An object is made of glass and has the shape of a cube 0.13 m on a side, according to an observer at rest relative to it. Howeve

r, an observer moving at high speed parallel to one of the object's edges and knowing that the object's mass is 3.3 kg determines its density to be 8100 kg/m3, which is much greater than the density of glass. What is the moving observer's speed (in units of c) relative to the cube

Answer:

v=0.9833\ c

Explanation:

The density changes means that the length in the direction of the motion is changed.

Therefore,

$\text{Density} = \frac{m}{lwh}$

Given :

Side,  b = h = 0.13 m

Mass, m = 3.3 kg

Density = 8100 kg/m^3

So,

$8100=\frac{3.3}{l \times 0.13 \times 0.13}$

$l=\frac{3.3}{8100 \times 0.13 \times 0.13}$

l = 0.024 m

Then for relativistic length contraction,

$l= l' \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$0.024= 0.13 \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$0.184=  \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$0.033=  1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$\frac{v^2}{c^2}= 0.967$

$\frac{v}{c}=0.9833$

v=0.9833\ c

Therefore, the speed of the observer relative to the cube is 0.9833 c (in the units of c).

Please help im stuck and can't find the answer sheet ANYWHERE :(​ PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

All steps are 20 * 100  (break the rest into appropriate pieces)

You can multiply as follows

(2000) * ((3 * 60) + (2 * 60) + 60)

V = 2000 * 6 * 60) = 720,000 cm^3 = .72 m^3

.72 m^3 * 2400 kg / m^3 = 1728 kg

CClassify each characteristic of sound waves.
Alex787 [66]

Explanation : Explain each characteristic of sound waves.

Intensity : the intensity of the sound wave is understand as the power carry by sound wave per unit area in the direction perpendicular to that area.

Loudness :  loudness is the quality of the loud and soft of the sound wave.

Frequency : Human normal hear sound frequency between 20 Hz to kHz.

Pitch : Pitch is the quality of low and high of sound wave . pitch relates to the frequency of the slowest vibration in the sound wave for simple sound.

The maximum force that a grocery bag can withstand without ripping is 250 n. Suppose that the bag is filled with 20 kg of grocer
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Groceries stay in the bag.

Explanation:

Given:

Maximum force = 250 N

Bag filled with = 20 kg

Lifted acceleration = 5.0\ m/s^2

Solution:

We need to calculate the exerted force on the grocery bag by using Newton's second law.

F = ma

Where:

F = Exerted force on the object.

m = Mass of the object in kg

a = Acceleration of the object in m/s^2

Now, we substitute m = 20 kg and a = 5.0\ m/s^2 in Newton's second law,

F = 20\times 5.0

F = 100\ m/s^2

Since, the exerted force on the bag is less than 250 N, the groceries will stay in the bag.

1. What is the potential energy of a 5.0-kg
babymother [125]

Answer:

  C.  98 J

Explanation:

The appropriate formula is ...

  PE = mgh . . . . . m is mass; below, m is meters

  PE = (5 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(2 m) = 98 kg·m^2/s^2

  PE = 98 J
