A spacecraft passes you at 0.29 the speed of light. By what factor would its relativistic energy increase if its speed doubled?
using the equation E = m / ( 1 - V2 / C2 )1/2
E2 / E1 = ( 1 - V12 / C2 )1/2 / ( 1 - V22 / C2 )1/2
E2 / E1 = ( 1 - 0.292 X C2 / C2 )1/2 / ( 1 - 2 X 0.292 C2 / C2 )1/2
E2 / E1 = ( 1 - 0.292 )1/2 / ( 1 - 2 X 0.292 )1/2
E2 / E1 = 1.1748

A 1000-kg spacecraft passes you at 1/5 the speed of light, What is its relativistic energy?
Light speed and classical physics. a. How much energy would it take to accelerate an electron to light speed according to classical (non-relativistic) physics? b. With this energy, what is its actual (relativistic) speed?
When a fast electron (i.e., one moving at a relativistic speed) passes by a heavy atom, it interacts with the atom's electric field. As a result, the electron's kinetic energy is reduced, the electron slows down in the meantime, a photon of light is emitted. The kinetic energy lost by the electron equals the energy E_r of a photon of radiated light. E = K - K', where K and K' are the kinetic energies of the electron before and...

You measure the length of a passing Clingon spacecraft to be 140 m. If the Clingon spacecraft is moving at 0.8 the speed of light, what would be its length in metres if it was at rest relative to you? Give your answer to the nearest whole number
The crew of an enemy spacecraft attempts to escape from your spacecraft by moving away from you at 0.283 of the speed of light. But all is not lost! You launch a space torpedo toward the foe at 0.341 of the speed of light with respect to you. At what speed in kilometers per second does the enemy crew observe the torpedo approaching its spacecraft?
Problem 2 please Relativity: Ar-ar- Relativistic addition of velocities: -- Problem 1. A child riding a train throws a ball with speed 2/5 of the speed of light in the +x direction, in the train's reference frame. The train itself is moving at a constant speed of 2/5 in the +x direction with respect to the ground. What is the speed of the ball as observed by someone on the ground? The speed of light is c.
