•• A meter stick is moving with speed relative to a frame S. (a) What is the stick’s length, as measured by observers in S, if the stick is parallel to its velocity v? (b) What if the stick is perpendicular to v? (c)What if the stick is at to v, as seen in the stick’s rest frame? [HINT: You can imagine that the meterstick is the hypotenuse of a 30–60–90 triangle of plywood.] (d) What if the stick is at 60° to v, as measured in S?

Not hand-writing please (only if it is very clear).

I only need part c and d.

speed is 0.8c

Expert Solution

C) We know that the length of the moving object will be contracted. If the original length of the rod is l(l=1m) at rest then the measured length from rest-frame when it is at a velocity v=0.8c is

(cis the velocity of the light)

b) In the given scenario in the problem the parallel and perpendicular(to the velocity v=0.8c) length of are respectively

the parallel length will be contracted and perpendicular will be unchanged. Then the measured parallel length from s will be

the total length(l') measured from will be

and the measured angle will be

You attach a meter stick to an oak tree, such that the top of the meter stick is 2.47 meters above the ground. Later, an acorn falls from somewhere higher up in the tree. If the acorn takes 0.271 seconds to pass the length of the meter stick, how high above the ground was the acorn before it fell, assuming that the acorn did not run into any branches or leaves on the way down? acorn's height: _______m

A neutral pion, π0, moving at 0.999c relative to the lab frame decays into two massless particles. One particle moves in the same direction as the pion did while the other moves in the opposite direction. The pion has a mass of 135 GeV/c2. What are the energy and momentum of the massless particles as measured in the lab frame? As measured in the pion’s rest frame?

A billiard ball A moving at a speed of 2.4 m / s bumps into a billiard ball B of the same mass, which are at rest. After the impact, A moves at a speed of 1.4 m / s in a direction that forms the angle 50 ◦ with A's original direction of movement. Determine the magnitude and direction of B's velocity vector by the impact. (Answer 1.8 m / s; 36 ◦)
