Suppose you are in a spaceship traveling at 99% of the speed of light past a long, narrow space station. Your direction of trave

l is parallel to the length of the station. If you measure lengths of objects on the station and also how time is passing on the station, what results will you get?
A) Lengths will appear shorter and time will appear to pass slower.
B) Lengths will appear shorter and time will appear to pass faster.
C) Lengths will appear shorter and time will appear to pass faster.

Answer:

A. Lengths will appear shorter and time will appear to pass slower.  

Explanation:

From theory of relativity, we know that:

L₀ = length of object, measured in stationary frame of reference

L = length of object measured from a frame moving with respect to object, called ‘relativistic length’

v = relativistic speed between observer and the object

c = speed of light

then,

L = L₀ √(1-v²/c² )

Hence, the length of the object decreases with the increase in its relativistic speed "v"

t₀ = time measured by clock at rest with respect to event.

t = time measured by clock in motion relative to the event

v = relativistic speed between observer and the object

c = speed of light

then,

t =  t₀/√(1-v²/c² )

Hence, the time increases with the increase in in relativistic speed and as a result it appears to pass slower.

Hence, the correct option is:

<u>A. Lengths will appear shorter and time will appear to pass slower.</u>

in a certain experiment, a radio transmitter emits sinusoidal electromagnetic waves of frequency 105.0 mhz in opposite direction
Romashka [77]

As a result, the hollow is 10.90 meters long and the distance between the nodal planes is 1.36 meters.

<h3>Explain electromagnetic waves.</h3>

The oscillations between an electric field and a magnetic field produce waves known as electromagnetic waves, or EM waves.

By definition, we understand that the frequency equals,

f = c/λ

where,

λ = wavelength

c= Speed of light

λ = 2L / n

While the wavelength is equal to,

Where,

L = Length

n = Number of antinodes/nodes

PART A) We know that the first component's wavelength is 110 MHz, so

λ = c/ f

λ = 3*10^8 / 11*10^6

λ = 1.36m

Therefore the distance between the nodal planes is 1.36m

PART B) For this part we need to find the Length through the number of nodes (8) and the wavelength, that is,

λ` = 2l /n

L = 8*2.72/ 2

L = 10.90m

Therefore the length of the cavity is 10.90m.

Se lanza verticalmente una esfera con una rapidez de 30m/se. Determinar la rapidez de la esfera a una altura de 40m (g=10m/s2)
sergeinik [125]

v^2-{v_0}^2=2a(x-x_0)

dónde v es la velocidad de la esfera, v_0 es suya velocidad inicial, a=-g la aceleración debida a la gravedad, x la posición, y x_0 la posición inicial. Tomamos x_0=0\,\mathrm m a referirse a la posición de la esfera en el momento que la esfera fue lanzada.

Entonces

v^2-\left(30\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2=2\left(-10\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(40\,\mathrm m)

\implies v^2=100\,\dfrac{\mathrm m^2}{\mathrm s^2}\implies v=\pm10\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}

Esto nos dice que la esfera alcanza una altura de 40 m en dos momentos - una vez hacia arriba y una vez hacia abajo. Sin embargo, independientemente del signo de la velocidad, sabemos que suya magnitud es 10 m/s, y así tenemos una rapidez de 10 m/s también en ambos momentos.
