Answer:
Explanation:
Velocity of the ship is given as
the direction of the velocity of the ship is making an angle of 11 degree with the current
so we will have two components of the velocity
1) along the direction of the current
2) perpendicular to the direction of the current
so here we know that the component of the ship velocity along the direction of the current is given as
This can be seen through the fact that Aksionov has the ability to seek his own justice many times throughout the story, yet does not take it
Answer:
e) indicated that the speed of light is the same in all inertial reference frames.
Explanation:
In 18th century, many scientists believed that the light just like air and water needs a medium to travel. They called this medium <em>aether</em>. They believed that even the space is not empty and filled with aether.
Michelson and Morley tried to prove the presence and speed of this aether through an interference experiment in 1887. They made an interferometer in which light was emitted at various angles with respect to the supposed aether. Both along the flow and against the flow to see the difference in the speed of light. But they did not find no major difference and thus it became the first proof to disprove the theory of aether.
It thus proved that the speed of light remains same in all inertial frames.
Also, it became a base for the special theory of relativity by Einstein.
