- Question Consider the inelastic collision. Two lumps of matter are moving directly toward each other. Each lump has a mass of 0.500 kg and is moving at a speed of 0.930c. The two lumps collide and stick together. Answer the questions, keeping in mind that relativistic effects cannot be neglected in this case. What is the final speed vf of the combined lump, expressed as a fraction of c? Uf = What is the final mass mf of the combined lump immediately after the collision, assuming that there has not yet been significant energy loss due to radiation or fragmentation? mf = kgarrow_forwardHow much work must be done on an electron to accelerate it from rest to a speed of 0.892c?

From the point of view of a person on the ship, the top of the ladder is 4.61 m above the floor. The spaceship moves past the Earth with a speed of 0.80c in a direction parallel to the floor of the ship. What is the length of the ladder as seen by an observer on Earth?arrow_forward
