- Suppose a space vehicle with a rest mass of 150 000 kg travels past the International Space Station at a constant speed of 2.6 x 108 m/s with respect to the I.S.S. When an observer on the I.S.S. measures the moving vehicle, her measurement of the space vehicle length is 25.0 m. a) Determine the relativistic mass of the space vehicle. b) Determine the length of the space vehicle as measured by an astronaut on the space vehicle.At what speed (in m/s) is the magnitude of a particle's relativistic momentum 20.8% larger than its classical value? HINT m/s1. You are an observer in a 100-m long spacecraft traveling from the earth to the moon at 0.8c. (a)What is the proper length of the spacecraft? (b) For a proper time interval of 1 sec., the relativistic time interval for the spacecraft measured from the earth reference frame would be: (c)Time dilation does not apply to all time-dependent physical and biological processes. T/F? (c) What is the relativistic length, DL measured from the reference frame of earth? (d) An APOLLO crew left a flat mirror reflector on the surface of the moon (for all you deniers out there, in the 50th anniversary year of APOLLO 11!). If the average surface-to-surface distance from the earth to the moon is 3.83 x 10^8 m, then how long does it take moonlight to reach earth?

- Imagine an alien spaceship and a human-controlled ship moving directly toward each other. An observer on Earth measures the both of their speeds as 0.685c with respect to the Earth. What is the speed of the alien ship with respect to the human ship? That is, what is the speed of the alien ship as measured by the pilot of the human ship? Express your answer as a fraction of the speed of light, c. |VAH/c|=2. A ladder 5.50 m long leans against a wall inside a spaceship.
