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.

A rock climber hangs freely from a nylon rope that is 15 m long and has a diameter of 8.3 mm. If the rope stretches 5.1 cm, what
irinina [24]

Answer:

Mass of the climber = 69.38 kg

Explanation:

Change in length

        \Delta L=\frac{PL}{AE}

Load, P = m x 9.81 = 9.81m

Young's modulus, Y = 0.37 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

Area

       A=\frac{\pi (8.3\times 10^{-3})^2}{4}=5.41\times 10^{-5}m^2

Length, L = 15 m

ΔL = 5.1 cm = 0.051 m

Substituting

       0.051=\frac{9.81m\times 15}{5.41\times 10^{-5}\times 0.37\times 10^{10}}\\\\m=69.38kg  

Mass of the climber = 69.38 kg

If you increase the size of the resistor and keep the voltage the same, what will happen to the current
Grace [21]

Answer:

If voltage is kept constant across the resistor itself, it' current will reduce. If the resistance is part of oscillator circuit, frequency response will change. If it is in series with capacitor or inductor, it will change the damping effect.
