Why is acceleration not constant near the speed of light

Physics
1 answer:
dmitriy555 [2]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

because when an object approaches the speed of light, it's mass starts to increase exponentially, and would be infinite at the speed of light. It would therefore require MORE than an infinite amount of energy to accelerate even a single electron to the speed of light

A boat race runs along a triangular course marked by buoys A, B, and C. The race starts with the boats headed west for 3700 mete
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The  last two bearings are

49.50° and 104.02°

Explanation:

Applying the Law of cosine (refer to the figure attached):

we have

x² = y² + z² - 2yz × cosX

here,

x, y and z represents the lengths of sides opposite to the angels X,Y and Z.

Thus we have,

cos X=\frac{x^2-y^2-z^2}{-2yz}

or

cos X=\frac{y^2 + z^2-x^2}{2yz}

substituting the values in the equation we get,

cos X=\frac{2900^2 + 3700^2-1700^2}{2\times 2900\times 3700}

or

cos X=0.8951

or

X = 26.47°

similarly,

cos Y=\frac{1700^2 + 3700^2-2900^2}{2\times 1700\times 3700}

or

cos Y=0.649

or

Y = 49.50°

Consequently, the angel Z = 180° - 49.50 - 26.47 = 104.02°

The bearing of 2 last legs of race are angels Y and Z.

As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave ___ the frequency of the wave ________.
adoni [48]

Answer:

As the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave _decrease__ the frequency of the wave _increase_______.

Explanation:

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength?

Wavelength and frequency of light are closely related. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength. Because all light waves move through a vacuum at the same speed, the number of wave crests passing by a given point in one second depends on the wavelength.

That number, also known as the frequency, will be larger for a short-wavelength wave than for a long-wavelength wave. The equation that relates wavelength and frequency is:

V= fλ

where v= velocity

           f= frequency

            λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ  

also f ∝ 1/λ

For electromagnetic radiation, the speed is equal to the speed of light, c, and the equation becomes:

C= fλ

where c= Speed of light

           f= frequency

            λ = wavelength

⇒ f = v/λ  

also f ∝ 1/λ

An automatic clothing drier spins at 51.6 rev/min. If the radius of the drier drum is 30.5cm, how fast (in m/s) is the drier dru
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

1.648 m/s

Explanation:

1 revolution equals 2pi radians.

Calculate the angular velocity by taking 2pi x v, then divide by 60 seconds.

To convert this to m/s, simply take this answer and multiply it by 0.305m (a.k.a. the radius of the circle).
