You are packing for a trip to another star, and on your journey you will be traveling at a speed of 0.99c. Can you sleep in a smaller cabin than usual, because you will be shorter when you lie down? Explain your answer.
Explanation:
No. From your own reference frame, nothing will change. Everything will look the same to you even if you're traveling at 99% speed of light. However, an outside observer will see you shrink to about 14% of your original length along the direction of your motion according to the Lorentz contraction predicted by special relativity:

A balloon is filled with 80 liters of gas on a day where the temperature was 34 degrees at sea level which is 101.3 kPa and released. As the balloon rises to a certain altitude, the temperature drops to 0 degrees celsius and the balloon doubles in volume. What is the atmospheric pressure at that altitude?
Answer:
0.444atm
Explanation:
Using the combined gas law equation;
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
Where;
P1 = initial pressure (
P2 = final pressure (
V1 = initial volume (L)
V2 = final volume (L)
T1 = initial temperature (K)
T2 = final temperature (K)
According to this question,
P1 = 101.3 kPa = 101.3 × 0.00987 = 0.999atm
P2 = ?
V1 = 80L
V2 = 160L (double of V1)
T1 = 34°C = 34 + 273 = 307K
T2 = 0°C = 0 + 273 = 273K
Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
0.999 × 80/307 = P2 × 160/273
79.92/307 = 160P2/273
Cross multiply
307 × 160P2 = 79.92 × 273
49120P2 = 21818.16
P2 = 21818.16 ÷ 49120
P2 = 0.444
P2 = 0.444atm
A skateboarder is inside of a half pipe, shown here. Explain her energy transformations as she jumps off at point A, slides to point B, and finally reaches point C.
A swift blow with the hand can break a pine board. As the hand hits the board, the kinetic energy of the hand is transformed into elastic potential energy of the bending board; if the board bends far enough, it breaks. Applying a force to the center of a particular pine board deflects the center of the board by a distance that increases in proportion to the force. Ultimately the board breaks at an applied force of 870 N and a deflection of 1.4 cm.
a. To break the board with a blow from the hand, how fast must the hand be moving? Use 0.50 kg for the mass of the hand.
b. If the hand is moving this fast and comes to rest in a distance of 1.2 cm, what is the average force on the hand?
Answer:
A. The hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.
B. Average force on the hand = 1025 N
Explanation:
A.To determine the speed the hand must move with to break the board, the force workdone in breaking the board is found first.
Workdone = force × distance
Minimum force required = 870 N;
Distance moved by board/Deflection in order to break = 1.4 cm = 0.014 M
Workd done = 870 N × 0.014 m = 12.18 Nm or 12.18 J
This work done = Kinetic energy of the hand
Kinetic energy = mv²/2 ; where m is mass and v is velocity
Mass of hand = 0.50 Kg, velocity = ?, K.E. = 12.18 J
v² = 2 KE/m
v = √2KE/m
v = √(2 × 12.18/0.50)
v = 6.98 m/s
Therefore, the hand must move with a velocity of 6.98 m/s to break the board.
B. Average force on the hand
This can be determined using the equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as to find acceleration, since force = mass × acceleration
From the equation of motion, a = v² - u²/2s
At rest, v = 0, u = 6.98, s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m
a = 0² - 6.98²/ 2 × 0.012
a = -2030 m/s²
Force = 2030 m/s² × 0. 50 kg = 1015 N
Therefore, Average force on the hand = 1025 N
An empty parallel plate capacitor is connected between the terminals of a 8.85-V battery and charges up. The capacitor is then disconnected from the battery, and the spacing between the capacitor plates is doubled. As a result of this change, what is the new voltage between the plates of the capacitor
Answer:
The new voltage is 17.7 V.
Explanation:
Voltage, V = 8.85 V
The spacing is doubled.
When it is disconnected, the charge remains same,
q = C V ..... (1)
where, C is the capacitance, V is the voltage.
The capacitance is inversely proportional to the distance between the two plates.
So, when the spacing is doubled, the capacitance is halved.
Let the new voltage is V'.
C V = C' V'
C x 8.85 = C/2 x V'
V' = 17.7 V

A 620 N physics student stands on a bathroom scale in an elevator that is supported by a cable. The combined mass of student plus elevator is 870 kg. As the elevator starts moving, the scale reads 450 N.
Required:
a. Find the acceleration of the elevator (magnitude and direction).
b. What is the acceleration if the scale reads 670 N?
c. If the scale reads zero, should the student worry? Explain.
d. What is the tension in the cable in parts (a) and (c)?
Answer:
(a) 9.28 m/s2
(b) 9.03 m/s2
(c) 9.8 m/s2
(d) 450 N, 670 N
Explanation:
mass of elevator + student, m = 870 kg
Reading of scale, R = 450 N
(a) When the elevator goes down, the weight decreases.
Let the acceleration is a.
By the Newton's second law
m g - R = m a
870 x 9.8 - 450 = 870 a
a = 9.28 m/s2
(b) R = 670 N
Let the acceleration is a.
870 x 9.8 - 670 = 870 a
a = 9.03 m/s2
(c) If the scale reads zero, it mean the elevator is falling freely. The acceleration is downwards and its value is 9.8 m/s2.
(d) Tension in cable is 450 N and 670 N.

