an astronaut on the Moon could experience zero gravity, and would see stars and Earth.

Answer:

Since Moon's gravity is 0.167 times the gravity of Earth, astronaut would weigh very less. He would not be able to walk and would be to able to jump to large distance. Also, due to lack of atmosphere, the sky would appear black and stars would be visible all the time. The Earth would also have phases as viewed from the Moon.

a spaceship is traveling at a speed of 15000 km/s from planet b toward planet a the spaceship sends out a signal with a waveleng

Bumek [7]

Answer: 4nmeter

Explanation: The two observer a and b will measure the same wavelength since the speed of the space craft is very small compared with the speed of light c. That is

V which is the speed of space craft 15000km/s = 15000000m/s

Comparing this with the speed of light c 3*EXP(8)m/s we have

15000000/300000000

= 0.05=0.1

Therefore the speed of the space craft V in terms of the speed of light c is 0.1c special relativity does not apply to object moving at such speed. So the wavelength would not be contracted it will remain same for both observers.

Determine qual é a carga elétrica de um corpo que possui 1 milhão de partículas?

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

This can be translated to:

"find the electrical charge of a body that has 1 million of particles".

First, it will depend on the charge of the particles.

If all the particles have 1 electron more than protons, we will have that the charge of each particle is q = -e = -1.6*10^-19 C

Then the total charge of the body will be:

Q = 1,000,000*-1.6*10^-19 C = -1.6*10^-13 C

If we have the inverse case, where we in each particle we have one more proton than the number of electrons, the total charge will be the opposite of the one of before (because the charge of a proton is equal in magnitude but different in sign than the charge of an electron)

Q = 1.6*10^-13 C

But commonly, we will have a spectrum with the particles, where some of them have a positive charge and some of them will have a negative charge, so we will have a probability of charge that is peaked at Q = 0, this means that, in average, the charge of the particles is canceled by the interaction between them.
