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

How heat is conducted along a metal bar?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

If one end of a metal bar is heated, the atoms at that end vibrate more than the atoms at the cold end. The vibration spreads along the bar from atom to atom.

Explanation:

The spread of heat in this way is called conduction. Metals are good conductors of heat.

At what water depth will a deep-water wave with a wavelength of 40 meters begin to "feel bottom"? 5 meters 15 meters 20 meters 1
ella [17]
The answer is 20 meters would be the water depth started to feel bottom. This is half of the wavelength. The reason behind this is the wave travels half or the partial of the wavelength underneath the surface. For that reason that is where the wave would be starting to feel the ground.
