Answer:

When you don't move, you still use energy. This energy is called potential energy, or, stored energy.

When you don't move or do work, you can use energy.

The kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame is 6.704*10^22 Joules.

To find the answer, we have to know about the Lorentz transformation.

<h3>What is its kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame?</h3>

It is given that, an alien spaceship traveling at 0.600 c toward the Earth, in the same direction the landing craft travels with a speed of 0.800 c relative to the mother ship. We have to find the kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame, if the landing craft has a mass of 4.00 × 10⁵ kg.

$V_x'=0.8c\\V=0.6c\\m=4*10^5kg$

Let us consider the earth as S frame and space craft as S' frame, then the expression for KE will be,

$KE=m_0c^2=\frac{mc^2}{1-(\frac{v_x^2}{c^2} )}$

So, to $V_x=(0.8+0.6)c-[\frac{0.6c*(0.8c)^2}{c^2}]=1.016$ find the KE, we have to find the value of speed of the approaching landing craft with respect to the earth frame.
We have an expression from Lorents transformation for relativistic law of addition of velocities as,

$V_x'=\frac{V_x-V}{1-\frac{VV_x}{c^2} } \\thus,\\V_x=V_x'(1-\frac{VV_x}{c^2} )+V$

Substituting values, we get,

$V_x=0.8c(1-\frac{0.8c*0.6c}{c^2} )+0.6c=(0.8c*0.52)+0.6c=1.016c$

Thus, the KE will be,

$KE=\frac{4*10^5*(3*10^8)^2}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(1.016c)^2}{c^2} } } =\frac{1.2*10^{22}}{0.179}=6.704*10^{22}J$

Thus, we can conclude that, the kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame is 6.704*10^22 Joules.

PLEASE HELP ME What does a moving charge experience when it is near a magnetic field? static friction gravity a stationary charg

attashe74 [19]

<u><em>A moving charge experiences a force as it moves close to a magnetic field present in a region.</em></u>

Explanation:

A charged particle when moves near a magnetic field is forced to move in a circular path. If there is a straight moving charged particle enters the region of the magnetic field, it's path is changed from straight path to the curved path.

The motion of the charged path inside or near the magnetic field will be a circular path and this circular path is due to the force experienced by the charged particle in the magnetic field.

The force experienced by the a charged particle as it moves near the magnetic field is termed as the Lorentz force. The expression for the Lorentz force experienced by the charged particle in the magnetic field is given by:

$\boxed{F_m=Q(\overrightarrow{v}\times\overrightarrow{B})}$

Here, $F_m$ is the magnetic force, $Q$ is the amount of charge, $\overrightarrow{v}$ is the velocity vector and $\overrightarrow{B}$ is the magnetic field intensity in the region.
