Chapter S2, Problem 45EAP
Relative Motion Practice II. In all the following, assume that you and your friends are in free-float reference frames.
- Carol is going away from you at 75 km/hr, and Sam is going away from you in the opposite direction at 90 km/hr. According to Carol, how fast is Sam going?
- Consider again the situation in part a. Suppose you throw a baseball in Sam’s direction at a speed of 120 km/hr. What does Sam see the ball doing? What does Carol see the ball doing?
- Cameron is traveling toward you at 99.9999% of the
speed of light when he turns on a flashlight and points it in your direction. How fast will the beam of light be going when it reaches you?

- question about how the author got the equation in the red box from, as it makes no sensearrow_forwardNo Chatgpt please will upvote harrow_forwardHelicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a helically-shaped bacterium that is usually found in the stomach. It burrows through the gastric mucous lining to establish an infection in the stomach's epithelial cells (see photo). Approximately 90% of the people infected with H. pylori will never experience symptoms. Others may develop peptic ulcers and show symptoms of chronic gastritis. The method of motility of H. pylori is a prokaryotic flagellum attached to the back of the bacterium that rigidly rotates like a propeller on a ship. The flagellum is composed of proteins and is approximately 40.0 nm in diameter and can reach rotation speeds as high as 1.50 x 103 rpm. If the speed of the bacterium is 10.0 μm/s, how far has it moved in the time it takes the flagellum to rotate through an angular displacement of 5.00 * 10² rad?
