Physics
The mass of a body :
- changes with a change of place
- changes with direction
- changes when the velocity of the body is close to the velocity of light
- none of these
Answer
changes when the velocity of the body is close to the velocity of light
Reason — The mass of a body increases with its velocity but this change is perceptible only when the velocity of the body v becomes more than 106 ms-1 i.e., reaches close to the speed of light c = (3 x 108 ms-1), so for a body moving with velocity less than 106 ms-1, its mass is taken to be constant.
