The proper length of one spaceship is three times that of another. The two spaceships are traveling in the same direction and, while both are passing overhead, an Earth observer measures the two spaceships to have the same length. If the slower spaceship has a speed of 0.354c with respect to Earth, determine the speed of the faster spaceship. (Give your answer to at least 3 significant figures.) |c

Suppose two angry rhinoceros charge each other. According to a few observers on the ground, the rhinoceros on the left moved to the right at a speed of (1 - ϵ)c while the rhinoceros on the right moved to the left at a speed of (1 - ϵ)c. ϵ is in the range of 0 < ϵ < 1. How fast is the rhinoceros on the right moving in the frame of the rhinoceros on the left? (Show that this speed is less than c, no matter how small ϵ is)

Calculate the interval ∆s2 between two events with coordinates ( x1 = 50 m, y1 = 0, z1 = 0,t1 = 1 µs) and (x2 = 120 m, y2 = 0, z2 = 0, t2 = 1.2 µs) in an inertial frame S. b) Now transform the coordinates of the events into the S'frame, which is travelling at 0.6calong the x-axis in a positive direction with respect to the frame S. Hence verify that thespacetime interval is invariant.
