Answer:

the mass of the space ship would be greater than its mass when at rest, it's mass becomes so high that it reaches infinity.

Explanation:

From Einstein's relativity equation E=mC^{2}, where E is energy, m is mass and C is the speed of light, the equation shows that energy (E) and mass (m) are interchangeable because there are different forms of the same thing if mass is somehow converted into energy (just as in the atomic bomb). This equation shows that mass increases with speed (as an object moves, its mass increases), and if an object were to move close to the speed of light (the fastest speed a particle can move in a vacuum) its mass would increase that in reaches infinity.

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

Yes, the errors are likely to be relevant

Explanation:

A systematic error occurs as a result of the instrument used in carrying out and experiment. These errors are a result of small fluctuations in the measurement properties of the instrument. This happens when the instrument departs from non-ideal situations, for example as a result of physical expansion or change in temperature. For instance, let the resistance be measured to be up to 10 Ω ± 1 Ω

The error of the resistance, ε = 0.01Ω

Gas and oil from the dead creatures, the gas, and oil are trapped under layers of rock
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Gas is on top of oil

Explanation:

Gas is less dense ( smaller density ) than oil which is more dense. Since density is directly proportional to mass and inversely proportional to volume, gas will occupy a larger space than oil.

The larger space occupied is the space above the mixture of oil and gas, hence gas is above oil

lightning is actually an enormous display of the concept of A.chemical heating B.solar energy C.magnetism D.grounding
allsm [11]

Answer:

D) Grounding

Explanation:

The potential difference between cloud and ground leads to ionization of the atmosphere and resulting conduction through the air often to ground (although it can be between clouds at different potentials. I would say grounding, like the spark when you touch a hot battery terminal to ground on a car.
