Albert and Emmy are looking to purchase some new spaceships. They pick out two identical single-seat space racers and take them

out to space for a test drive. After flying around for a while, they decide to do some experiments. As Albert flies past Emmy at a very high but constant velocity, Emmy measures the length of Albert's ship and compares it to the length of her own ship.
Emmy observes that Albert's ship is __________ her own ship.

At the same time, Albert observes Emmy's ship and compares it with his ship.

Albert observes that Emmy's ship is ___________ his own ship.

1) option B. Emmy observes that Albert's ship is shorter than her own ship.

2) option B. Albert observes that Emmy's ship is shorter than her own ship

Explanation:

Applying the principle of length contraction where the length of a moving object is seen as being contracted (shorter than its real length),the length of the object in the rest frame does not appear to change.

In this case, the space racer in his own ship measures a reduced length of the other ship flying past it at a high but constant speed. Moreover, the space racer in a ship measures the real length of his own ship and not a contracted length.

Therefore, Emmy will observe that Albert's ship is shorter than her own ship while Albert will also observe that Emmy's ship is shorter than his own ship. It is the principle of length contraction that holds

An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field given by E =-2.30 x 10-10 N/Cj. After the electron has traveled a ver
Goshia [24]

Explanation:

It is given that,

An electron is released from rest in a weak electric field of, E=2.3\times 10^{-10}\ N/C

Vertical distance covered, s=1\ \mu m=10^{-6}\ m

We need to find the speed of the electron. Let its speed is v. Using third equation of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2as

v^2=2as.............(1)

Electric force is F_e and force of gravity is F_g. As both forces are acting in downward direction. So, total force is:

F=mg+qE

F=9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 9.8+1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 2.3\times 10^{-10}

F=4.57\times 10^{-29}\ N

Acceleration of the electron, a=\dfrac{F}{m}

a=\dfrac{4.57\times 10^{-29}\ N}{9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg}

a=50.21\ m/s^2

Put the value of a in equation (1) as :

v=\sqrt{2as}

v=\sqrt{2\times 50.21\times 10^{-6}}

v = 0.010 m/s

So, the speed of the electron is 0.010 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Copper is a metal commonly used for electrical wiring in houses. Which metal conducts electricity better than copper at 20°C?
jek_recluse [69]
The correct answer is silver metal.
Conductivity measures the ability of a material or a metal to transmit energy, conductivity may be electrical, thermal or acoustical conductivity. The most electrical conductive element is silver, followed by copper and Gold. Silver also has the highest thermal conductivity as compare to any element. However, copper and Gold are more often used in electrical applications since copper is less expensive and gold has a much higher corrosion resistance.
