The figure shows a right-angled construction frame ABC.When measured at rest,it has dimensions as follows: AB = 18.9 m,AC = 10.0 m,and BC = 16.0 m.This frame is now given a new velocity of 0.420c,relative to Earth,in a direction parallel to AC.How long is part BC of this frame with the new velocity as measured by Earth-based engineers? 
A) 16.0 m
B) 14.0 m
C) 12.0 m
D) 10.0 m
E) 18.0 m
