- You’re a time traveler. As you hurtle across the Universe at the
speed of light you turn on a flashlight and point it in front of you; what happens to that light? Now you fire off some gamma rays forward; what happens to those?

- If the Sun was shrunk to fit the same mass into a smaller volume what would happen to the curvature of spacetime near the surface of the Sun? Spacetime curvature wouldn't change as the mass hasn't changed. Spacetime curvature would stay the same (which we would feel as the same gravity at the surface) Spacetime curvature would increase (which we would feel as an increase in gravity near the surface) Spacetime curvature would decrease (which we would feel as a decrease in gravity near the surface)What is the order of objects to form from first to last after the Big Bang nuclei,neutral Atoms, protons?How much mass would have to be converted to energy to get the energy of one-megaton bomb of TNT? One megaton of TNT = 4 × 10 15 Joules.
- Please list 4 different forms of energy present in the universe?Suppose a spaceship has the mass of a typical ocean cruise ship, then it can be assumed that it has a mass of 3.1 × 108 kg. Consider the kinetic energy required at 13 % of the speed of light. If energy to get a spaceship to cruising speed is generated using matter-antimatter annihilation, what mass of antimatter in kg is required?Hint: Matter-antimatter annihilation converts an entire mass of matter and antimatter into pure energy with no loss.Brief various postulates of special relativity.
- Choose the BEST answer to the following: Things that are equivalent according to the equivalence principle are (a) space and time. (b) a traveling twin and a stay-at-home twin. (c) gravity and acceleration. (d) mass and energy.In your own words (no plagiarism) state the two postulates of Albert Einstein's special theory of relativity. And explain them, again in your own words.
