Physics Question on Mechanics and General Properties of Matter
A rod with a proper length of 3 m moves along x-axis, making an angle of 30° with respect to the x-axis. If its speed is 2cm/s, where c is the speed of light, the change in length due to Lorentz contraction is _________ m (Round off to 2 decimal places). [Use c=3x108m/s]
Answer
The correct answer is :-0.31 to -0.29 or 0.29 to 0.31 (approx)
