An unstable particle is created in the upper atmosphere from a cosmic ray and travels straight down toward the surface of the earth with a speed of 0.99537 c relative to the earth. A scientist at rest on the earth's surface measures that the particle is created at an altitude of 40.0 km .
QUESTION 1: As measured by the scientist, how much time does it take the particle to travel the 40.0 km to the surface of the earth?
QUESTION 2: Use the length-contraction formula to calculate the distance from where the particle is created to the surfaceof the earth as measured in the particle's frame.
QUESTION 3: In the particle's frame, how much time does it take the particle to travel from where it is created to the surface of the earth?

Aperson gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. the cart travels forward along the floor, gradually slowing as it moves. consider the horizontal force(s) on the cart while it is moving forward and slowing. which of the following statements is correct? (a) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the forward force is larger. (b) only a forward force is acting which diminishes with time. (c) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the backward force is larger. (d) only a backward force is acting, no forward force.
