A meter stick hurtles through space at a speed of 0.95c relative to you, with its length perpendicular to the direction of motion. You measure its length to be equal to
-0.05m
- 0m
-1.00m
-1,05 m
0.95m
If the meter stick were traveling at 95% of the speed of light with its length perpendicular to the direction of motion, its length would still be 1 meter. Length contraction only occurs in the direction of motion, so the meter stick would be one-tenth of its thickness in this situation

27.11 A meter stick moves past you at great speed.Its motion relative to you is parallel to its long axis. If you measure the length of the moving meter stick to be 1.90ft for example, by comparing it with a ruler that is at rest relative to you, at what speed is the meter stick moving relative to you?
A meter stick moves parallel to its axis with speed 0.85c relative to you. How long does it take for the stick to pass you?
Problem 5: A meter-stick is moving with a speed of 0.7 c relative to the Earth. What is the stick's length as measured by an observer on Earth if the stick is parallel to its velocity v? What is the stick's length as measured by the observer on Earth if the stick is making an angle of 50° with its velocity v?
a uniform 172 g meter stick rotates about an axis perpendicular to the stick passing through its center with an angular speed of 6.25 rad/s. (a) What is the magnitude of the angular momentum of the stick? (b) What would be the angular speed of the meter stick if it is rotated with the same angular momentum as in part (a) but about an axis of rotation situated at one end of the meter stick and parallel to the axis...
A meter stick is traveling past you at 0.6125c with its length pointed in the direction of its velocity. From your perspective, how long is the meter stick? Please show the steps legibly.
Conservation of Angular Momentum and Linear Momentum A meter stick is motionless on an icy surface (frictionless). A hockey puck is on a collision course towards the stick. The puck hits the stick at the 30 cm mark and is traveling perpendicular to the length of the stick. After hitting the stick, the puck is deflected 30 degrees from its original trajectory and is traveling at half of its original speed. Mass of a meter stick = 0.30 kg Mass...
1. Suppose a meter stick (length = 1 m) goes flying past you at velocity = 0.5c . As the stick goes by you measure its length. What length would you measure? (5 pts) 2. Suppose the Earth collapsed down to a black hole (this can’t really happen). What would be the radius of the black hole in meters? Newton’s gravitational constant G = 6.7 × 10-11 in metric units. The mass of the earth is 6.0 ×1024 kg. (5...
L A uniform meter stick is hung at its center from a thin wire. It is twisted and oscillates with a period of 5 s. The meter stick is then sawed off to a length of 0.76 m, rebalanced at its center, and set into oscillation. With what period does it now oscillate? Tnew = 3 Help Reset Enter 3 NO
How fast must a meter stick be moving if its length is observed to shrink to 0.65 m?
Please help thank you! Three masses are attached to a uniform meter stick, as shown in the figure. The mass of the meter stick is 0.5 kg and the masses to the left of the fulcrum are m = 4.4 kg and m2 = 4.8 kg. Find the mass my need to be attached to the right end of the stick to balance the system - 30 cm 40 cm - 30 cm A wheel rotates without friction about a...
