Question 126006: Hi Can I have some help with this problem?
According to the Theory of Relativity, the length L of an object is a function of its velocity v with respect to an observer. For an object whose length at rest is 25 m, the function is given below, where c is the speed of light.
L(v)=25 sqrt(1-(v^2)/(c^2))
(a) Find L(0.5c), L(0.8c), and L(0.84c).
