Problem 4: This is a very straightforward relative velocity problem, but let's make sure it gets...
A car travels East at a constant velocity of 83 km/hr relative to the ground. A truck travels West at a constant velocity of 51 km/hr relative to the ground. What is the velocity of the truck relative to the car (enter the magnitude and direction separately)? Before you do any calculations, make sure that you draw a diagram that shows reference frames S and S'. Also, make sure that you label the velocities u, u', and v in your...
I have no idea how to get the answer to Practice Problem 11.
Apparently its suppose to be: (150 m, 213.6 degrees)
Also I can get the Newtons for Practice problem 14, but I can't
quite figure out how to get the degrees for theta. Apparent answers
are: (1684 N, 169 degrees), (1684 N, 348 degrees).

The only force F~ acting on a body of mass m (in kg) changes in time t according to F~ (t) = (F0 sin(ωt), F0 cos(ωt)) where F0 is a constant with units of N and the greek letter ω is a constant with units of radians/s. (Technically a radian is dimensionless, but I’ve explicitly stated it to clarify the problem.) Assume all arbitrary constants that appear due to indefinite integration are zero. (a) What is the acceleration vector of...

the Lorentz time Problem 4 Starting for the Lorentz coordinate transformation, derive and velocity transformations. Show your steps and define your reference frames Problem 5 Two particles are created at CERN's accelerator and move off in opposite directions. The speed of particle A is measured in the laboratory, as 0.65c, and the speed of each particle relative to the other is 0.95c. What is the speed of particles B, as measured in the laboratory? Problem 6 A spacecraft...
A model airplane competition has the following rules: Each plane must fly to a point 1 km from the start and then back again. The point km winner is the plane with the shortest round-trip time. The contestants are free to launch their planes in any direction, so long as the plane travels exactly 1 km out and then returns. On the day of the race, a steady wind blows from the north at 8.5 m/s. Your plane can maintain...
