Astronaut mark uri is space-traveling from planet x to planet y at a speed of relative to the planets, which are at rest relativ

lyudmila [28]

<span>From the point of view of the astronaut, he travels between planets with a speed of 0.6c. His distance between the planets is less than the other bodies around him and so by applying Lorentz factor, we have 2*</span>√1-0.6² = 1.6 light hours. On the other hand, from the point of view of the other bodies, time for them is slower. For the bodies, they have to wait for about 1/0.6 = 1.67 light hours while for him it is 1/(0.8) = 1.25 light hours. The remaining distance for the astronaut would be 1.67 - 1.25 = 0.42 light hours. And then, light travels in all frames and so the astronaut will see that the flash from the second planet after 0.42 light hours and from the 1.25 light hours is, 1.25 - 0.42 = 0.83 light hours or 49.8 minutes.

A school bus moves at speed of 35 mi/hr for 20 miles. How long will it take the bus to get to school

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming school is at the end of the 20 mile route, then

20 mi / 35 mi/hr = 0.57142...hr

which is about 34 minutes 17 seconds

We would be more likely to get an accurate measurement of the distance from Earth to a nearby star if we took the angular measur

NeTakaya

Answer:

6 month interval

Explanation:

The distance to a nearby star in theory is more simple than

one might think! First we must learn about the parallax effect. This is the mechanism our eyes use to perceive things at a distance! When we look at the star from the earth we see it at different angles throughout the earth's movement around the sun similar to how we see when we cover on eye at a time. Modern telescopes and technology can help calculate the angle of the star to the earth with just two measurements (attached photo!) Since we know the distance of the earth from the sun we can use a simple trigonometric function to calculate the distance to the star. The two measurements needed to calculate the angle of the star to the earth caused by parallax (in short angle θ) are shown in the second attached photo.

So using a simple trigonometric function $Sin\theta=\frac{r}{d}$ we can solve for d which is the distance of the earth to the star:
