- 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?? cYou are on Earth, and a spaceship nearby is traveling at 0.85c. By your clock, 5.50 hours have passed. You compare your clock with the one on the spaceship. How much time has elapsed, as measured by the spaceship's clock?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 0.790c for a 17.5 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, difference in age: years Who is older? Allison They are still the same age. need more information Nora
- An astronaut travels to the next star at a speed of 0.95c and back. He notices that his trek has taken him 11 years. When he returns, how much time will have elapsed on Earth during his absence?A spaceship carrying a light clock moves at a speed of 0.6c relative to an observer on Earth. If the clock on the ship advances by 1.00 s as measured by the space travelers aboard the ship, how long did that advance take as measured by the observer on Earth? O 1.15 s O 1.25 s O 3.6 s O 2.6 s O 0.96 sA newly constructed spaceship has a length of 100.0 m (as measured in the rest frame). This spaceship departs the Earth, bound for a distant planet located a distance D = 50.0 light-years away from the Earth. It travels at a constant speed of v = 0.900c. Part A) As measured by Mission Control on Earth, how long does the journey take? Enter the numerical value in units of years. Part B) According to an astronaut on the spaceship, how long does the journey take? Enter the numerical value in units of years. Part C) As measured by Mission Control on Earth, what is the spaceship's apparent length? Enter the numerical value in SI units
- Suppose that you are traveling onboard a spacecraft that is moving with respect to the earth at a speed of 0.975c. You are breathing at a rate of 8.0 breaths per minute. As monitored on earth, what is your breathing rate?Spaceship R is moving to the right at a speed of 0.733c with respect to Earth. A second spaceship, L, moves to the left at the same speed with respect to Earth. What is the speed of L with respect to R?? c
