Question

If a rod travels with a speed of v=0.6c along its length caluctated the length contraction

Answer 1

Answer:

sorry but please mark me as brain list I need it

Answer 2

The length contraction is 20%

Explanation:

Let the length of the rod be $L_0$

Velocity of the rod v = 0.6c

When the rod moves, the length contraction is given by

$\boxed{L=L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}}$

$\implies L=L_0\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.6c)^2}{c^2}}$

$\implies L=L_0\sqrt{1-0.36}$

$\implies L=L_0\sqrt{0.64}$

$\implies L=L_0\times 0.8$

$\implies L=0.8L_0$\

Length contraction

$=L_0-L=0.2L_0$

Percentage contraction

$=\frac{L_0-L}{L_0}\times 100$

$=\frac{0.2L_0}{L_0}\times 100$

$=20\%$

Hope this answer is helpful.
