Answer:
a. speed, v = 0.97 c
b. time, t' = 20.56 years
Given:
t' = 5 years
distance of the planet from the earth, d = 10 light years = 10 c
Solution:
(a) Distance travelled in a round trip, d' = 2d = 20 c = L'
Now, using Length contraction formula of relativity theory:
(1)
time taken = 5 years
We know that :
time =
5 = (2)
Dividing eqn (1) by v on both the sides and substituting eqn (2) in eqn (1):
Squaring both the sides and Solving above eqution, we get:
v = 0.97 c
(b) Time observed from Earth:
Using time dilation:
Solving the above eqn:
t'' = 20.56 years
The answer is "False". The force acting on the object is 27 N.
According to Newton's second law, when a force <em>F</em> acts on am object of mass <em>m</em>, it produces an acceleration <em>a</em>. The force is given by the expression,
Thus, if the body has a mass of 9.0 kg and if it has an acceleration of 3 m/s², then, on substituting the values in the equation for force,
Thus, it can be seen that the force acting on the body is 27 N and not 3 N as is mentioned in the statement. Hence the statement is false.
