The spaceship Lilac, based on the Purple Planet, is 721 m long when measured at rest. When the Lilac passes Earth, observers there measure its length to be 661 m. At what speed v is the Lilac moving with respect to Earth? Express your answer as a multiple of the speed of light c.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The speed of Lilac is 0.399c.

Explanation:

The size of spaceship Lilac measured at the rest position = 721 m  

The length of  Lilac when it passes Earth = 661 m

Below is the calculation for speed at which Lilac is moving.

Here, L, is the length of spaceship when it passes the earth.

[tex]L_{0}[/tex] is the length of spaceship measured at rest.

V is the speed.

[tex]L = L_{0}\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}} \\[/tex]

[tex]1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}} = \left ( \frac{L}{L_{0}} \right )^{2} \\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{v}{c} = \sqrt{1-\left ( \frac{L}{L_{0}} \right )^{2}} \\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{v}{c} = \sqrt{1-\left ( \frac{661}{721} \right )^{2}} \\[/tex]

[tex]v = 0.399c[/tex]

A 46.0-kg box is being pushed a distance of 8.80 m across the floor by a force P whose magnitude is 171 N. The force P is parallel to the displacement of the box. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.250. Determine the work done on the box by (a) the applied force, (b) the friction force, (c) the normal force, and (d) by the force of gravity. Be sure to include the proper plus or minus sign for the work done by each force.

Answers

Answer:

a) 1504.8 J

b) 991.76 J

c) 0J

d) 0J

Explanation:

(a) The work done by the force P on the box is given by the following formula:

[tex]W_P=Px[/tex]

P: applied force = 171N

x: distance in which the for P is applied = 8.80m

you replace the values of P and x and obtain:

[tex]W_P=(171N)(8.80m)=1504.8J[/tex]

(b) The work don by the friction force is:

[tex]W_f=F_fx=\mu N x=\mu Mg x[/tex]

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.250

M: mass of the box = 46.0kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

[tex]W_f=(0.250)(46.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)(8.80m)=991.76J[/tex]

(c) The Normal force is

[tex]N=Mg=(46.0kg)(9,8m/s^2)=450.8N[/tex]

but this force does not do work on the box because the direction is perpendicular to the direction of the force P.

[tex]W_N=0J[/tex]

(d) the same as before:

If Jim could drive a Jetson's flying car at a constant speed of 440 km/hr across oceans and space, approximately how long (in millions of years, in 106 years) would he take to drive to a nearby star that is 12.0 light-years away? Use 9.461 × 1012 km/light-year and 8766 hours per year (365.25 days).

Answers

Answer:

t = 2.94 x 10⁶ years

Explanation:

The equation used in the case of constant speed is:

s = vt

t = s/v

where,

s = distance = 12 light years

s = (12 light years)(9.461 x 10¹² km/light year) =  113.532 x 10¹² km

v = speed = 440 km/hr

t = time passed = ?

Therefore,

t = (113.532 x 10¹² km)/(440 km/hr)

t = 2.58 x 10¹¹ hr

Now, converting it to years:

t = (2.58 x 10¹¹ hr)(1 year/8766 hr)

t = 2.94 x 10⁶ years

b) What is the resistance of the light bulb?

Answers

Given Information:

Power = P = 100 Watts

Voltage = V = 220 Volts

Required Information:

a) Current = I = ?

b) Resistance = R = ?

Answer:

a) Current = I = 0.4545 A

b) Resistance = R = 484 Ω

Explanation:

According to the Ohm’s law, the power dissipated in the light bulb is given by

[tex]P = VI[/tex]

Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and P is the power dissipated in the light bulb.

Re-arranging the above equation for current I yields,

[tex]I = \frac{P}{V} \\\\I = \frac{100}{220} \\\\I = 0.4545 \: A \\\\[/tex]

Therefore, 0.4545 A current is flowing through the light bulb.

