Ana and Beto run a race. Both start from x = 0 at t = O measured in the reference frame of the Stadium. Ana does it to the right, up to the mark at x = L and Beto to the left until x = -L. Suppose they both travel at the same speed v relative to the ground. From the public's point of view, the race is fair. But Ana sees things differently. From his point of view (in his system of reference) you can see the clocks on your and Beto's finish lines. a) Ana complains to those in charge of the race that something is wrong with the clocks of the points of arrival. What do you see? (Be clear, specific and quantitative) b) Ana says that she won the race. Why do you think this? How much do you think you won? (A relativistic race - modern physics)
