Alex, parked by the side of an east-west road, is watching car P, which is moving in a westerly direction. Barbara, driving east

at a speed 52 km/h, watches the same car. Take the easterly direction as positive. If Alex measures a speed of 78 km/h for car P, what velocity will Barbara measure?

Answer:

v_{PB} = 130\ km/h

Explanation:

Since, Alex is at rest. Therefore, the speed measured by him will be the absolute speed of car P. Therefore, taking easterly direction as positive:

Absolute\ Velocity\ of\ Car\ P = v_{P} = -78\ km/h

And the absolute velocity of Barbara's Car is given as:Absolute\ Velocity\ of\ Barbara's\ Car = v_{B} = 52\ km/h

Now, for the velocity of Car p with respect to the velocity of Barbara's Car can be given s follows:

Velocity\ of\ Car\ P\ measured\ by\ Barbara = v_{PB} = v_{B}-v_{P}\\\\v_{PB} = 52\ km/h-(-78\ km/h)

v_{PB} = 130\ km/h

What is the difference between sodium atom and a sodium ion
ludmilkaskok [199]
Pretty much any element(in your case sodium) contain these properties.

Atoms can be an ion, but not all ions are atoms. The difference between an atom and an ion has to do with net electrical charge. An ion is a particle or collection of particles with a net positive or negative charge. ... A stable atom contains the same number of electrons as protons and no net charge

The smallest detail visible with ground-based solar telescopes is about 1 arc second. How large a region (in km) does this repre
mestny [16]

Answer:

x = 727.5 km

Explanation:

With the conditions given using trigonometry, we can find the tangent

       tan θ = CO / CA

With CO the opposite leg and CE is the adjacent leg which is the distance from the Tierral to Sun

   

        D =150 10⁶ km (1000m / 1 km)

        D = 150 10⁹ m.

We must take the given angle to radians.

       1º  = 3600 arc s  

       π rad = 180º

       θ = 1 arc s (1º / 3600 s arc) (pi rad / 180º) =

       θ = 4.85 10⁻⁶ rad

That angle is extremely small, so we can approximate the tangent to the angle

     

       θ = x / D

       x = θ D

       x = 4.85 10-6  150 109

       x = 727.5 103 m

       x = 727.5 km
