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.

Sonja [21]
It seems that you have missed the necessary options for us to answer this question, but anyway, here is the answer. The type of machine that a wire cutter pliers is classified is a simple machine. When we say simple machine, this is the type of machine that is considered basic wherein you need to apply force for it to function. Hope this helps.

Suppose we take a 1 m long uniform bar and support it at the 33 cm mark. Hanging a 0.15 kg mass on the short end of the beam res
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The mass of the beam is 0.074 kg

Explanation:

Given;

length of the uniform bar, = 1m = 100 cm

Set up this system with the given mass and support;

  0-----------------33cm-----------------------------------100cm

  ↓                     Δ                                             ↓      

0.15kg                                                              m

Where;

m is mass of the uniform bar

Apply the principle of moment to determine the value of "m"

sum of anticlockwise moment = sum of clockwise moment

 0.15kg(33 - 0) = m(100 - 33)

0.15(33) = m(67)

m = \frac{0.15kg(33 \ cm)}{67 \ cm}\\\\m = 0.074 \ kg

Therefore, the mass of the beam is 0.074 kg