To a man running east at the rate of 3m/s vain appears to fall vertically with a speed of 4m/s. Find the actual speed and direction of rain...
Answer:
The actual speed of the rain is 5 m/s and its direction is -53.13°
Explanation:
The actual speed of the rain V = speed of man, v + speed of rain relative to man, v'.
V = v + v'
We add these vectorially.
Since the man's speed is 3 m/s east, in the positive x - direction, we have v = 3i and the rain's speed is falling vertically at 4 m/s, in the negative y- direction, we have v' = -4j
So, V = v + v'
V = 3i + (-4j)
V = 3i - 4j
So, the magnitude of V which is its speed is V = √(3² + (-4)²) = √(9 + 16) = √25 = 5 m/s
The direction of V, Ф = tan⁻¹(vertical component/horizontal component) = tan⁻¹(-4/3) = tan⁻¹(-4/3) = tan⁻¹(-1.333) = -53.13°
So, the actual speed of the rain is 5 m/s and its direction is -53.13°

A 2.7 kg mass is connected to a spring (k=159 N/m) and is sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface. The mass is given an initial displacement of +19 cm and released with an initial velocity of -13 cm/s. Determine the acceleration of the spring at t=3.4 seconds.
Answer:
The acceleration of the spring at [tex]t = 3.4\,s[/tex] is -29339.947 centimeters per square second.
Explanation:
The mass-spring system experiments a Simple Harmonic Motion, whose kinematic expression is the following:
[tex]x(t) = A\cdot \cos \left(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot t + \phi\right)[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]x(t)[/tex] - Position, in centimeters.
[tex]A[/tex] - Amplitude, in centimeters.
[tex]k[/tex] - Spring constant, in newtons per meter.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, in kilograms.
[tex]\phi[/tex] - Phase, in radians.
By Differential Calculus, we derive expression for the velocity and acceleration of the mass-spring system:
[tex]v(t) = -\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot A\cdot \sin \left(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot t +\phi\right)[/tex] (2)
[tex]a(t) = -\frac{k\cdot A}{m}\cdot \cos \left(\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }\cdot t +\phi\right)[/tex] (3)
Where [tex]v(t)[/tex] and [tex]a(t)[/tex] are the velocity and acceleration of the system, in centimeters per second and centimeters per square second, respectively.
If we know [tex]m = 2.7\,kg[/tex], [tex]k = 159\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], [tex]t = 0\,s[/tex], [tex]x(t) = 19\,cm[/tex] and [tex]v(t) = -13\,\frac{cm}{s}[/tex], then we have the following system of nonlinear equations:
[tex]A \cdot \cos \phi = 19[/tex] (1)
[tex]-7.674\cdot A \cdot \sin \phi = - 13[/tex] (2)
If we divide (2) by (1):
[tex]-7.674\cdot \tan \phi = -0.684[/tex]
[tex]\tan \phi = 0.089[/tex]
[tex]\phi = \tan^{-1} 0.089[/tex]
[tex]\phi \approx 0.028\,rad[/tex]
By (1), we get the value of the amplitude:
[tex]A = \frac{19}{\cos \phi}[/tex]
[tex]A = 19.075\,cm[/tex]
If we know that [tex]A = 19.075\,cm[/tex], [tex]k = 159\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], [tex]m = 2.7\,kg[/tex], [tex]t = 3.4\,s[/tex] and [tex]\phi \approx 0.028\,rad[/tex], then the acceleration of the spring is:
[tex]a(t) = -29339.947\,\frac{cm}{s^{2}}[/tex]
The acceleration of the spring at [tex]t = 3.4\,s[/tex] is -29339.947 centimeters per square second.

You take your pulse and observe 80 heartbeats in a minute. What is the period of your heartbeat? What is the frequency of your heartbeat?
Answer:
120 beats per minute.
Explanation:
If I take your pulse and observe 80 heartbeats in a minute. Then the period of your heartbeat is 0.8 s and frequency is 1.3Hz.
What is Heartbeat ?A pulse is the term used in medicine to describe the tactile arterial palpation of the cardiac cycle (heartbeat) by skilled fingertips. Any location where an artery can be compressed close to the surface of the body, such as the carotid artery in the neck, the radial artery in the wrist, the femoral artery in the groyne, the popliteal artery behind the knee, the posterior tibial artery near the ankle joint, and on the foot, can be used to palpate the pulse (dorsalis pedis artery). Heart rate may be determined by monitoring pulse, or the number of arterial pulses per minute. Auscultation, which is the process of counting the heartbeats while listening to the heart using a stethoscope, is another way to determine the heart rate. Typically, three fingers are used to gauge the radial pulse.
Given,
heart beat = 80 beats/min = 1.3 beats/s
Frequency is nothing but how much beats is heart having in one second and that is 1.3 beats/s. Hence frequency of heart is 1.3Hz.
The Period is reciprocal of frequency,
T = 1/f = 0.8 s
