1.You are driving slowly on the highway at 50 mph when a police car with its lights flashing passes you going 100 mph. Relative to you, the police officer is moving 50 mph. Far in the future, when humans have mastered space travel, an astronaut is moving in a spaceship at half the speed of light, v = c/2, relative to earth, when a light beam sent from earth moving parallel to the spaceship passes it moving at v =...

Two clocks, labelled 1 and 2, are at rest in an inertial frame , S. They are synchronized and separated by a distance, d, as measured in S. A third clock, 3, at rest in S', moves from clock 1 to clock 2 at constant speed, v. An observer in S' measures the distance between clocks 1 and 2 to be 0.72 d. 10 seconds elapses on clocks 1 and 2 in the time taken for clock 3 to travel...

Constants Any event can be considered from different perspectives. In particular, the description of the motion of a given object would depend on the motion of the person describing the motion, the observer. Any such observer, equipped with a coordinate system anda stopwatch, forms a trame of reterence. Usually, we assume that a trame of reterence is attached to some object. For instance, "the trame of reterence of earth" means the observer is at rest relative to earth. In this...
