According to einstein's first postulate about the special theory of relativity, which best explains why a person feels like he or she is sitting still on a train that is moving at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour? the train is moving more slowly than the speed of light. the person is moving at the same speed as the train. the motion of the train and of the person are not relative to each other. the reference frame of the person is inside the

Which of the following represents an upside-down image?

Consider a system to be two train cars traveling toward each other. what is the total momentum of the system before the train cars collide?   kg • what must the total momentum of the system be after the train cars collide?   kg •  

Your starship, the aimless wanderer, lands on the mysterious planet mongo. as chief scientist-engineer, you make the following measurements: a 2.50-kg stone thrown upward from the ground at 14.0 m/s returns to the ground in 5.70 s ; the circumference of mongo at the equator is 2.20×10^5 km ; and there is no appreciable atmosphere on mongo. (a) the starship commander, captain confusion, asks for the following information: what is the mass of mongo? (b) if the aimless wanderer goes into a circular orbit 2.20×10^4 km above the surface of mongo, how many hours will it take the ship to complete one orbit? (c) an unmanned spacecraft is in a circular orbit around the moon, observing the lunar surface from an altitude of 44.0 km . to the dismay of scientists on earth, an electrical fault causes an on-board thruster to fire, decreasing the speed of the spacecraft by 23.0 m/s . if nothing is done to correct its orbit, with what speed (in km/h) will the spacecraft crash into the lunar surface?
