System Sʹ Has a Velocity U = +0

question 49

Multiple Choice

System Sʹ has a velocity u = +0.56c relative to system S, as shown in the figure. The clocks of S and Sʹ are synchronized at t = tʹ = 0 when the origins O and Oʹ coincide. An event is observed in both systems. The event takes place at x = 800 m and at time t = 3.0 μs as measured by an observer in S. What is the time tʹ of the event, measured by an observer in Sʹ?

• A) 1.8 μs
• B) -4.9 μs
• C) 1.7 μs
• D) 1.3 μs
• E) 1.5 μs

Definitions:

Inductive Reactance

The opposition an inductor provides to alternating current, directly proportional to the frequency of the current.

Pure Inductive

Refers to a circuit element or circuit that purely has inductance without any resistance, ideally opposing changes in current by generating a magnetic field.

Current

The rate of flow of electrons.

Coil

A component that produces a magnetic field when electric current flows through it.
