Answer:
209.66 m
Explanation:
Given:
Original length of the spaceship, L = 481 m
Speed of the spaceship, v = 2.70 × 10⁸ m/s
Now,
using the concept of length contraction, we have

where,
L' is the observed length
c is the speed of the light
Thus,
on substituting the respective values, we get

or
L' = 209.66 m
Answer:4.7N
Explanation:both of the sides are equal
We know that
tan(∅) = y/x; where y will be the height of the balloon and x will be the distance from the milestone marker.
The marker that is further away will produce a smaller angle of depression.
tan(18) = height / x
x = height / tan(18)
The second marker is x + 1 miles away:
tan(16) = height / x + 1; substituting x:
tan(16) = height / (height/tan(18) + 1)
tan(16) x [(height / tan(18) + 1] = height
0.88h + 0.29 = h
h = 2.42 miles
