(1) Racing cars A and B are traveling on circular portions of a race track with the speeds indicated in the figure. At the instant shown, the speed of A is decreasing at the rate of 7 m/s², and the speed of B is increasing at the rate of 2 m/s?. For the positions shown, determine the values of r, 6, ř, è,ï and ë with respect to the observer at A, where r and 0 are measured relative to a longitudinal axis fixed to car A as indicated in the figure.

Two trains A and B each have proper length L and move in the same direction. A person C is on the ground, and observes that train A is behind train B. Observer C also measures the speeds of trains A and B to be 4/5c and 3/5c, respectively. Calculate the time it takes for train A to overtake train B as measured by a passenger on train B. By this we mean the time between the front of train A passing the back of train B, and the back of train A passing the front of train B.

Hi, I tried so hard for this question but I couldn't succeed. Can you solve this question for me. The coordinates of the position of the rocket in the figure at the given moment are (4,4,2) km. Observers at A, B and C are trying to measure their position relative to the rocket. Calculate the directional cosines of the rAR rBR, rCR vectors measured by the observers at the given moment.
At Brookhaven National Laboratory in New York, atomic nuclei are accelerated to 99.995% of the ultimate speed limit of the universe—the speed of light, c. Compared to the kinetic energy of a nucleus moving at 99.000% of c, the kinetic energy of the same nucleus moving at 99.995% of c is about (i) 0.001% greater; (ii) 0.1% greater; (iii) 1% greater; (iv) 2% greater; (v) 16 times greater.
A spacecraft of the Trade Federation flies past the planet Coruscant at a speed of 0.600?. A scientist on Coruscant measures the length of the moving spacecraft to be 74.0 m. The spacecraft later lands on Coruscant, and the same scientist measures the length of the now stationary spacecraft. What value does she get?
Two cars with a distance of 100 m between them are moving in the same direction with the same speed.At t= 0sec,the cars apply to constant acceleration with same magnitude but opposite direction simultaneously.At the 5th second the cars are at the same position and one of the car is stopping . calculate the velocity of the moving car at 5 the second.
Observers in reference frame S see an explosion located at x1=620 m. A second explosion occurs 6.0 micro-s later at x2=1500 m.In reference frame S', which is moving along the +x-axis at speed V, the explosions occur at the same point in space. What is the separation in time delta t' between the two explosions as measured in frame S'? Express your answer in microseconds (micro-s). delta t' = ? micro-s

An astronomer on Earth observes red light at 680 nm from a distant galaxy. The astronomy knows that the red light that was emitted from the galaxy source was 656 nm. The speed of light is 3E[8] m/s. Pretend that the Earth is stationary. What is the velocity of the galaxy as measured from Earth and is it approaching or receding?
