What constant acceleration is required to increase the speed of a car from 20 mi/h to 51 mi/h in 3 seconds

Physics
1 answer:
sdas [7]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity

a = (51 - 20) / 3 = 10⅓ mi/hr/s

which should probably be converted to standard units.

10⅓ mi/hr/s(5280 ft/mi) / 3600 s/hr) = 15.15555... ≈ 15.2 ft/s²

which is roughly half the acceleration of gravity.

You decide to roll a 0.11-kgkg ball across the floor so slowly that it will have a small momentum and a large de Broglie wavelen
Oksanka [162]

The de Broglie wavelength \lambda = 4.0\times 10^{-30}m

We know that

de Broglie wavelength = \lambda = \frac{h}{mv}\lambda = \frac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{0.11\times 1.5 \times 10 ^{-3}}

\lambda = 4.0\times 10^{-30}m

<h3>What is de Broglie wavelength?</h3>

According to the de Broglie equation, matter can behave like waves, much like how light and radiation do, which are both waves and particles. A beam of electrons can be diffracted just like a beam of light, according to the equation. The de Broglie equation essentially clarifies the notion of matter having a wavelength.

Therefore, whether a particle is tiny or macroscopic, it will have a wavelength when examined.

The wave nature of matter can be seen or observed in the case of macroscopic objects.

A rocket travels in the x-direction at speed 0.70c with respect to the earth. An experimenter on the rocket observes a collision
marishachu [46]

Answer:

A) The space time coordinate x of the collision in Earth's reference frame is

x \approx 103,46x10^{9}m.

B) The space time coordinate t of the collision in Earth's reference frame is

t=377,29s

Explanation:

We are told a rocket travels in the x-direction at speed v=0,70 c (c=299792458 m/s is the exact value of the speed of light) with respect to the Earth. A collision between two comets is observed from the rocket and it is determined that the space time coordinates of the collision are (x',t') = (3.4 x 10¹⁰ m, 190 s).

An event indicates something that occurs at a given location in space and time, in this case the event is the collision between the two comets. We know the space time coordinates of the collision seen from the reference frame of the rocket and we want to find out the space time coordinates in Earth's reference frame.

<em>Lorentz transformation</em>

The Lorentz transformation relates things between two reference frames when one of them is moving with constant velocity with respect to the other. In this case the two reference frames are the Earth and the rocket that is moving with speed v=0,70 c in the x axis.

The Lorentz transformation is

                          x'=\frac{x-vt}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

                                y'=y

                                z'=z

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

prime coordinates are the ones from the rocket reference frame and unprimed variables are from the Earth's reference frame. Since we want position x and time t in the Earth's frame we need the inverse Lorentz transformation. This can be obtained by replacing v by -v and swapping primed an unprimed variables in the first set of equations

                       x=\frac{x'+vt'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

                           y=y'

                           z=z'

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

First we calculate the expression in the denominator

                            \frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}=\frac{(0,70)^{2}c^{2}}{c^{2}} =(0,70)^{2}

                                \sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}} =0,714

then we calculate t

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

                      t=\frac{190s+\frac{0,70c}{c^{2}}.3,4x10^{10}m}{0,714}

                      t=\frac{190s+\frac{0,70c .3,4x10^{10}m}{299792458\frac{m}{s}}}{0,714}

                      t=\frac{190s+79,388s}{0,714}

finally we get that

                                     t=377,29s

then we calculate x

                         x=\frac{x'+vt'}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

                         x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+0,70c.190s}{0,714}}

                         x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+0,70.299792458\frac{m}{s}.190s}{0,714}}

                         x=\frac{3,4x10^{10}m+39872396914m}{0,714}}

                         x=\frac{73872396914m}{0,714}}

                         x=103462740775,91m

finally we get that

                                     x \approx 103,46x10^{9} m

The largest building in the world by volume is the Boeing 747 plant in Everett, Washington. It measures approximately 634 m long
Mazyrski [523]
So to get the volume, you're going to multiply all three together, but you have to make all the units the same first. The answer wants ft³, so you want to convert them all to feet. height = 109 ft, so that's fine already. Awesome. width = 710 yd, but that's an easy conversion to feet. Three feet equal one yard, so just multiply (710 yd) by (3 ft/1 yd) and that'll give you the width in ft. length = 634 m This one is a little tricker, but same principle. First convert meters to centimeters, like this: (634 m)(100 cm/1 m). Then take that number in cm and convert it into inches, knowing that 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters. So multiply the inches you have by (1 in/2.54 cm). Then you'll change that number into feet by dividing it by twelve, since there are twelve inches in each foot. Now you have all three measurements in feet. Just multiply them together to get the volume in ft³ and you're good to go! :)

What is the period if the block’s mass is doubled? note that you do not know the value of either m or k , so do not assume any p
Oksanka [162]

The period of the block's mass is changed by a factor of √2 when the mass of the block was doubled.

The time period T of the block with mass M attached to a spring of spring constant K is given by,

T = 2π(√M/K).

Let us say that, when we increased the mass to 2M, the time periods of the block became T', the spring constant is not changed, so, we can write,

T' = 2π(√2M/K)

Putting T = 2π(√M/K) above,

T' =√2T

So, here we can see, if the mass is doubled from it's initial value. The time period of the mass will be changed by a factor of √2.
