Question 1

In an "atom smasher," two particles collide head on at relativistic speeds. If the velocity of the first particle is 0.741c to the left, and the velocity of the second particle is to the right (both as measured in the lab rest frame), how fast are the particles moving with respect to each other?
◦ 1.284c
◦ 0.834c
◦ 0.916c
◦ 0.934c

Question 2

As shown in the figure, the captain of spaceship A observes spaceship E escaping with a relative velocity of 0.35c. A missile M is fired from ship A directly toward ship E, with a velocity of 0.76c relative to ship A. What does the captain of ship E measure for the velocity of the missile M?



◦ 0.56c
◦ 0.41c
◦ 0.48c
◦ 0.52c
◦ 0.45c

Cyanide works by making the human body unable to use oxygen.

Did you know?

The human body's pharmacokinetics are quite varied. Our hair holds onto drugs longer than our urine, blood, or saliva. For example, alcohol can be detected in the hair for up to 90 days after it was consumed. The same is true for marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, heroin, methamphetamine, and nicotine.

Did you know?

Hippocrates noted that blood separates into four differently colored liquids when removed from the body and examined: a pure red liquid mixed with white liquid material with a yellow-colored froth at the top and a black substance that settles underneath; he named these the four humors (for blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile).

Did you know?

Blood in the urine can be a sign of a kidney stone, glomerulonephritis, or other kidney problems.

Did you know?

An identified risk factor for osteoporosis is the intake of excessive amounts of vitamin A. Dietary intake of approximately double the recommended daily amount of vitamin A, by women, has been shown to reduce bone mineral density and increase the chances for hip fractures compared with women who consumed the recommended daily amount (or less) of vitamin A.
