An observer in reference frame S sees two events as simultaneous. Event A occurs at the point (32.0 m, 0, 0) at the instant 9:00:00 Universal time on January 15, 2001. Event B occurs at the point (150 m, 0, 0) at the same moment. A second observer, moving past with a velocity of 0.800cî, also observes the two events. In her reference frame S ', which event occurred first and what time interval elapsed between the events?
