-
A.
Lorentz contraction
chosen
Lorentz contraction is the special relativistic effect in which an object’s length along the direction of motion appears shortened to observers in a different inertial frame moving at high relative velocity.
-
B.
Lorentz
Lorentz is a Dutch surname most famously associated with physicist Hendrik Lorentz, a pioneer of electromagnetic theory and relativity.
-
C.
Ehrenfest paradox
The Ehrenfest paradox is a thought experiment in special relativity that highlights the apparent contradictions arising from applying relativistic length contraction to a rigid rotating disk.
-
D.
Tolman–Ehrenfest effect
The Tolman–Ehrenfest effect is a relativistic thermodynamic phenomenon stating that, in a system at thermal equilibrium within a gravitational field, temperature varies with gravitational potential so that hotter regions occur deeper in the gravitational well.
-
E.
Shapiro delay
Shapiro delay is a general relativistic time delay experienced by light or signals as they pass through the gravitational field of a massive object, causing them to take slightly longer to travel than they would in flat spacetime.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
