Gravity is what holds the planets in orbit around the sun and what keeps the moon in orbit around Earth. The gravitational pull of the moon pulls the seas towards it, causing the ocean tides. Gravity creates stars and planets by pulling together the material from which they are made.
Answer:
a) 3673469.39 seconds
b) 6.61×10¹⁴ m
Explanation:
t = Time taken
u = Initial velocity
v = Final velocity = 0.12×3×10⁸ m/s
s = Displacement
a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
Equation of motion
Time taken to reach 12% of light speed is 3673469.39 seconds
The distance it would have to travel is 6.61×10¹⁴ m
Answer:
The coefficient of kinetic friction
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The length of the lane is
The speed of the truck is
Generally from the work-energy theorem we have that
Here N is the normal force acting on the truck which is mathematically represented as
is the change in kinetic energy which is mathematically represented as

1) In the first case, the correct answer is
<span>A.Wavelengths measured would match the actual wavelengths emitted.
In fact, the stars are not moving relative to Earth, so there is no shift in the measured wavelength.
2) In this second case, the correct answer is
</span><span>A.Wavelengths measured would be shorter than the actual wavelengths emitted.
</span>in fact, since the stars in this case are moving towards the Earth, then apparent frequency of their emitted light will be larger than the actual frequency, because of the Doppler effect, according to the formula:
where f0 is the actual frequency, f' the apparent frequency, c the speed of light and vs the velocity of the source (the stars) relative to the obsever (Earth). Vs is negative when the source is moving towards the observer, so the apparent frequency f' is larger than the actual frequency f0. But the wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency, so the apparent wavelength will be shorter than the actual wavelength.
