Answer:

Relative; curved; gravity.

Explanation:

According to Einstein, space and time are relative and are parts of a whole universe that has four dimensions. Masses in the universe curved space-time, and the resulting shape of space-time cause gravity.

The above theory is known as the General Relativity or General Theory of Relativity and it was published in 1915 by Albert Einstein.

Basically, it states that universe curved space-time is directly proportional to the energy and momentum of matter and radiation that is present. Thus, gravity is the universe curved space-time caused by massive objects.

Calculate the index of refraction for a medium in which the speed of light is 2.1x 108 m/s. The speed of light in vacuum is 3x10

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

n = 1.42

Explanation:

The refractive index for a medium is given by the ratio of the speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in a medium.

$n=\dfrac{c}{v}\\\\n=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{2.1\times 10^8}\\\\n = 1.42$

So, the refractive index of the medium is 1.42.

A uniform brick of length 21 m is placed over

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

15.75 m

Explanation:

First, let's look at the top brick by itself. In order for it not to tip over the bottom brick, its center of gravity must be right at the edge of the bottom brick. So the edge of the top brick must be 10.5 m from the edge of the bottom brick.

Now let's look at both bricks as a combined mass. We know the total length of this combined brick is 10.5 m + 21 m = 31.5 m. And we know that for it to not tip over the edge of the surface, its center of gravity must be at the edge. So the edge of the combined brick must be 31.5 m / 2 = 15.75 m from the edge of the surface.

Riley is cleaning his room(a once a year activity) and pulls the Hoover with a force of 8 N a total distance of 20 metres. How m

Radda [10]

Answer:

160J

Explanation:

Given force = 8N and total distance = 20 meters

Workdone = force x distance

= 8 x 20

= 160J

Therefore, workdone by Riley in pulling the hoover is 160J

Two rigid tanks of equal size and shape are filled with different gases. The tank on the left contains oxygen, and the tank on t

fredd [130]

Answer:

The number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.

Explanation:

Given:

Molar mass of oxygen, $M_O=32$

Molar mass of hydrogen, $M_H=2$

We know ideal gas law as:

$PV=nRT$

where:

P = pressure of the gas

V = volume of the gas

n= no. of moles of the gas molecules

R = universal gs constant

T = temperature of the gas

∵ $n=\frac{m}{M}$

where:

m = mass of gas in grams

M = molecular mass of the gas

∴Eq. (1) can be written as:

$PV=\frac{m}{M}.RT$

$P=\frac{m}{V}.\frac{RT}{M}$

as: $\frac{m}{V}=\rho\ (\rm density)$

So,

$P=\rho.\frac{RT}{M}$

Now, according to given we have T,P,R same for both the gases.

$P_O=P_H$

$\rho_O.\frac{RT}{M_O}=\rho_H.\frac{RT}{M_H}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{\rho_O}{32}=\frac{\rho_H}{2}$

$\rho_O=16\rho_H$

∴The molecules of oxygen are more densely packed than the molecules of hydrogen in the same volume at the same temperature and pressure. So, <em>the number of oxygen molecules in the left container greater than the number of hydrogen molecules in the right container.</em>
