- A UFO is observed directly above the earth moving at a constant velocity. An astronaut on the moon (3.8 x 108m from earth) observes the UFO passing overhead 5.8 s later. From the UFO's reference frame, how long did it take to travel from the earth to the moon?A rocket is moving in a gravity free space with a constant acceleration of 2ms² along +x direction (see figure). The length of a chamber inside the rocket is 4m. A ball is thrown from the left end of the chamber in +x direction with a speed of 0.3ms-1 relative to the rocket. At the same time, another ball is thrown in –x direction withaspeed of 0.2ms-1 from its right end relative to the rocket. The time in seconds when the two balls hit each other is: = 2 ms 2 -1 0.3 ms 0.2 ms- X 4 mSituation 1: Two automobiles A and B are approaching each other in adjacent highway lanes. At t = 0 seconds, A and B are 1 km apart, their speeds are VA = 110 kph and Ve = 60 kph and they are at points P and Q respectively. Knowing that A passes point Q. 40 seconds after B was there and that B passes point P, 42 seconds after A was there. Question 6 Question 7 Question 8 Determine the time when they pass each other. Determine the speed of B when they pass each other. Determine the acceleration of A.

- an asteroid with a mass of 8.2x10^11 kg is observed to have a relativistic momentum of the magnitude of 7.74x10^20 Kg*m/s . What is the speed of the asteroid relative to the observer?Two electrons are brought close together, to a distance of 75 pm apart. They are then both released from rest, accelerating and travelling away from one another. When the two particles are very far apart, how fast will they be going, in m/s?3. A simple pendulum consists of a pendulum bob of mass M at the end of a "mass-less" string of length L. The pendulum bob oscillates back and forth and is moving at speed v when the string is oriented at a constant angle 0 from vertical. Give answers in terms of L, 0, v, M and/or g. This is similar to the vertical circle from the Circular Motion Experiment worksheet except that we are not going in a full circle. a. Draw the free body diagram of forces acting on the pendulum bob. Include a coordinate system on your diagram showing your choice for the +x and +y directions. b. Write out Newton's 2nd law EF = mã for each direction. X: y: c. What is the tangential acceleration of the pendulum bob? d. Determine the tension of the string. e. What is the magnitude of the total acceleration of the pendulum bob?

What is the particle's momentum in mc units? √3 mc 715 mc 3 mcStarship "A" is traveling at 0.8c with respect to the identical starship "B". Each starship has rest length 10000 m. The ship's engineer aboard the "B" ship measures the length of the "A" ship as it passes by his window. What result should he get? 12500 m 15000 m 8000 m None of the answers 6000 mThe kinetic energy of a mass moving in the x-y plane is: T = mx² + my² Using the transformation = rcos (0) and y = rsin (0), derive a general expression for kinetic energy of the mass in the r, basis.
- A clock is moving at v =(4/5)c. c is the speed of light. The clock passes our clock when both clocks read t = 0. When the moving clock reads t = 30 s, what will the clocks in our frame read?It was found out that on a certain exo planet in Andromeda galaxy, the gravitational acceleration is 19.6 m/s2, and it varies as a function of elevation above the surface given by the expression g=c−bz−az2,wherec= 19.6 m/s2,b= 5.0×10−5s−2, and a= 1.0×10−2m−1s−2.Determine the height above the exo planet’s ground level where the weight of an object will decrease by 1.2 percentA pirate starship in the distant future is being chased by the space police. The pirates are traveling at 1273 km/h while the police are traveling at 1431 km/h. The pirate ship needs 25 minutes to turn on its faster-than-light drive so it can jump into hyperspace to escape. How long, in minutes, will it take the space police to catch up to the pirates if they are 50 km away from one another? min Will the pirates be able to escape?
