25. Anna and Bob are in identical spaceships, each 100 mlong. The diagram shows Bob's view as Anna's shippasses at 0.8c. Just as the backs of the ships pass oneanother, both clocks there read 0. At the instant shown,Bob Jr., on board Bob's ship, is aligned with the veryfront of Anna's ship. He peers through a window inAnna's ship and looks at the clock. (a) In relation to hisown ship, where is Bob Jr.? (b) What does the clock hesees read?00Anna's spaceshipBob's spaceship0.8c

We will use length contraction and Lorentz transformation equation for time to answer the questions.…

The fastest spacecraft ever launched was the Helios probe, which travelled approximately 70,000 m/s as it passed close to the Sun. The speed of light is 3x 10^8 m/s. Suppose the Helios probe passed by a stationary observer on Earth. The observer can see an accurate clock ticking on the side of the Helios Probe.How many seconds on Earth are equivalent to one second on the Helios probe?

The identical twins Speedo and Goslo join a migration from the Earth to Planet X, which is 20.0 light-years away in a reference frame in which both planets are at rest. The twins, of the same age, depart at the same time on different spacecraft. Speedo's craft travels steadily at 0.905c, Goslo's at 0.680c. Calculate the age difference between the twins after Goslo's spacecraft lands on Planet X. Which twin is the older? Goslo is older by years.
A person on Earth observes two rocket ships moving directly toward each other and colliding as shown in the figure below. At time t = 0 in the Earth frame, the Earth observer determines that rocket A, travelling to the right at vA = 0.80c, is at point a, and rocket B is at point b, travelling to the left at vB = 0.60c. According to the Earth observer they are separated by a distance l = 4.2 x 108 m as shown in the other figure. How much time will elapse in frame A from the time rocket A passes point auntil collision?
