A spacecraft travels fast the earth has a greater velocity (ⱱ) which approximates the speed of light. The time (to) measured in the spacecraft is different from the time (t) measured on earth.

In two dimensions analyzing linear and angular momentum provides up to three scalar equations. c. Linear acceleration and angular acceleration both have units of ft/s^2 or m/s^2 d. When absolute motion or a rigid body it is important to find a function that relates linear and angular position then integrate to find velocity e. Instantaneous centers can only be determined for velocity and only for a snapshot in timearrow_forwardAs4. This is my third time asking this question. Please DO NOT copy and paste someone else's work or some random notes. I need an answer to this question. There is a mass attached to a spring which is fixed against a wall. The spring is compressed and then released. Friction and is neglected. The velocity and displacement of the mass need to be modeled with an equation or set of equations so that various masses and spring constants can be input into Matlab and their motion can be observed. Motion after being released is only important, the spring being compressed is not important. This could be solved with dynamics, Matlab, there are multiple approaches.arrow_forward

Its temperature is initially 248 degrees Celsius. The room temp is 20 degrees Celsius. After 30 seconds, the temperature of the pie is 200 degrees Celsius. What is the value of -k? How long will the pie be safe enough to eat at 35.5 degrees Celsius?arrow_forwardLearning Goal: To use equilibrium to calculate the plane state of stress in a rotated coordinate system. In general, the three-dimensional state of stress at a point requires six stress components to be fully described: three normal stresses and three shear stresses (Figure 1). When the external loadings are coplanar, however, the resulting internal stresses can be treated as plane stress and described using a simpler, two-dimensional analysis with just two normal stresses and one shear stress (Figure 2). The third normal stress and two other shear stresses are assumed to be zero. The normal and shear stresses for a state of stress depend on the orientation of the axes. If the stresses are given in one coordinate system (Figure 3), the equivalent stresses in a rotated coordinate system (Figure 4) can be calculated using the equations of static equilibrium. Both sets of stresses describe the same state of stress. The stresses σx′and τx′y′ can be found by considering the free-body…arrow_forward
