- Two rockets moving towards each other. Rocket A moving to the right with speed 0.80c while rocket B moving to the left with speed 0.60c. The length of the two rockets are the same, that are 50m as measured by the earth observer. i) What is the lengths of the two rockets as measured by the astronouts in their rockets? ii) What is the velocity of the rocket relative to each other? iii) If the earth observer measured the initial distance of the two rockets to be 2.52 x 1012 m apart, what are distance of the two rockets observed by observer in the rockets? iv) How long before they collide, observed by the observer in the rockets? v) If both rockets could evacuate within 90 min (their own time), will they survive?If possible please do this on a computer. Thank you A spaceship passes you at a speed of 0.90c. You find the length of the ship in your frame of reference to be 50.0 m.
