Answer: B

Explanation:

When in orbit, a satellite is hold in position thanks to, between others, the earth's gravity. So the C option is discarded.

A projectile is an object thrown by the exertion of some force, like a bullet or a cannonball.

A satellite is placed in some orbit, so he can rotate the earth. The movement of the satellite is non-accelerated motion, because the only forces that act on the satellite are the forces that hold him in orbit.

                                        = 0.193 kg 
So
0.193 kg = 0.193 * 2.2 pounds

How fast must an object move before its length appears to be contracted to one-fourth its proper length? (Give your answer in te
Tresset [83]

Answer:

<em>0.97c</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

From the relativistic equation for length contraction, we have

l = l_{0}\sqrt{1 - \beta }

where

l is the final length of the object

l_{0} is the original length of the object before contraction

β = v^{2} /c^2

where v is the speed of the object

c is the speed of light in free space = 3 x 10^8 m/s

The equation can be re-written as

l/l_{0} = \sqrt{1 - \beta }

For the length to contract to one-fourth of the proper length, then

l/l_{0} = 1/4

substituting into the equation, we'll have

1/4 = \sqrt{1 - \beta }

substituting for β, we'll have

1/4 = \sqrt{1 - v^2/c^2 }

squaring both side of the equation, we'll have

1/16 = 1 - v^2/c^2

v^2/c^2 = 1 - 1/16

v^2/c^2 = 15/16

square root both sides of the equation, we have

v/c = 0.968

v = <em>0.97c</em>
