Complete question:
Part A:) The fictional rocket ship Adventure is measured to be 50 m long by the ship's captain inside the rocket.When the rocket moves past a space dock at 0.5c , space-dock personnel measure the rocket ship to be 43.3 m long. The rocket ship Adventure travels to a star many light-years away, then turns around and returns at the same speed. When it returns to the space dock, who would have aged less: the space-dock personnel or ship's captain?
Part B: What is the momentum of a proton traveling at 0.62 c ?
Answer
a)Who would have aged less=The Captain would have aged less
b)
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
Length measured by captain
Speed of rocket past tje space dock
Length measured by space-dock personnel
a)
Generally time moves slower when moving at speed of light, due to time dilation or variation.
Who would have aged less=The Captain would have aged less
b)
Generally the equation for Relativistic Momentum is mathematically given as
Answer: = 16.49N
Explanation: The object is placed on an inclined plane at an angle of 37° thus making it weight have two component,
= horizontal component of the weight = mgsinФ
= vertical component of weight = mgcosФ
Due to the way the object is positioned, the horizontal component of force will accelerate the object thus acting as an applied force.
by using newton's law of motion, we have that
mgsinФ - = ma
where m = mass of object=5kg
a = acceleration= unknown
Ф = angle of inclination = 37°
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8
= frictional force = unknown
we need to first get the acceleration before the frictional force which is gotten by using the equation below
where v = final velocity = 2m/s
u = initial velocity = 0m/s (because the object started from rest)
a= unknown
S= distance covered = length of plane = 5m
we slot in a into the equation below to get frictional force
mgsinФ - = ma
3 * 9.8 * sin 37 - = 3* 0.4
17.9633 - = 1.2
= 17.9633 - 1.2
= 16.49N
