Concept explainers

Special Relativity

The theory of special relativity discusses how space and time are related to objects traveling along a straight line at a constant speed. Simply stated, as an object reaches the speed of light, its mass becomes infinite and it is unable to move faster than light. This interstellar speed limit has been the topic of much debate in astronomy, and also in science fiction when people consider how to fly over large distances.

The soldiers are in the middle of war and asking for medical supplies. As part of the Medical Team, you were tasked to deliver a 46.8kg of medical supplies with a diameter of 2.2m on the medical team assigned to look after with the wounded soldiers but you have to drop the medical supplies using a cannon ball. Calculate the time of flight and range of the medical supplies. Given:
You have scored a great internship with NASA, working on planning for an upcoming mission to Mars. The transfer orbit to Mars will last for several months and will require reclamation of the oxygen in the carbon dioxide exhaled by the crew. In one method of reclamation, 1.00 mol of carbon dioxide produces 1.00 mol of oxygen and 1.00 mol of methane as a byproduct. The methane is stored in a tank under pressure and is available to control the orientation of the spacecraft by controlled venting. A single astronaut exhales 1.09 kg of carbon dioxide each day. If the methanegenerated in the respiration recycling of three astronauts during one week of flight is stored in an originally empty 150-L tank at -45.0°C, what is the final pressure in the tank?
