When observed from the sun at a particular instant, Earth and Mars appear to move in opposite directions with speeds 108,000 km/h and 86,871 km/h, respectively. What is the speed of Mars at this instant when observed from Earth?
While a meter is the fundamental unit of length, most distances traveled by humans are measured in miles or kilometers. Why do you think this is?
A pirate has buried his treasure on an island with five trees located at the points (30.0 m, 20.0 m), (60.0 m, 80.0 m), (10.0 m, 10.0 m), (40.0 m, 30.0 m), and (70.0 m, 60.0 m), all measured relative to some origin, as shown in Figure P1.69. His ships log instructs you to start at tree A and move toward tree B, but to cover only one-half the distance between A and B. Then move toward tree C, covering one-third the distance between your current location and C. Next move toward tree D, covering one-fourth the distance between where you are and D. Finally move toward tree E, covering one-fifth the distance between you and E, stop, and dig. (a) Assume you have correctly determined the order in which the pirate labeled the trees as A, B, C, D, and E as shown in the figure. What are the coordinates of the point where his treasure is buried? (b) What If? What if you do not really know the way the pirate labeled the trees? What would happen to the answer if you rearranged the order of the trees, for instance, to B (30 m, 20 m), A (60 m, 80 m), E (10 m, 10 m), C (40 m, 30 m), and D (70 m, 60 m)? State reasoning to show that the answer does not depend on the order in which the trees are labeled. Figure 1.69
A pirate has buried his treasure on an island with five trees located at the points (30.0m,220.0m),(60.0m,80.0m),(210.0m,210.0m),(40.0m,230.0m), and (270.0m,60.0m), all measured relative to some origin, as shown in above figure.

Is there any simpler solution to this? Without having to calculate so many variables?
Hi, please show full solutions and also explain how you get the answers in physics terms so it's understandable. The correct final answers are written beside too. This is one whole question to be answered, please. I can't post it separately since it's related. Thank you.
According to the Theory of Relativity, the length of an object depends on its velocity v with respect to an observer. For an object whose length at rest is 10 m, its observed length L satisfies the equation c2L2 + 100v2 = 100c2 where c is 300,000 km/s, the speed of light. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) Express L as a function of v and c.L = 10√(c+v)(c−v)c (b) What is the observed length L of a meteor that is 10 m long at rest and that is traveling past the earth at 20,000 km/s?(c) What is the observed length L of a satellite that is 10 m long at rest and that is traveling at 15,000 km/s?(d) What is the net change in the observed length L of an object whose velocity changes from 15,000 km/s to 20,000 km/s?
(the complete question is in the picture) If the Newtonian constant has units G = [N · m2/kg2], the speed of light has units c = [m/s], the mass has units M = [kg] and the SI unit newtons is equivalentto N = [kg · m/s2], what are the units of the relation GM/c3?A. [kg · s]B. [kg · m2/s]C. [m2/s]D. [s]
Can i have the answers to this tables and can you please provide the solution thank you so much!
What is the speed of a car going v=1.000mphv=1.000mph in SI units? Notice that you will need to change from miles to meters and from hours to seconds. You can do each conversion separately. Use the facts that 1mile=1609m1mile=1609m and 1hour=3600s1hour=3600s.
In SI units, speeds are measured in meters per second (m/s). But, depending on where you live, you’re probably more comfortable of thinking of speeds in terms of either kilometers per hour (km/h) or miles per hour (mi/h). In this problem, you will see that 1 m/s is roughly 4 km/h or 2 mi/h, which is handy to use when developing your physical intuition. More precisely, show that (a) 1.0 m/s = 3.6 km/h and (b) 1.0 m/s = 2.2 mi/h.
