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.

What is the difference between condensation and precipitation
Alexxandr [17]

Explanation:

The water cycle is based on three parts;

1. Evaporation

2. Condensation

3. Participation

Condensation:

It is the process in which water vapor changes into liquid water or in other words, it is the transition from the gaseous state to liquid state.

Precipitation:

It is the process in which any liquid or frozen water such as snow that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth

Condensation depends on temperature and pressure whereas precipitation depends on the temperature and the concentration of the solution.

Moving company uses a machine to raise a 900 Newton refrigerator to the second floor of a building machine consists of a single
Juliette [100K]
Mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the output force over the input force or M=Fo/Fi. Since M=1, Fi=Fo, or the input force is equal to the output force. This means that to raise the refrigerator that weighs 900 N, we need the same input force of 900 N, or Fo=Fi=900 N.

Justin Bieber is thrown horizontally at 10.0 m/s from the top of a cliff 122.5 m high.
sveticcg [70]

===>  Distance fallen from rest in free fall =

                                         (1/2) (acceleration) (time²)

                               (122.5 m) = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (time²)

Divide each side by (4.9 m/s²):   (122.5 m / 4.9 m/s²)  =  time²

                                                           (122.5/4.9) s²  =  time²

Take the square root of each side:    5.0 seconds


===> (Accelerating at 9.8 m/s², he will be dropping at
                               (9.8 m/s²) x (5.0 s) = 49 m/s
when he goes 'splat'.  We'll need this number for the last part.)


===> With no air resistance, the horizontal component of velocity
doesn't change.

Horizontal distance = (10 m/s) x (5.0 s)  =  50 meters .

===>  Impact velocity =  (10 m/s horizontally) + (49 m/s vertically)

                                 = √(10² + 49²)  =  50.01 m/s  arctan(10/49)

                                 =    50.01 m/s   at  11.5° from straight down,
                                                           
away from the base of the cliff.
