how about two or three baskets one on top of the other? As soon as it goes through one, it may have slowed down enough to not go through the other?
Also, for the physics of it, force is change of momentum over time (impulse). In this case, you want the lowest force possible on the egg and...
well i was just saying if you put in an arbitrary distances x_1 and x_2, you should get such a formula for the time difference:
t2' - t_1' = -\gamma \frac{(x_1-x_2) v}{c^2}
When x_1 approaches x_2, the time difference become zero, which makes sense because two events happening at the same point...
First of all, those problems are not related to each other, they're separate questions, I think you're mixing them up and confusing stuff together.
Problem 1 is a very simple idea. Remember, the molecular weight is grams/mole. If the molecular weight of Phosphorus is 30.974 grams of Phosphorus...
This is a chemistry question, but anyway, if you look up on your periodic table, there is a number called the "molecular weight". For phosphorus, you should find its molecular weight is 30.974 grams/mol.
You should be able to figure out what to do from there.
Now, if you remember what a mole...
Sorry, thanks for messaging me again because I completely forgot about your reply!
No, for gamma, there is a problem (it is not -1/2 it is to the power of -1/2):
\gamma = \sqrt{\frac{1}{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}
So if the relative velocity v is 0.8c then gamma should be:
\gamma = \sqrt{\frac{1}{1-...
Okay, I see now. So I think you are missing an equation. You would need the lorentz transform for t' as well. Here are the Lorentz transforms for a frame S' moving with relative speed v in the positive x direction:
t' = \gamma (t - \frac{v x}{c^2})
x' = \gamma (x - vt)
y' = y
z' = z
How...
Thanks for saying that, but now I'm a little confused... The number seems to approach zero when you go to infinity (although the sum of the sequence clearly doesn't). Why is it said that it does not approach zero? What criterion says so?
Sorry for using this post for my question. Is there a...
Woops! You're definitely right!
Yes, a sequence has to converge to a number. (I was trying to remember what people defined sequences as)
Anyway, let me rephrase my last question:
If a sequence does eventually converge to a value, what is the relation between the differences of adjacent sequence...
Well, first of all, keep in mind that a sequence keeps order, unlike a set. A set is like a bag you just throw numbers in and a sequence is like a pile where you stack numbers on, stacking it differently makes it a different sequence.
Typically, Mathematicians use parentheses() for sequences...
Just to help a little more, for example, you can set the time the events happened in S to be 0 (or it could be any other number).
So, if I choose the events to happen at t = 0 for S, the events coordinates in S are:
(50, 0, 0, 0) and (150, 0, 0, 0)
What do you mean by they both start at (0,0,0)? Remember, in relativity, it is not enough to specify the spatial coordinates. You also need to specify a time.
i.e. At what point in spacetime do the two frames S and S' coincide? (You can choose any point)
From there, at what time coordinate in...
I don't know what you did but the assumption that i2 = i3 may not be correct.
I would do the loop rules first (the Vb -Va part you wrote) then at the last moment do a substitution i3 = i1 - i2 (assuming the same directions you chose for your current)
you should then end up with two...
When the particle moves from the top to the spring, it loses potential energy. However, when it loses this energy, the energy must go somewhere. In this problem, they want to know the point of highest compression in the spring. What is the change kinetic energy of the mass at this point? What is...
