<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.
Explanation:
If two particles are involved in an elastic collision, the velocity of the second particle after collision can be expressed as: v2f=2⋅m1(m2+m1)v1i+(m2−m1)(m2+m1)v2i v 2 f = 2 ⋅ m 1 ( m 2 + m 1 ) v 1 i + ( m 2 − m 1 ) ( m 2 + m 1 ) v 2 i .
Answer:
Explanation:
Given a school bus.
Let say initially the school bus is traveling with speed "v"
Let assume mass of school bus is "m"
Then, the initial kinetic energy is
K.E_initial = ½mv²
Now, if the initial velocity is tripled,
Then, the new velocity is
v_new = 3v.
Note: the mass of the school does not change it is constant
Then, new kinetic energy is
K.E_new = ½m(v_new)²
v_new = 3v
Then,
K.E_new = ½m(3v)²
K.E_new = ½m × 9v²
K.E_new = 9 × ½mv²
Since K.E = ½mv²
Then,
K.E_new = 9 × K.E
So, the new kinetic energy will be 9 times the initial kinetic energy.
So, option D is correct
D. It will be nine times greater.
Answer:
Is considered as not as dangerous as AC
Answer:
v = 7.67 m/s for L= 1m
Explanation:
Let's use the conservation of mechanical energy, at the highest point and the lowest point
Initial. Vertical ruler
Em₀ = mg h
Final. Just before touching the floor
= K = ½ I w²
Em₀ = 
m g h = ½ I w²
The moment of inertia of a ruler that turns on one end is
I = 1/3 m L²
Let's replace
m g h = ½ (1/3 m L²) w²2
g h = 1/6 L² w²
They ask for the speed of the end so the height h is equal to the length of the ruler
g L = 1/6 L² w²
The linear and angular variables are related
v = w r
w = v / r
In this case the point of interest a in strangers r = L
g L = 1/6 L² v² / L²
v = √ 6 g L
Let's calculate
Assume that the length of the meter is L = 1 m
v = √ (6 9.8 1)
v = 7.67 m/s
