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.

A block of mass 0.221 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 5365 N/m and pushed downward so that the
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 0.221 kg

Spring constant k = 5365 N/m

Distance x = 0.097 m

We need to calculate the height

Using stored energy in spring

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2...(I)

Using gravitational potential energy

U' =mgh....(II)

Using energy of conservation

E_{i}=E_{f}

U_{i}+U'_{i}=U_{f}+U'_{f}

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2+0=0+mgh

h=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mg}

Where, k = spring constant

m = mass of the block

x = distance

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value in the equation

h=\dfrac{5365\times(0.097)^2}{2\times0.221\times9.8}

h=11.653\ m

Hence, The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.

Describe how freezing could be used to remove sugar from a mixture of sugar and water?
VARVARA [1.3K]
When the mixture (the sugar and water) is frozen, it separates. The water molecules get closer together, separating and pushing the sugar crystals to the top.<span />
