It sounds like a special relativity question but I need more info for a total answer. But remember it's length in the lab frame is
L•sqrt(1-(v/c)^2) where L is the rest length, v is its velocity magnitude and c is the speed of light. Sqrt is the square root (I'm on a phone so I can't see the math equation editor)

What is the speed of a car traveling 100 m in 20 s?
Ludmilka [50]

Answer: To answer this question, we will need the following equation: SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME (A multiplication and division triangle will be shown)i) The speed of the car is calculated by doing 100 metres/ 20 seconds which gives us 5 metres per second. ii) Rearranging the equation earlier, we can make the distance the subject of the equation so that we get SPEED x TIME = DISTANCE. We worked out the speed and the time was given as 1 minute 40 seconds but we cannot plug in the numbers yet as the time has to be converted to units of seconds (because our speed is in meters per second). 1 minute 40 seconds = 60 seconds + 40 seconds = 100 secondsWe then plug in the numbers to get the distance travelled = 5 metres per second x 100 seconds = 500 metres.

Is this a testable question?
faltersainse [42]
This is a non testable question because it cannot be answered by doing an experiment. But it could be modified for example Dogs are more obedient then cats.

A cannon elevated at 40 degrees is fired at a wall 300m away on level ground. The initial speed of the cannonball is 89m/s How l
lianna [129]
For the answer to the question above, we'll have to use these formulas.

A) to find time to travel the 300m,
just find horizontal component of the velocity and divide.
ie x=89 x t x cos 40, t=x/89 x cos 40 

<span>B) y=vtsin 40 - gt^2/2, just sub in
</span>
I believe you can do the rest.

I hope I helped you with my answers.

Agata [3.3K]
Which element is less reactive, an element whose atoms have seven valence electrons or an element whose atoms have eight valence electrons? Why?<span>an element with 8 valence electrons because it doesn't require any additional electrons to become stable</span>
