Which of the following statements is most closely associated with Einstein's general theory of relativity?

2 answers:

The answer is the first one. That's because the general theory of relativity is the thing experiencing whatever is experiencing relative to something else. The second answer is just plain wrong. The third answer is just a constant, and doesn't relate to experiencing anything. And the fourth answer is a force between two objects, and it has no second comparison. The first answer is how a subject experiences two different things.

Answer:

Being in an accelerated frame is indistinguishable from experiencing gravity.

Explanation:

The general theory of relativity is the geometric theory of gravitation that describes it in modern physics. It generalizes the gravity as a geometric property of the space and time, or spacetime.

One of the principles of this theory is the equivalence principle, which states that the gravitational force experienced at a stade mode have no difference of the pseudo-gravity experienced in an accelerated frame, if the referential is a massive body, such as Earth.

Mass is not equivalent to weight, because weight is a force, which is the mass multiplied by the gravity acceleration; the other two statements come from Newton's gravitational theory.

Jada is rowing a boat across a river that has a current of 5 m/s in the ˆ j direction. Leanne, standing on the shore, observes J

olchik [2.2K]

Answer: d. 8.25 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that Current= 5 m/s in j direction

Velocity= 8 m/s i + 3 m/s j

Now, we have to find Jada's speed with respect to the water.

First we find Jada's velocity with respect to water

v= (8 i + 3 j) - (5 j)

v= 8i - 2 j

To find the speed, we take the magnitude of this velocity vector we have

|v|= $\sqrt{(8)^2+(-2)^2}$

|v|= $\sqrt{68}$ = 8.246 m/s

which comes out to be around = 8.25 m/s

So option d is correct.

The remains of Mesosaurus- a crocodile-like reptilian tells United States that South America, Africa and Antarctica were once joined along which implies they were once an enormous continent. However, because of the idea called the geological phenomenon, this one massive continent began to break so making individual continents.

Here in this type of question we can use momentum conservation

It is because we can see there is no external force on the system

So we can use momentum conservation principle

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}$
