Focus on Concepts, Question 18 Two spaceships are traveling in the same direction. With respect to...
Two spaceships leave Earth in opposite directions, each with a speed of 0.70 c with respect to Earth. What are the velocities of spaceship 1 relative to spaceship 2 and spaceship 2 relative to spaceship 1? Take the positive direction to be the direction of motion of spaceship 1.
Two spaceships are traveling, one in front of the other, in the same direction, at the same speed of 1.64 108 m/s relative to the earth. A laser pulse is emitted by one of the ships and is reflected back by a mirror on the other ship. The total round trip time for the laser pulse is 4.20 10-3 s. How long would it take for a small landing module to travel between the ships if its speed, relative to...
1. Two spaceships, each measuring 100 m in their own rest frames, pass by each other traveling in opposite directions. The instruments on end of spaceship B requires 5 microseconds to traverse the full length of A. spaceship A determine that the front a. What is the relative velocity of the 2 spaceships? b. A clock in the front end of B reads exactly one o'clock as it passes by the front end of A. What will the clock read...
Spaceships A, B, and C have the same proper length I, and according to an observer on Earth, are moving with same relativistic speed v in the +z, -, and -v direction, respectively. Find the length of each spaceship as measured by an observer in the Spaceship A. Spaceships A, B, and C have the same proper length I, and according to an observer on Earth, are moving with same relativistic speed v in the +z, -, and -v direction,...
Two spaceships A and B are exploring a new planet. Relative to this planet, spaceship A has a speed of 0.61c, and spaceship B has a speed of 0.72c. What is the ratio DA/DB of the values for the planet's diameter that each spaceship measures in a direction that is parallel to its motion?
A spaceship is moving past Earth at 0.99c. The spaceship fires two lasers. Laser A is in the same direction it is traveling, and Laser B is in the opposite direction. How fast will the light from each laser be traveling according to an observer on Earth? Select one: a. The light from Laser A will be traveling at 1.99c, the light from Laser B at 0.010 b. The light from Laser A will be traveling at c, the light...
please help 2. Now we are going to look at problem 1 again, but this time we are going to set the spaceship as the inertial stationary frame, meaning that the Earth is defined as the moving frame and traveling away from you. 1B:.8740 ; P = 2.058yr a. Using your answer from Ib as the speed of the moving frame, V, what is the speed of the Earth with respect to your spaceship? Using a Galilean Transformation equation for...
An inertial frame S’moves at a speed of 0.65c in x direction with respect to a frame S. Further, x= x’ = 0 at t = t’ = 0. Two events are recorded. In frame S, event 1 occurs at the origin at t= 0 and event 2 occurs on the x axis at x= 3.0 km at t= 4.0 us. According to observer S’, what is the time of (a) event 1 and (b) event 2? (c) Do the two observers see the...
Chapter 3, Problem 52 Two cars, A and B, are traveling in the same direction, although car A is 217 m behind car B. The speed of A is 18.0 m/s, and the speed of B is 15.2 m/s. How much time does it take for A to catch B? Number Units the tolerance is +/-2%
