The operator of a space station observes a space vehicle approaching at a constant speed v. The operator sends a light signal at

speed c toward the space vehicle. What is the speed of the light signal as viewed from the space vehicle

Answer:

The speed of the light signal as viewed from the observer is c.

Explanation:

Recall the basic postulate of the theory of relativity that the speed of light is the same in ALL inertial frames. Based on this, the speed of light is independent of the motion of the observer.

alexira [117]

Answer:

<em>A) Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

Explanation:

If we have two waves with the same wavelength, then their intensity is proportional to their power, or the energy per unit time.

We also know that the amount of photon present in an electromagnetic beam is proportional to the energy of the beam, hence the amount of beam per second is proportional to the power.

With these two facts, we can say that the intensity is a measure of the amount of photon per second in an electromagnetic beam. So we can say that <em>beam B carries twice as more power than beam A, or Beam B carries twice as many photons per second as beam A.</em>

What is the mass of an object that creates 33,750 joules of energy by traveling at 30 m/sec?
nikklg [1K]
The Energy is Kinetic Energy.

Kinetic Energy = 1/2*mv²,  Where m is mass in kg, v is velocity in m/s

Energy is 33750 Juoles,  v = 30m/s

1/2*mv² = E

1/2*m*30² = 33750

m = (2*33750) / (30²)     Using a calculator

m = 75 kg

Mass of object is 75 kg.

Digiron [165]
All forces on the bullets cancel so that the net force on a bullet is zero, which means the bullet has zero acceleration and is in a state known as constant velocity. The bullet is moving at a constant value of velocity. Acceleration is the rate of velocity so having zero acceleration would mean that there is no change in velocity per unit of time.<span />

La luz pasa del medio A al medio B formando un ángulo de 35° con la frontera horizontal entre ambos. Si el ángulo de refracción
zaharov [31]

Answer:

Índice de refracción entre los dos medios = 1,43

Refractive index between the two media = 1.43

Explanation:

El índice de refracción entre dos medios se explica mejor entendiendo primero la refracción.

Cuando las olas se mueven de un medio a otro, a menudo experimentan un cambio de dirección con respecto al medio en el que viajan.

Por lo tanto, el índice de refracción se expresa como el seno del ángulo de incidencia dividido por el seno del ángulo de refracción.

El seno del ángulo de incidencia y la refracción utilizados en esta fórmula de índice de refracción se miden respectivamente con respecto a la vertical.

En esta pregunta Ángulo de incidencia = 35° a la horizontal = (90° - 35°) a la vertical = 55° a la vertical.

Ángulo de refracción = 35°

Índice de refracción entre los dos medios

= (Sin 55°) ÷ (Sin 35°)

= 0.8192 ÷ 0.5736

= 1.428 = 1.43 a 2 d.p.

¡¡¡Espero que esto ayude!!!

English Translation

The light passes from medium A to medium B at an angle of 35 ° with the horizontal border between the two. If the angle of refraction is also 35 °, what is the relative refractive index between the two media?

Solution

The refractive index between two media is best explained by first understanding refraction.

When waves move from one medium to another, they often experience a change in direction with respect to the medium in which they are travelling.

Hence, refractive index is expressed as the sine of angle of incidence dibided by the sine of angle of refraction.

The sine of angle of incidence and refraction used in this refractive index formula are both respectively measured with respect to the vertical.

In this question,

Angle of incidence = 35° to the horizontal = (90° - 35°) to the vertical = 55° to the vertical.

Angle of refraction = 35°

Refractive index between the two media

= (Sin 55°) ÷ (Sin 35°)

= 0.8192 ÷ 0.5736

= 1.428 = 1.43 to 2 d.p.

Hope this Helps!!!

Tex, an 85.0 kilogram rodeo bull rider is thrown from the bull after a short ride. The 520. kilogram bull chases after Tex at 13
Julli [10]
The question above can be answered through using the concept of Conservation of Momentum which may be expressed as,
                 m1v1 + m2v2 = mTvT
where m1 and v1 are mass and initial velocity of Tex, 2s are that of the bull, and the Ts are the total. Then substituting,
                    (85 kg)(3 m/s) + (520 kg)(13 m/s) = (520 + 85)(vT)
The value of vT obtained from above equation is 11.6 m/s
