Two electrons travel towards each other at 0.2 c parallel to the laboratory x-axis. What is the relative velocity of one electro

Leya [2.2K]

1) In the reference frame of one electron: 0.38c

To find the relative velocity of one electron with respect to the other, we must use the following formula:

$u'=\frac{u-v}{1-\frac{uv}{c^2}}$

where

u is the velocity of one electron

v is the velocity of the second electron

c is the speed of light

In this problem:

u = 0.2c

v = -0.2c (since the second electron is moving towards the first one, so in the opposite direction)

Substituting, we find:

$u'=\frac{0.2c+0.2c}{1+\frac{(0.2c)(0.2c)}{c^2}}=\frac{0.4c}{1+0.04}=0.38c$

2) In the reference frame of the laboratory: -0.2c and +0.2c

In this case, there is no calculation to be done. In fact, we are already given the speed of the two electrons; we are also told that they travel in opposite direction, so their velocities are

+0.2c

-0.2c

A bumper cart has a mass of 200 kg and has a protective bumper around it that behaves like a spring. The spring constant is 5000

34kurt

Part A:
For this part we’re assuming all the kinetic energy of the moving bumper car is converted into elastic potential energy in the spring since the car is brought to rest. Therefore you can find the total kinetic energy to get your answer:

KE = ½ mv^2
KE = ½ (200)(8)^2
KE = 6400 J

Part B:
Now you can use Hooke’s law to find the force:

F = kx
F = (5000)(0.2)
F = 1000 N

How much weight can a man lift in the jupiter if he can lift 100kg on the earth.calculate

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

<h3>2479 Newton</h3>

Solution,

Mass=100 kg

Acceleration due to gravity(g)=24.79 m/s^2

Now,.

 $weight = m \times g \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 100 \times 24.79 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: = 2479 \: newton$ 

hope this helps ..

Good luck on your assignment..

Unlike acceleration and velocity, speed does not need to specify

frosja888 [35]

Unlike acceleration and velocity, speed does not need to specify the direction of motion. Speed is a scalar quality.
