The correct option is <u>D</u>.

Qualitative observations are observations that are made using our senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and feel. These observations do not involve numbers or measurements of any kind.

The student's observations regarding the squirrel as is mentioned in options A, B and C involve measurements. Therefore these are not qualitative observations.

Option D, however, is made on the basis of sight, where the student observes the squirrel moving in a zigzag manner.

Therefore, of all the three observations, the student's observation that the squirrel ran in a zigzag pattern is the qualitative observation.

A) A spaceship passes you at a speed of 0.800c. You measure its length to be 31.2 m .How long would it be when at rest?

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a

$l_o =52 \ m$

b

$l = 37.13 \ LY$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed of the spaceship is $v = 0.800c$

Here c is the speed of light with value $c = 3.0*10^{8} \ m/s$

The length is $l = 31.2 \ m$

The distance of the star for earth is $d = 145 \ light \ years$

The speed is $v_s = 2.90 *10^{8}$

Generally the from the length contraction equation we have that

$l = l_o \sqrt{1 -[\frac{v}{c } ]}$

Now the when at rest the length is $l_o$

So

$l_o =\frac{l}{\sqrt{ 1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2 } } }$

$l_o =\frac{ 31.2 }{ \sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.800c ) ^2}{c^2} } }$

$l_o=52 \ m$

Considering b

Applying above equation

$l =l_o \sqrt{1 - [\frac{v}{c } ]}$

Here $l_o =145 \ LY(light \ years )$

So

$l=145 * \sqrt{1 - \frac{v_s^2}{c^2 } }$

$l =145 * \sqrt{ 1 - \frac{2.9 *10^{8}}{3.0*10^{8}} }$

$l = 37.13 \ LY$
