Chapter S3, Problem 52EAP
Worldlines at High Speed. Make a spacetime diagram on which the time axis is marked in seconds and the space axis is marked in light-seconds. Assume you are floating weightlessly and therefore consider yourself at rest.
- Draw your own worldline.
- Draw a worldline for Sebastian, who is moving to your right at 0.5c.
- Draw a worldline for Michaela, who is moving to your left at 0.7c.
- Draw a worldline for Angela, who is traveling away from you at a speed of 100,000 km/s.

A shot putter releases a shot at 13 m/s at an angle of 42 degrees to the horizontal and from a height of 1.83 m above the ground. Calculate. Note: For each question draw a diagram to show the vector/s. Show all the steps and provide units in the answers. Provide answer to 2 decimal places unless stated otherwise. Answer all parts and show all work please.
A player kicks a football at the start of the game. After a 4 second flight, the ball touches the ground 50 m from the kicking tee. Assume air resistance is negligible and the take-off and landing height are the same (i.e., time to peak = time to fall = ½ total flight time). Calculate: Note: For each question draw a diagram to show the vector/s. Show all the step and provide units in the answers. Provide answer to 2 decimal places unless stated otherwise.)

After a gust of wind, an orb weaver spider with a mass of 35 g, hanging on a strand of web of length L = .420 m, undergoes simple harmonic motion (SHO) with an amplitude A and period T. If the spider climbs 12.0 cm up the web without perturbing the oscillation otherwise, what is the period of oscillation, in Hz to three significant figures?arrow_forward15. An object of mass m = 8.10 kg is attached to an ideal spring and allowed to hang in the earth's gravitational field. The spring stretches 23.10 cm before it reaches its equilibrium position. The mass then undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 10.5 cm. Calculate the velocity of the mass in m/s at a time t= 1.00s to three significant figures.arrow_forward
- please solve and answer the question correctly. Thank you!!arrow_forward18arrow_forward1. Some 1800 years ago Roman soldiers effectively used slings as deadly weapons. The length of these slings averaged about 81 cm and the lead shot that they used weighed about 30 grams. If in the wind up to a release, the shot rotated around the Roman slinger with a period of .14 seconds. Find the maximum acceleration of the shot before being released in m/s^2 and report it to two significant figures.arrow_forward

The balls are in equilibrium at a distance d= 2.0 cm apart. If the charge on one ball is tripled, find the new equilibrium distance between the balls in cm and report it to the proper number of significant figures.arrow_forward12. The electric field at a point 1.3 cm from a small object points toward the object with a strength of 180,000 N/C.