According to the Ohm’s law, the voltage across the light bulb is given by

[tex]V = IR[/tex]

Where V is the voltage across the light bulb, I is the current flowing through the light bulb and R is the resistance of the light bulb.

Re-arranging the above equation for resistance R yields,

[tex]R = \frac{V}{I} \\\\R = \frac{220}{0.4545} \\\\R = 484 \: \Omega[/tex]

Therefore, the resistance of the bulb is 484 Ω

1. A block of metal of mass 2kg is resting on
a frictionless floor. It is struck by a jet
releasing water at the rate of 1kg/sec at a
speed of 5ms-1. What will be the initial
acceleration of the block?​

Answers

Answer:

The acceleration is  [tex]a = 2.5 \ m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the metal block is [tex]m_b = 2 \ kg[/tex]

    The mass flow rate of the water is  [tex]\r m = 1\ kg/s[/tex]

    The speed of the water of the water release is [tex]v_w = 5 m/s[/tex]

Generally according to the law of conservation of linear momentum

    [tex]p_i = p_f[/tex]

Now  [tex]p_i[/tex] is the initial momentum of the system which mathematically represented as

       [tex]p_i = m_w * v_w + m_b * v_b[/tex]

Now [tex]m_w[/tex] is the mass of water at the point of contact with the block which can be deduced as [tex]m_w = 1 \ kg[/tex]

Now since at initial the block is at rest

       [tex]v_b = 0 \ m/s[/tex]

So

      [tex]p_i = 1 * 5[/tex]

     [tex]p_i = 5 \ kgm/ s[/tex]

And  [tex]p_f[/tex] is the final  momentum of the system which mathematically represented as

     [tex]p_f = m_w * v__{fw} } + m_b * v__{fb}}[/tex]

So   [tex]v__{fw} }[/tex] is the final velocity of water which is zero due to the fact that when the water hits the block it losses its momentum and eventually the velocity becomes zero

    So

          [tex]5 = 2 * v__{fb }[/tex]

Thus  [tex]v__{fb }} = \frac{5}{2}[/tex]

        [tex]v__{fb }} = 2.5 \ m/s[/tex]

Thus  

       [tex]p_f = 2.5 * 2[/tex]

      [tex]p_f = 5 \ kgm /s[/tex]

Now the average momentum change is  

        [tex]p_a = \frac{p_i +p_f}{2}[/tex]

       [tex]p_a = \frac{5+5}{2}[/tex]

        [tex]p_a =5 kgm/s[/tex]

Now the force acting on the block is  

      [tex]F = \frac{p_a }{t}[/tex]

and from the question the initial movement of the block took 1s as it is a mass of water moving at a rate of 1kg/s that caused the first movement of the block

  So

        [tex]F= \frac{5}{1}[/tex]

       [tex]F= 5 \ N[/tex]

Now the acceleration is  

       [tex]a = \frac{F}{m_b}[/tex]

=>     [tex]a = \frac{5}{2}[/tex]

        [tex]a = 2.5 \ m/s^2[/tex]

what do hydroelectric plants use to generate electrical energy?

Answers

Answer:

A.  falling water

Explanation:

I got it right on Edgenuity. Good luck on your quiz.

In hydroelectric plants, water falls on turbine and makes it rotate. In generator, this mechanical energy transforms into electrical energy.

What is hydroelectric power?

Hydroelectric power is generated by turbines that turn the potential energy of falling or swiftly flowing water into mechanical energy, which is then used to power generators. The most popular renewable energy source in the early 21st century was hydroelectricity, which in 2019 accounted for more than 18% of the world's total power producing capacity.

Water is gathered or stored at a higher elevation during the production of hydroelectric power and then transported through substantial pipes or tunnels (penstocks) to a lower elevation; the difference between these two elevations is referred to as the head. The falling water turns turbines as it nears the bottom of the pipelines. In turn, the turbines power generators, which transfer the mechanical energy of the turbines into electricity.

