If zero mass particle have a speed c in one reference frame Can they be found at rest in other frame?
"c" is usually used, in this context, for the speed of light. If such a particle has the speed of light in one frame of reference, then, strange as it may seem, it will have the speed of light in ANY frame of reference.
What is speed of a stationary object?
In the frame of reference in which the object is stationary, its speed is zero. (Actually, that's kind of a definition of "stationary".)
What is the speed of photon at rest?
Speed = 0 The definition of "rest" is zero velocity in the observer's frame of reference. However, it's important to point out that photons don't do "at rest."
How do whe know that an object in moving?
First, it depends on your inertial reference frame. If I'm riding in a car holding a book in front of me, in my reference frame the book is stationary, but in the reference frame of a pedestrian the book is moving at the same velocity as the car.That having been said, an object has moved if its position has changed with respect to time. If we look at an object at two different times, t(1) and t(2), and the object was in two different places, p(1) and p(2), then the object moved at an average speed of [p(2) - p(1)] ÷ [t(2) - t(1)].
What are some ways mass would increase an object?
If you accelerate it close to the speed of light it's mass increases in your frame of reference.
What gives you a frame of reference for speed when riding a train?
Displacement vectors of 10m west and 14m west make a resultant vector that is

"c" is usually used, in this context, for the speed of light. If such a particle has the speed of light in one frame of reference, then, strange as it may seem, it will have the speed of light in ANY frame of reference.
What is synchronous reference frame?
It has been shown that the speed of rotation of the d.q axes can be arbitrary although there are three preferred speeds or reference frames as follows: (a) the stationary reference frame when the d,q axes do not rotate; (b) the synchronously rotating reference frame when the d,q axes rotate at synchronous speed; (c) the rotor reference frame when the d,q axes rotate at rotor speed.
What does the theory of special relativity say about the equivalence of different frames of reference?
It says that the speed of light in a vacuum measured in any inertial frame of reference is equivalent to the speed of light in a vacuum measured in any other inertial frame of reference.
Speed what does it mean?
Speed is the relative velocity of a body (such as an athlete) given a frame of reference (such as the ground).
What is power mode when riding?
it gives you extra power and fast speed
What was Einstein's thought about light?
He hypothesized that the speed of light is constant, no matter what the frame of reference is.
What happens to an objects length if its close to the speed of light?
It depends on the observer's frame of reference.
What is speed of a stationary object?
In the frame of reference in which the object is stationary, its speed is zero. (Actually, that's kind of a definition of "stationary".)
What is speed of light in a car?
299,792,458 m/s - the same as any other time. Your frame of reference does not change the speed of light.
When a car is said to be driving on the highway at 70 mph what frame of reference is used to calculate that speed?
Distance that can be traversed at that speed in that amount of time.
Is a bee flying in a moving vehicle flying at the same velocity as that of the vehicle?
it will have the same ground speed (or very similar), but its indicated air speed, (speed in relation to air molecules around it) will be slower. Unless it is a very fast bee flying in circles within the car... The key to the answer is the frame of reference. To the pilot, his stationary frame of reference is the surface of the earth. Relative to that frame, he is moving at a high speed. The frame of reference for the bee or an observer of the bee in the plane is the interior of the plane. So choose your frame of reference before you think through the problem. The pilot is actually on a planet moving through in orbit around the sun at about 19 miles per second, but because he cannot perceive that motion, it is ignored and he tries to get the best groundspeed (across the surface of the earth) given the prevailing winds at various altitudes (his frame of reference....the surface of the earth). == ==
