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:

$l_o =52 \ m$

$l = 37.13 \ LY$

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 $l_o$

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

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

$l_o=52 \ m$

Considering b

Applying above equation

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

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

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

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

$l = 37.13 \ LY$

List 3 to 5 ways to reduce friction

pychu [463]

Make the surfaces smoother. Rough surfaces produce more friction and smooth surfaces reduce friction
Lubrication is another way to make a surface smoother
Make the object more streamlined
Reduce the forces acting on the surfaces
Reduce the contact between the surfaces.

What determines an object’s thermal energy

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

temperature and mass

Explanation:

The higher the temperature of a given quantity of a substance, more is its thermal energy.

If a substance contains more mass, this also implies that the object has more particles in it . hence, it has high thermal energy.

Additional Information :

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles of a substance.

The thermal energy of an object depends on three factors:

number of molecules in the object
temperature of the object.
thermal energy it has.

A force is applied to an object at rest with a mass of 100 kg. A force twice as large is applied to another object at rest with

MAVERICK [17]

The second object, the one that had twice the force applied to it, would move twice as far, I believe.
