- A spaceship travels at 0.698c relative to Earth. If the spaceship fires a small rocket in the forward direction, how fast (relative to the ship) must it be fired for it to travel at 0.942c relative to Earth?? cTwo spaceships are moving along the line connecting them. One of the spaceships shoots a missile towards the other. The missile leaves the attacking spaceship at 0.955c and approaches the other at 0.755c. What is the relative velocity of the two spaceships? Express it as a ratio to the speed of light. Let the relative velocity of the spaceships be positive if they are approaching each other and negative if they are moving apart from one another.The starship Enterprise approaches the Klingon home world with speed 0.6c relative to the planet. To announce its arrival, the Enterprise sends a message in a projectile that travels toward the planet with speed 0.4c relative to the Enterprise. At what speed does Klingon at the surface of the planet see the projectile approach? Using relativistic velocity equation.

Please give your answer in nanoseconds.Your 1000-m-long starship has warning lights at each end that, to you, flash simultaneously every minute. You are moving directly away from the planet Zerkon at 0.70c. To a Zerkonian, do the lights flash simultaneously? If not, which flashes first— the light at the front of your ship or the trailing one?Two spaceships A and B are exploring a new planet. Relative to this planet, spaceship A has a speed of 0.60c, and spaceship B has a speed of 0.78c. What is the ratio DA/DB of the values for the planet's diameter that each spaceship measures in a direction that is parallel to its motion? Number Units
