Relativity:
If a ship leaves the base at t = τ = 0 and travels straight ahead forever with constant acceleration a, show that no photo sent by the base after t = 1 / a, will ever reach the ship. If the acceleration of the ship is g, how long (as measured by the astronauts on board) does it take to reach a star that is n lightyears away from the base?

Student Name 1. A particle confined to motion along the x axis moves with constant acceleration fromx = 2.0 m to x 8.0 m during a 2.5-s time interval. The velocity of the particle at x - 8.0 m is 2.8 m/s. What is the acceleration during this time interval? 2. The polar coordinates of a point are r=5.50 m and Angle 240°. What are the Cartesian coordinates of this point? 3. On occasion, the notation A= [A, O] will...
An attacker at the base of a castle wall 3.65 m high throws a rock straight up with speed 7.40 m/s from a height of 1.55 m above the ground.
a. An attacker at the base of a castle wall 3.65 m high throws a rock straight up with speed 7.40 m/s from a height of 1.55 m above the ground. Will the rock reach the top of the wall? If so, how fast is it moving when it reaches the top. If not, what initial speed must it have to reach the top? b. To defend the castle, a rock is thrown downwards from the top of the wall with...
