What is the dissimilarity in the elapsed time son two clocks

Reference no: EM13668306

A spacecraft flies away from the earth with a speed of 4.90×10⁶ {\rm m/s} relative to the earth and then returns at the same speed. The spacecraft carries an atomic clock that has been carefully synchronized by an identical clock that remains at rest on earth. The spacecraft returns to its starting point 365 days (1 year) later, as gauged by the clock that remained on earth.

What is the dissimilarity in the elapsed time son the two clocks, measured in hours?

Effective force constant k of the group of the bungee cords : A pot containing a plant, weighing 10 N is hung from ceiling with a group of bungee cords. If pulled down and released, the pot oscillates vertically by period T= 5s. What is the effective force constant k (in N/m) of the group of the bungee cords?

Distant moon imaginarius has half the diameter of the earth : The distant moon imaginarius has half the diameter of the earth. The free-fall acceleration on the imaginarius is a= 4 m/s^2. What is the ratio of the average mass density of imaginarius to that of earth, Q= p (imaginarius) / p (earth)?

Radar is to coat the plane by an antireflective polymer : A possible means for making an airplane invisible to radar is to coat the plane by an antireflective polymer. If radar waves have a wavelength of 3.10 cm and the index of refraction of the polymer is n = 1.70, how thick would you make the coating? (S..

Oscillation amplitude drops to half of its initial value : A car and its suspension system act like a mass-spring system with m= 1200kg and k= 58 kN/m. Its worn-out shock absorbers provide a damping constant b= 230 kg/s. The car hits a pothole that sets it oscillating. How many oscillations will it make befo..
