Answer:

Decreases/Reduces

Explanation:

Fill in the blank:

Consider the equation Work = Force X Distance.

<em>If a machine increases the distance over which a force is exerted, the force </em>

<em>required to do a given amount of work</em> .........

If the work is a constant value, then by isolating force from the equation, we get:

Force = Work / Distance

By increasing the value of the Distance, then the quotient Work. Distance diminishes, and therefore the required force decreases (diminishes, reduces)

Answer: Decreases/Reduces

A starship travels to a planet that is 20 light years away. The astronauts stay on the planet for 2.0 years before returning at

ad-work [718]

Answer:

astronauts age is 32 years

correct option is e 32 years

Explanation:

given data

travels = 20 light year

stay = 2 year

return = 52 years

to find out

astronauts aged

solution

we know here they stay 2 year so time taken in traveling is

time in traveling = ( 52 -2 ) = 50 year

so it mean 25 year in going and 25 years in return

and distance is given 20 light year

so speed will be

speed = distance / time

speed = 20 / 25 = 0.8 light year

so time is

time = $\frac{t}{\sqrt{1-v^2} }$

time = $\frac{25}{\sqrt{1-0.8^2} }$

time = 15 year

so age is 15 + 2 + 15

so astronauts age is 32 years

so correct option is e 32 years

A rocket passing the earth with high speed will look shorter for the stationary observer measuring the size on earth than travel

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This can be explained by the special theory of relativity for length contraction.

Length contraction is observed in the direction of motion of an object when an object moves with speed closer to the speed of light.

The length of the rocket in this case, appears shorter to the observer on earth in the stationary reference frame which is improper frame whereas the traveler in the rocket is in the same inertial frame which is proper for the rocket's size measurement.
