident must be smooth and without rough patterns on it.

A path way with rough rocks, small patch of soil and rough logs will give off diffused reflection
