Answer:

-1m

Explanation:

I'm assuming it means that you treat the distance travelled as a displacement vector (distance of a particular direction and magnitude)

If he turns 180 degrees, he is travelling in the exact opposite direction to his original direction of travel. Therefore if he was travelling 5m in one direction, then afer his turn he travels 6m in the exact opposite direction. Opposite directions can be interpreted as the negative of the original direction.

Resultant vectors are the sum of vectors.

The sum of vectors is equal to 5m + - 6m = -1m

A rocket passing the earth with high speed will look shorter for the stationary observer measuring the size on earth than travel
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This can be explained by the special theory of relativity for length contraction.

Length contraction is observed in the direction of motion of an object when an object moves with speed closer to the speed of light.

The length of the rocket in this case, appears shorter to the observer on earth in the stationary reference frame which is improper frame whereas the traveler in the rocket is in the same inertial frame which is proper for the rocket's size measurement.

What expression gives the amount of light energy (in J per photon) that is converted to other forms between the fluorescence exc
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

E = hf or E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

Explanation:

The expression that gives the amount of light energy that is converted to other forms between the fluorescence excitation and emission events is given by :

E = hf

f is the frequency

E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

c is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength

Hence, this is the required solution.