Express your answer in terms of mmm and the acceleration due to gravity ggg.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Let v₁ and v₂ be velocities at lowest and topmost position . Let r be the radius of the circle .

Let N₁ and N₂ be the normal reaction force .

At the top position

centripetal force = N₂ + mg ;  so

N₂ + mg  = m v₂² / r

At the bottom  position

centripetal force = N₁ - mg ;  so

N₁ - mg  = m v₁² / r

subtracting these two equations

N₁ - mg - N₂ - mg = m v₁² / r  - m v₂² / r

N₁ - N₂ - 2mg = 1/r (m v₁²   - m v₂²  )

N₁ - N₂ - 2mg = 1/r x mg x 2r  ( loss of potential energy = gain of kinetic energy )

N₁ - N₂ =  2mg +  2mg

= 4 mg .

(b) Determine the relativistic momentum of one particle, as it would be observed by the other.

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]\vec{v}_{12}=2.86*10^{8} m/s[/tex]

b) [tex]p=2.81*10^{-16} kg*m/s[/tex]    

Explanation:

a) When we have two particles traveling in parallel directions, the formula for relative velocity is:

[tex]\vec{v}_{12}=\frac{\vec{v}_{1}-\vec{v}_{2}}{1-\frac{\vec{v}_{1}\vec{v}_{2}}{c^{2}}}[/tex]

Here we have that v(1) = -v(2), the speed of the of the second particle is the negative of the first one.

If we use these equivalence we have:

[tex]\vec{v}_{12}=\frac{2\vec{v}_{1}}{1+\frac{\vec{v}_{1}^{2}}{c^{2}}}[/tex]  

[tex]\vec{v}_{12}=\frac{2*2.19*10^{8}}{1+\frac{2.19*10^{16}}{3*10^{16}}}[/tex]  

[tex]\vec{v}_{12}=2.86*10^{8} m/s[/tex]          

And, [tex]\vec{v}_{21}=-2.86*10^{8} m/s[/tex]  

b) The relativistic momentum equation to one particle observed by the other particle, is:

[tex]p=\gamma mv[/tex]

Where gamma is:

[tex]\gamma = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}[/tex]

v is the speed of the first particle relative to the second particle ([tex]2.86*10^{8}[/tex])m is the mass of the particle [tex]2.97*10^{-25} kg[/tex]

Then gamma will be:

[tex]\gamma=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(2.86*10^{8})^{2}}{(3*10^{8})^{2}}}}[/tex]

[tex]\gamma=3.31[/tex]

Finally, the value of the momentum will be:

[tex]p=3.31*2.97*10^{-25}*2.86*10^{8}[/tex]    

[tex]p=2.81*10^{-16} kg*m/s[/tex]

The instantaneous speed of a particle moving along one straight line is v(t) = ate−6t, where the speed v is measured in meters per second, the time t is measured in seconds, and the magnitude of the constant a is measured in meters per second squared. What is its maximum speed, expressed as a multiple of a? (Do not include units in your answer.)

Answers

Answer:

v_max = (1/6)e^-1 a

Explanation:

You have the following equation for the instantaneous speed of a particle:

[tex]v(t)=ate^{-6t}[/tex]   (1)

To find the expression for the maximum speed in terms of the acceleration "a", you first derivative v(t) respect to time t:

[tex]\frac{dv(t)}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}[ate^{-6t}]=a[(1)e^{-6t}+t(e^{-6t}(-6))][/tex]  (2)

where you have use the derivative of a product.

Next, you equal the expression (2) to zero in order to calculate t:

[tex]a[(1)e^{-6t}-6te^{-6t}]=0\\\\1-6t=0\\\\t=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

For t = 1/6 you obtain the maximum speed.

