Answer:

More than 1 nanosecond.

Explanation:

According to the theory of special relativity, the observed time for an event by person that moves fast is slower (dilation of time) than the observed time by another person that is in a stationary reference. Therefore, the time is relative upon the speed of the observer.    

So, the answer to the question is the observer at rest outside the spaceship sees the same up-and-down flash in more than 1 nanosecond.        

I hope it helps you!

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Option (d)

Explanation:

The electrons in a conductor moves with the drift velocity when the electric current is flowing through the conductor.

The drift velocity is due to the applied electric field across the conductor.

If you have two objects on the edge of a cliff, how can you determine which one has the most potential energy?
True [87]

Answer: now take this with a grain of salt because I'm in middle school but I think that the more massive object has more potential energy.

The purpose of this lab is to explore the various ways to calculate projectile velocity using horizontal, vertical and angle inf
kolezko [41]

Answer: A projectile is any object in which the only force is gravity

Explanation: Equations on how to calculate projectile velocity is stated below:

The initial velocity Vo being a vector quantity, has two componentsVox and Voy  

V0x = V0 cos(θ) 

V0y = V0 sin(θ) 

The acceleration A is a also a vector with two components Axand Ay given

Ax = 0 and Ay = - g = - 9.8 m/s2 

Along the x axis the acceleration is equal to 0 and therefore the velocity Vx is constant  

Vx = Vocos(θ) 

Along the y axis, the acceleration is uniform and equal to - g and the velocity at time t is g

Vy = Vo sin(θ) - g t 

Along the x axis the velocity Vx is constant and therefore the component x of the displacement is

x = Vocos(θ) t 

Along the y axis, the motion is of uniform acceleration and the y component of the displacement is

y = Vo sin(θ) t - (1/2) g t2
