- Michale is decided to buy a ticket to go to space. After meticulously planning his journey, he travels in his vessel at speed 7/10c from Earth to the nearby planet, Alfa-0 , 20 light-years away (as measured in the common rest frame of Earth and Alfa-0). He spends a year (as measured in Earth- Alfa-0 frame) on this foreign planet sharing stories of human history to aliens. Finally, he is ready to head home. His hosts, charmed by his friendliness and the stories of his wonderful home, give him their best space ship for the return voyage. In this new ship, he travels at speed 95/100 c. Let W be Michael's departure from Earth (which we can set as the origin of the reference frame), X his arrival to the Alfa-0, Y his departure from the Alfa-0, and Z his arrival back to Earth. a. Draw the spacetime diagram from the rest frame of the Earth - Alfa-0 system, indicating Michale's worldline, and the events, W, X, Y, Z. (A rough sketch will suffice - do not worry about the angles. b. Find the…A spaceship has proper length L_p and passes by a person standing on Earth. The personstanding on Earth measures that it takes time delta_t for the spaceship to pass a fixed point on theEarth. What is the speed (v) of the spaceship, according the person standing on Earth? Giveyour answer for v in terms of L_p, delta_t, and c (the speed of light).A cosmic ray particle is released from an exploding star that is 2600 Light Years from Earth.

- A day on the Earth has 24 hours. How fast must a spacecraft travel so that the spacecraft clocks tick through 23 hours (on spacecraft clocks) while the earth clocks tick through 24 hours from the viewpoint of an observer on the Earth?An astronaut is traveling in a spacecraft at a speed of 0.8 times the speed of light (0.8c) relative to an observer on Earth. If the astronaut spends 5 years according to their own onboard clock, how much time will have passed on Earth when they return?A group of astronauts travel to a nearby star system and back to earth at a velocity of 0.98c (98% of the speed of light) relative to earth. According to the astronauts' clocks, it takes them approximately 8 years to make the journey. Use the time dilation formula to determine how much time has passed on Earth in their absence.
- An astronaut is traveling at a constant velocity of 0.8 times the speed of light (c = 3 x 10^8 m/s) away from a space station. If the astronaut's clock is ticking normally, but the space station observes their clock to be running slower due to time dilation, calculate the time interval experienced by the astronaut during a 1-hour period according to their own clock.1.
