QUIZ 9 Mark____ Name___________________ 1. A ship is going from East to West with a constant speed of 10 m/s relative to the Earth. A small boat is passing near the ship. The captain of the ship measures a velocity for the boat, which in the ships reference frame is pointing from North to South and has a magnitude of 10 m/s. How much is the speed of the boat as measured by an observer who is in rest relative to the Earth? (30 p) 2. A person with mass M=50kg is standing on a balance in an elevator. In which direction does the elevator accelerate, and what is the value of this acceleration, if the balance indicates a mass of M'=80kg? (30 p) 3. Circle in the statements that you consider TRUE a. b. c. d. The third Law of Newton is not valid for inertial forces. In the IS system the unit for the inertial force is N (Newton). There are infinite number of different inertial reference systems. The Foucault experiment would have not been successful if it has been done on the Equator. (20 p) 4. Describe the inertial forces which can be present while traveling on a train. (when they appear, what direction do they have, what effects they cause) (20 p)
