The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to determine which of the given quantities remains the same when measured from different inertial reference frames. The options provided are: force, velocity, displacement, and kinetic energy. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Inertial Reference Frames**: - Inertial reference frames are those that are either at rest or moving at a constant velocity. The laws of physics are the same in all inertial frames. 2. **Analyzing Each Quantity**: - **Force**: - Force is defined as \( F = ma \) (mass times acceleration). - Acceleration is dependent on the change in velocity, which varies between different frames. Therefore, force is frame-dependent. - **Velocity**: - Velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement with respect to time (\( v = \frac{dx}{dt} \)). - Since displacement and time can differ in different frames, velocity is also frame-dependent. - **Displacement**: - Displacement is the change in position of an object. It is also frame-dependent because the position of an object can vary based on the observer's frame of reference. - **Kinetic Energy**: - Kinetic energy is given by the formula \( KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \), where \( m \) is mass and \( v \) is speed. - Speed is the magnitude of velocity and is a scalar quantity. While velocity is frame-dependent, the speed (magnitude of velocity) can be calculated in such a way that it remains consistent across different inertial frames when considering the same object moving with the same mass. 3. **Conclusion**: - Among the options, kinetic energy is the only quantity that remains the same when measured from different inertial reference frames. This is because mass is invariant and speed (as a scalar) does not change in value when calculated in different frames for the same object. Thus, the correct answer is **Kinetic Energy**. ### Final Answer: **Kinetic Energy**
