Inertia I think because I've heard it around school and in science
Answer:
Get your recommenders to mention diverse achievements. ...
Help your recommenders with relevant info. ...
The letter should always include examples of things you did. ...
The letter should show how you improved over time. ...
The tone of the letter should not be too dry.
Bob gained (80lbs x 14ft) = 1120 ft-lbs of energy.
Fred gained (110lbs x 14ft) = 1540 ft-lbs of energy
Since they both took the same amount of time, Fred's power (rate
of doing work) was greater than Bob's power (rate of doing work).
The lines of magnetic field from a bar magnet form closed lines. By convention, the field direction is taken to be outward from the North pole and in to the South pole of the magnet.
First of all, you didn't tell us WHO measured the "10 years".
If it was the people on Earth, then 10 years passed according to them.
If it was 10 years on the space traveler's clock, then the clock in the
OTHER place, like on Earth, is subject to the relativistic 'time dilation'.
If the clocks are moving relative to each other, then the time interval measured
on either clock is equal to the interval measured on the other clock, divided by
√(1 - v²/c²) .
You said that v/c = 0.85 .
v²/c² = (0.85)² = 0.7225
1 - v²/c² = 1 - 0.7225 = 0.2775
√(1 - v²/c²) = √0.2775 = 0.5268
If one clock counts up 10 years, then the other one counts up
(10years) / 0.5268 = <em>18.983 years </em>
I believe that's the way to do this, and I'll gladly take your points,
but let me recommend that you get a second opinion before you
actually take off on your 10-year interstellar mission.
