Solution

The effect of length contraction of a moving object arises from:

  • The lack of synchronization of a set of uniformly moving clocks, which are otherwise synchronized in their rest frame of reference
  • "Leading clocks lag"
  • The relativity of simultaneity

The concept of "the ether" was disproven by the Michelson-Morley experiment and is not a part of modern physics, so it does not contribute to the effect of length contraction.

2. Identify the variation: “For the increase in speed, the time to cover a fixed distance reduces”.

According to the special relativity of Einstein, as the body speed increase and approach the speed of light, there is a time dilation and length contraction. But, according to a r/nonsense post again, the black flash effect is the cause for the difference in the length and the inconsistency in time. The mathematical explanation of the black flash effect has the same equations of the special relativity but with different symbols and naming for the equation for sure.*1 pointThe aforementioned is a hypothesis is it can be tested and can co-exist with the special relativity.The aforementioned is a theory but it's wrong as calculates the same thing.The aforementioned is an idea but it's wrong according to the Occam's razor.The black flash cannot be recorded on experimental devices; thus, not a hypothesis.

4.Question 4In the "pole in the barn" example done in the video, even though Alice's pole is 10 meters long, and Bob's barn is 8 meters long, Bob thinks that Alice's pole will fit completely inside as she goes through the barn. Why does Alice think Bob is wrong?1 pointAlice observes a length contraction effect for the barn, making it even shorter than its rest length of 8 meters.Bob's crazy.Alice observes her pole to increase in length as she travels toward the barn.
