Answer:

A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.

Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...

A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

Explanation:

hope this helps...

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Complete question:

Part A:) The fictional rocket ship Adventure is measured to be 50 m long by the ship's captain inside the rocket.When the rocket moves past a space dock at 0.5c , space-dock personnel measure the rocket ship to be 43.3 m long. The rocket ship Adventure travels to a star many light-years away, then turns around and returns at the same speed. When it returns to the space dock, who would have aged less: the space-dock personnel or ship's captain?

Part B: What is the momentum of a proton traveling at 0.62 c ?

Answer

a)Who would have aged less=The Captain would have aged less

b) p=3.96*10^{-19}kgm/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Length measured by captain l_c=50m

Speed of rocket past tje space dock V=0.5c

Length measured by space-dock personnel l_c=43.3m

a)

Generally time moves slower when moving at speed of light, due to time dilation or variation.

Who would have aged less=The Captain would have aged less

b)

Generally the equation for Relativistic Momentum  is mathematically given as

p=\frac{m*v}{1 - v^2/c^2}

p=\frac{1.67*10^2-27*0.62*3.0*10^8)}{\sqrt{ 1 -0.6^2}}

p=3.96*10^{-19}kgm/s

A penny is dropped from the top of a building that is 300.0 m tall. Calculate the speed of the penny as it hits the ground. (met
Sauron [17]

We have the equation of motion s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2, where s is the displacement, a is the acceleration, u is the initial velocity and t is the time taken.

Here s = 300 m, u = 0 m/s, a = 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting

   300 = 0*t+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*t^2\\ \\ 4.9t^2 = 300\\ \\ t =7.82 seconds

Now we have v = u+at, where v is the final velocity

Here u = 0 m/s, a= 9.81 m/s^2 and t = 7.82 seconds

Substituting

     v = 0+9.8*7.82 = 76.68 m/s

The speed with which the penny strikes the ground = 76.68 m/s.

If you walk at an average speed of 5 km/h for 30 minutes, how
Inessa05 [86]

The distance that would be accumulated during the journey is 2.5 meters

The parameters given in the question are  written below;

average speed= 5 km/hr

time = 30 minutes

convert 30 minutes to hours

= 30/60

= 0.5 hours

Distance-= speed × time

= 5 × 0.5

= 2.5 meters

Hence the distance of the entire journey is 2.5 meters

Consider two waves defined by the wave functions y1(x,t)=0.50msin(2π3.00mx+2π4.00st) and y2(x,t)=0.50msin(2π6.00mx−2π4.00st). Wh
guapka [62]

Answer:

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Explanation: comparing the wave equation above with the general wave equation

y(x,t) = Asin(2Πft + 2Πx/¶)

Let ¶ be the wavelength

A is the amplitude

f is the frequency

t is the time

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.
