A particle is observed to have a lifetime of 1.50 X 10^-6 s when it is at rest in the laboratory. What is its lifetime when it is moving at 0.800c? How far will the particle move with respect to the moving frame of reference before it decays? How far will the particle move with respect to the laboratory frame before it decays?
A plate having an area of 0.6m2 is sliding down the inclined plane at 30° to the horizontal with a velocity of 0.36m/s. There is a cushion of fluid 1.8 mm thick between the plane and the plate. Find the viscosity of the fluid if the weight of the plate is 280N.
