Answer:

Fr = 102[N]

Explanation:

We must perform a free body diagram to understand the forces acting on Vin Diesel. In the attached image we see the forces related to his weight and the air resistance force.

We must analyze the forces in the Y axis, we see that we have the force of the air opposing the fall of Vin Diesel, in this way this force is negative since it opposes the movement, the fall.

∑Fy = 0

$F_{weight}-F_{air}=F_{r}\\F_{r}= 184-82\\F_{r}=102[N]$

An observer in frame S sees lightning simultaneously strike two points 100 m apart. The first strike occurs at xx1 = yy1 = zz1 =

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

a) 0, = -0.33 us

b) 140m

c) No, The event are not simultaneous i.e they did not occur at the same time, the second even (-0.33 usec) occurs 0.33 usec earlier than the first event.

Explanation:

the lorentz factor expression is written as;

y = 1₀ / √(1 - (v²/c²))

where v is the relative speed of an observer and c is the speed of light

so we were given that relative speed to be o.7c

therefore

y = 1 / √(1 - ((0.7c)² / c²))

y = 1 / √(1 - (0.49c² / c²))

y = 1 / √(1 - 0.49)

y = 1 / 0.7141

y = 1.4

1 - the coordinates of the first event, the s' frame of reference is,

x1 ' = y(x1 - vt1) = 0

y1 ' = y1, z1' = z1 and

t1 ' = y [t1 - v/c²x1]

= 0

2 - the coordinates of the second event, the s ' frame of reference is'

x2 ' = y(x2-vt2)

= 1.4(100m - 0)

= 140m

y2 ' = y2, z2 ' = z2

t2 ' = y [ t2 - v/c²x2 ]

= 1.4 [ 0 - 0.7c/c²(100) ]

using speed of light c as 3*10^8

1.4 [ 0 - (0.7*3*10^8) / (3*10^8)²(100) ]

= -0.33 us

distance between

delltaX' = X2' - X1'

= 140m - 0

= 140m

No, The event are not simultaneous i.e they did not occur at the same time.

the second even (-0.33 us) occurs 0.33 us earlier than the first event.

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to _____ energy.

lapo4ka [179]

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to D electrical energy. Its D because converting something has to do with recharging something and electronics have to charge. I hope I helped.
