Answer:

Relativistic velocity is of the order of 1/10th of the velocity of light

Explanation:

We define relativistic speed (or velocity) as a speed that is a significant fraction of the speed of light: c = 3*10^8 m/s

Such that for these speeds, the special relativity theory starts to apply (the relativity effects starts to apply).

Usually, we define relativistic speeds as those that are of the order (or larger) of c/10, which is one-tenth of the speed of light.

Then the correct option is C:

Relativistic velocity is of the order of 1/10th of the velocity of light

Suppose the acceleration of an elevator is 1/2 g upward, then what is the reading on the scale in the elevator.
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

c. 3/2 mg

Explanation:

Given that the acceleration of an elevator is 1/2 g upward.

The reading on the scale of the elevator is the net external force acting on the elevator.

Let the force F acting on the elevator as shown,

By using Newton's 2nd law, F_{net}=ma

where, F_{net} is the net force acting on the elevator.

m is the mass of the elevator,

a is the acceleration of the elevator, as given a=1/2 g upward.

So, F_{net}=m\times \frac 1 2 g

F-mg=m\times \frac 1 2 g \\\\F=mg+ \frac 1 2 mg \\\\F= \frac 3 2 mg.

So, the reading on the scale in the elevator is \frac 3 2 mg.

Hence, option (c) is correct.

Which force changes the lithosphere by building up the surface?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

volcanic eruptions

Explanation:

The volcanic eruptions are the ones that manage to cause changes to the lithosphere by building up new material on the surface. Through the volcanic eruptions we have release of pyroclastic material on the surface, and more importantly and in much higher amount lava flows. The lava flows quickly cool off on the surface on the Earth, and as they do they pile up new layers of igneous rocks, thus new crust on the surface of the Earth, causing changes on the lithosphere and shaping it for the foreseeable future.
