Answer:
Explanation:
a. The equation of Lorentz transformations is given by:
x = γ(x' + ut')
x' and t' are the position and time in the moving system of reference, and u is the speed of the space ship. x is related to the observer reference.
x' = 0
t' = 5.00 s
u =0.800 c,
c is the speed of light = 3×10⁸ m/s
Then,
γ = 1 / √ (1 - (u/c)²)
γ = 1 / √ (1 - (0.8c/c)²)
γ = 1 / √ (1 - (0.8)²)
γ = 1 / √ (1 - 0.64)
γ = 1 / √0.36
γ = 1 / 0.6
γ = 1.67
Therefore, x = γ(x' + ut')
x = 1.67(0 + 0.8c×5)
x = 1.67 × (0+4c)
x = 1.67 × 4c
x = 1.67 × 4 × 3×10⁸
x = 2.004 × 10^9 m
x ≈ 2 × 10^9 m
Now, to find t we apply the same analysis:
but as x'=0 we just have:
t = γ(t' + ux'/c²)
t = γ•t'
t = 1.67 × 5
t = 8.35 seconds
b. Mavis reads 5 s on her watch which is the proper time.
Stanley measured the events at a time interval longer than ∆to by γ,
such that
∆t = γ ∆to = (5/3)(5) = 25/3 = 8.3 sec which is the same as part (b)
c. According to Stanley,
dist = u ∆t = 0.8c (8.3) = 2 x 10^9 m
which is the same as in part (a)

Answer:
The magnitude of the change in momentum of the stone is 5.51kg*m/s.
Explanation:
the final kinetic energy = 1/2(0.15)v^2
1/2(0.15)v^2 = 70%*1/2(0.15)(20)^2
v^2 = 21/0.075
v^2 = 280
v = 16.73 m.s
if u is the initial speed and v is the final speed, then:
u = 20 m/s and v = - 16.73m/s
change in momentum = m(v-u)
= 0.15(- 16.73-20)
= -5.51 kg*m.s
Therefore, The magnitude of the change in momentum of the stone is 5.51kg*m/s.