Then, you replace that value of t in the expression (1):

[tex]v_{max}=a(\frac{1}{6})e^{-6(\frac{1}{6})}=\frac{e^{-1}}{6}a[/tex]

hence, the maximum speed is v_max = ((1/6)e^-1)a

A 65-g fish at rest just at the surface of the water can expel a 0.30-g drop of water in a short burst of 5.0 ms. High-speed measurements show that the water has a speed of 2.5 m/s just after the archerfish expels it. What is the speed of the archerfish immediately after it expels the drop of water?
(a) 0.0025 m/s
(b) 0.012 m/s
(c) 0.75 m/s
(d) 2.5 m/s.

Answers

Answer:

(b) 0.012 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

mass (m₁) of the drop of water = 0.30 g = 3.0 × 10⁻⁴ kg

mass (M₂) of the fish = 65 g =  65 × 10⁻³ kg

speed (v₁) of the water = 2.5 m/s

speed (v₂) of the archerfish = ??

By conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ - M₂v₂ = 0

m₁v₁  = M₂v₂

v₂ = m₁v₁ / M₂

v₂ =  ( 3.0 × 10⁻⁴ × 2.5 ) /  65 × 10⁻³

v₂ = 0.0115 m/s

v₂ ≅ 0.012 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the archerfish immediately after it expels the drop of water 0.012 m/s.

A 0.009 kg bullet fired through a door enters at 803 m/s and leaves at 617 m/s. If the door material is known to exert an average resistive force of 5620 N on bullets of this type at usual speeds, find the thickness of the door.

Answers

Answer:

The thickness of the door is 0.4230 m

Explanation:

Given;

mass of bullet, m = 0.009 kg

initial velocity of the bullet, u = 803 m/s

final velocity of the bullet, v = 617 m/s

average resistive force of the door on the bullet, F = 5620 N

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

Force exerted by the door on the bullet = Force of the moving bullet

F = ma

where;

F is applied force

m is mass

a is acceleration

Also, Force exerted by the door on the bullet = Force of the moving bullet

[tex]F =ma, \ But \ a =\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{u-v}{t} \\\\F = \frac{m(u-v)}{t}[/tex]

where;

v is the final velocity of the bullet

u is initial velocity of the bullet

t is time

We need to calculate the time spent by the bullet before it passes through the door.

[tex]t = \frac{m(u-v)}{F} \\\\t = \frac{0.009(803-617)}{5620} = 0.0002979 \ s[/tex]

Distance traveled by the bullet within this time period = thickness of the door

This distance is equivalent to the product of average velocity and time

[tex]S = (\frac{u+v}{2}) t[/tex]

where;

s is the distance traveled

[tex]S = (\frac{u+v}{2}) t\\\\S = (\frac{803+617}{2}) 0.0002979\\\\S = 0.4230 \ m[/tex]

Therefore, the thickness of the door is 0.4230 m

Mass of block A, (M1) = 4 kg

Speed of block A, (V1) = 2 m/s

Given values of block B.

 Mass of block B, (M2) = 8.4 kg

Speed of block B, (V2) = -6.1 m/s

Below is the formula to find the velocity of center of mass.

[tex]Velocity = \frac{M1V1 + M2V2}{M1 + M2} \\[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{4 \times 2 + 8.4 \times (-6.1) }{4 + 8.4} \\[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{- 43.24}{12.4}\\[/tex]

[tex]= - 3.487 m/s[/tex]

John runs 1.0 m/s at first, and then accelerates to 1.6 m/s during
the course of 4.5 seconds. What is his average acceleration (in
m/s2

Answers

Answer: [tex]0.13m/s^2[/tex]

Explanation:

[tex]Formula: a=\frac{V_2-V_1}{t}[/tex]

Where;

a = acceleration

V2 = final velocity

V1 = initial velocity

t = time

If John runs 1.0 m/s first, we assume this is V1. He accelerates to 1.6 m/s; this is V2.

[tex]a=\frac{1.6m/s-1.0m/s}{4.5s}[/tex]

[tex]a=\frac{0.6m/s}{4.5s}[/tex]

[tex]a=0.13m/s^2[/tex]
