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.

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

Cuántas veces es mayor la masa del protón que la del electrón?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Un protón es aproximadamente 1835 veces más masivo que un electrón. Si está preguntando acerca de sus dimensiones físicas, nadie lo sabe. Los científicos actualmente no saben qué tan pequeños son los electrones. ¡Son más pequeños de lo que podemos medir actualmente y pueden no tener un tamaño en absoluto!

Consider this situation: A baseball player dives head-first
siniylev [52]
Of the forces listed I think the force of him diving and sliding across the infield acted on the player.

I think so because the slowing down was a result of an action, and I don’t think that should count as An action when it is the result of an action. However, the act of diving head-first into second base and sliding across the infield are independent actions and will cause friction, which will act upon the player.

How many protons are in Calcium? (* Hint: The Atomic number of Calcium is 20).
ryzh [129]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 20

Explanation:

Atomic number is the number of proton and atom has. Each element has a specific number of protons, if the number of protons change, then this is a new element.

Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons and atom has.

                       Mass number = protons + neutrons

Data

Number of protons = ?

Atomic number = 20

Then,

           atomic number = number of protons = 20
