As you pilot your space utility vehicle at a constant speedtoward the moon, a race pilot flies past you in her spaceracer at aconstant speed of 0.79c relative to you. At the instant the spaceracerpasses you, both of you start timers at zero. (a) At the instant when youmeasure that the spaceracer has traveled 1.20 * 10^8 m past you, whatdoes the race pilot read on her timer? (b) When the race pilot reads thevalue calculated in part (a) on her timer, what does she measure to beyour distance from her? (c) At the instant when the race pilot reads thevalue calculated in part (a) on her timer, what do you read on yours?

An astronaut on a space station is moving away from earth at 0.6 c. A spacecraft mannedby a different astronaut is heading towards him in the direction of earth at 0.6 c relative to the space station.Mission control sits on earth and observes both crafts. The first astronaut watches a film in his space station.All three observers time how long the film takes. Who measures the film’s proper time?
Two students, Nora and Allison, are both the same age when Allison hops aboard a flying saucer and blasts off to achieve a cruising speed of 0.750c for a 27.5 year round trip (according to Allison). Neglecting the brief time periods required for the acceleration of the ship during blastoff and turnarounds, find the difference in age between Nora and Allison when they are reunited. 27.5 difference in age: усars Incorrect Who is older?

An experimenter has studied the decay of a K° particle in which it emits a 7° at 0.8c. One such K° particle passes the experimenter at 0.5c and decays, emitting a 7° in the original direction of motion. In the experimenter's frame, the speed of the T° is measured to be O 1.3c. O between c and 1.3c. between .5c and .8c. O between .8c and c..
