A) Suppose for this problem that c= 62.2 m/s. A fire engine drives by you and you measure its length to be 11.3 m. While parked at the fire station, its length is known to be 13.5 m. How fast is the truck moving?

xC

B) A spaceship approaches the planet Mars and launches a landing vehicle toward the planet. An observer on Mars measures the speed of the spaceship to be 0.262c. An observer on the landing vehicle measures the speed of the spaceship to be 0.557c (from this observer's perspective, the spaceship appears to be moving away from Mars). What is the speed of the landing vehicle measured by an observer on Mars?

xC

Expert Solution

A)

According to Lorentz contraction formula

B)This part will utilise Einstein's velocity addition relationship.

Consider 3 elements. A stationary observed at the surface of Mars 'A'. Moving observer on the spaceship as 'B' and the projectile fired by B as 'C'.

Let, u = velocity of projectile as seen by A

v = velocity of the moving observer 'B' as seen by A = 0.262c

u' = velocity of projectile 'C' as seen by B = 0.557c

A sees B moving with velocity v, then velocity measured by B(u') as seen by A is:

The siren of a fire engine that is driving northward at 40.0 m/s emits a sound of frequency 2180 Hz . A truck in front of this fire engine is moving northward at 17.0 m/s .What is the frequency of the siren's sound that the fire engine's driver hears reflected from the back of the truck?What wavelength would this driver measure for these reflected sound waves?

you are standing by the side of the road as a fire engine approaches you. because of the doppler shift, you hear the engines siren at a higher frequency than it was emitted at. how would your sensation of the pitch of the sirens sound change if you ran toward the moving engine? how would your sensation of the pitch of the sirens sound change if you instead ran with the same velocity as the engine?

1. A fire engine develops a head of 35 m, i.e., it increases the energy per unit weight of the water passing through it by 35 m. The pump draws water from a sump at A through a 125 mm diameter pipe in which there is a loss of energy per unit weight due to friction h1 = 6V1 2 /2g varying with the mean velocity V1 in the pipe, and discharges it through a 75 mm nozzle at C,...

A car travelling at 3.0 m/s drives into an empty parking space. At the same instant, a truck that has an inertia 50% greater than the car’s is using the same parking space to take a shortcut through the parking lot. Both vehicles are coasting (zero acceleration conveniently), and just before they hit head-on, the truck is moving at 4.0 m/s. During the collision 75% of the initial KE of the car-truck system is converted to internal energy. There are...

A motorist drives south at 26.0 m/s for 3.00 min, then turns west and travels at 25.0 m/s for 2.00 min, and finally travels northwest at 30.0 m/s for 1.00 min. For this 6.00 min trip, find the following values. (a) total vector displacement _____m (magnitude) ___° south of west (b) average speed ____m/s (c) average velocity ____m/s (magnitude) _____° south of west

A 2000-kg car is traveling at 20 m/s on a horizontal road and the engine suddenly is broken down. The brakes immediately are applied and the car skids to a stop in 4.0 s with a constant acceleration because of kinetic friction. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires and road?
