Answer:

When water freezes, it's volume INcreases, which naturally results in a DEcrease in it's density. That's why cubes and bergs float.

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure that water is the only known substance that behaves this way. Which is lucky for us, because if it didn't, then life on Earth would be impossible. Oceans and lakes would freeze from the bottom up. Once! And then they would never thaw, because the sun could never cut through the layer of warm water on top, to melt the ice below.

A heavy meterstick has a mass of 1 kg. When the meterstick is thrown like a spear past you, you measure its momentum to be 2mv.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Its length is measured to be 0.5 m

Explanation:

From theory of relativity (mass variation), we know that:

m = mo/√(1-v²/c²)

Where, m = relative mass

and, mo = rest mass

The momentum of stick while moving, will be:

P = mv

but, it is given in the form of rest mass as:

P = 2(mo)v

thus, by comparison;

2(mo)v = mv

using value of m from theory of relativity;

2(mo)v = (mo)v/√(1-v²/c²)

√(1-v²/c²) = 1/2     ______ eqn(1)

Now, for relativistic length (L), we have the formula from same theory of relativity;

L = (Lo)√(1-v²/c²)

The rest length (Lo) of meter stick is 1 m, and the remaining term on right side √(1-v²/c²), known as Lorentz Factor, can be given by eqn (1), as equal to 1/2.

Thus,

L = (1 m)(1/2)

<u>L = 0.5 m</u>
