Lubov Fominskaja [6]3 years ago

Answer:

Mass and thus force depends on the reference frame chosen

Explanation:

This can be explained as Newton's law of gravity provides action which are instantaneous at a distance and involves the evaluation of all the quantities at present time or at the instant they occur.

If the body undergoes a change in its mass distribution there will be an immediate change in its gravitational force without any lag.

Now, if we talk about special relativity, it would be absurd to say that an information can travel faster than light. The effect is in synchronization with the cause in one reference frame where the effect occurs after the cause for some observer in some other reference frame.

In order to observe Newton's law of gravity all the observer's in different reference frames must observe the same phenomena which could only be possible if time were absolute and in special relativity, time is not absolute.

Therefore, Newton's law of gravity was inconsistent with the Einstein's Special Relativity.

Can anyone please tell me the properties of image formed in a spherical mirror?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The two rays, CY and DM are diverging rays and when extended behind the mirror, they appear to intersect each other at point M'. Therefore, the properties of the images formed here are formed behind the mirror, between the pole and principal focus (f), the images are diminished and are virtual and erect.

Explanation:

<h2>Spherical Mirrors</h2>

  • There are two kinds of spherical mirrors, concave and convex.

  • The focal point (F) of a concave mirror is the point at which a parallel beam of light is "focussed" after reflection in the mirror. ...

  • The focal length (f) and radius of curvature (R) are defined in the diagram at the right.

Answer:

ice

Explanation:

If the toy car is on a smooth surface, there is less friction. Therefore, the car will most likely go faster. Ice has the least friction so the toy car would travel fast.
