A rocket passing the earth with high speed will look shorter for the stationary observer measuring the size on earth than travel

er in rocket. O True O False
Physics
1 answer:
neonofarm [45]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This can be explained by the special theory of relativity for length contraction.

Length contraction is observed in the direction of motion of an object when an object moves with speed closer to the speed of light.

The length of the rocket in this case, appears shorter to the observer on earth in the stationary reference frame which is improper frame whereas the traveler in the rocket is in the same inertial frame which is proper for the rocket's size measurement.

Green light (λ = 518 nm) strikes a single slit at normal incidence. What width slit will produce a central maximum that is 3.00
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

6.9066 × 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

For constructive interference, the expression is:

d\times sin\theta=m\times \lambda

Where, m = 1, 2, .....

d is the distance between the slits.

The formula can be written as:

sin\theta=\frac {\lambda}{d}\times m ....1

The location of the bright fringe is determined by :

y=L\times tan\theta

Where, L is the distance between the slit and the screen.

For small angle , sin\theta=tan\theta

So,  

Formula becomes:

y=L\times sin\theta

Using 1, we get:

y=L\times \frac {\lambda}{d}\times m

Thus, the distance between the central maximum is 3.00 cm

First bright fringe , m = 1 occur at 3.00 / 2 = 1.50 cm

Since,

1 cm = 0.01 m

y = 0.0150 m

Given L = 2.00 m

λ = 518 nm

Since, 1 nm = 10⁻⁹ m

So,

λ = 518 × 10⁻⁹ m

Applying the formula as:

0.0150\ m=2.00\ m\times \frac {518\times 10^{-9}\ m}{d}\times 1

<u>⇒ d, distance between the slits = 6.9066 × 10⁻⁵ m</u>

Which structures main function is to produce food (sugar) in a plant
leva [86]
Technically speaking, there are many "levels" of a plant for which this may hold true. I think the one you are referring to is the chloroplast. It takes in the light energy from the sun, water and carbon dioxide, and performs photosynthesis on them to produce sugar and oxygen. A leaf would also fit the description as this is a very general question.
