Chapter 1, Problem 31(choose chapter or problem)
In the special theory of relativity the length \(l\) of a narrow rod moving longitudinally is a function \(l=l(v)\) of the rod's speed \(v\). The accompanying figure, in which \(c\) denotes the speed of light, displays some of the qualitative features of this function.
(a) What is the physical interpretation of \(l_{0}\) ?
(b) What is \(\lim _{v \rightarrow c^{-}} l(v)\)?. What is the physical significance of this limit?
