Relativistic Energy and Momentum

According to classical physics, time flow is the same for every observer. But according to einstein's theory, time flow is different for different observers. The idea that time flow is not the same for all may sound strange because we may not experience this effect in everyday life. This effect is only observed when an object moves with some velocity comparable to the velocity of light. This velocity is termed relativistic velocity.

Question 26 3.3pts Doctors nationally believe that 78% of a certain type of operation are successful. In a particular hospital, 52 of these operations were observed and 42 of them were successful. At a = 0.05 is this hospital's success rate different from the national average? O Yes, because the test value 0.28 is in the critical region. O No, because the test value 0.28 is in the noncritical region. O No, because the test value 0.48 is in the noncritical region. O Yes, because the test value 0.48 is in the noncritical region.

She finds four magnets of different shapes and sizes: a small round one she labels "A," a long bar magnet she labels “B," a horseshoe magnet she labels "C," and a long cylinder magnet she labels "D." She is trying to find out if the size and shape of a magnet affect the strength of it. She decides to see how many paper clips each magnet can pick up in a paper clip chain to test the magnets' strength. Trisha's hypothesis is that the largest magnet (C) will be the strongest. After testing, Trisha finds out that magnet A picked up 6 paper clips, magnet B picked up 4,…

Two shuffleboard disks of equal mass, one orange and the other green, are involved in a perfectly elastic glancing collision. The green disk is initially at rest and is struck by the orange disk moving initially to the right at vOi = 5.80 m/s as in Figure a, shown below. After the collision, the orange disk moves in a direction that makes an angle of ? = 34.0° with the horizontal axis while the green disk makes an angle of ? = 56.0° with this axis as in Figure b. Determine the speed of each disk after the collision.
