- Two identical spaceships are under construction. The constructed length of each spaceship is 1.1 km. After being launched, spaceship A moves away from earth at a constant velocity (speed is 0.850c) with respect to the earth. Spaceship B follows in the same direction at a different constant velocity (speed is 0.6c) with respect to the earth. Determine the length that a passenger on one spaceship measures for the other spaceship.Suppose a cosmic ray colliding with a nucleus in the Earth's upper atmosphere produces a muon that has a velocity v= 0.980c. The muon then travels at constant velocity and lives 1.52 us as measured in the muon's frame of reference. (You can imagine this as the muon's internal clock. See the figure below. Enter your answers to at least four significant figures. Assume the speed of light is 2.998 x 108 m/s.) اد us At (a) How long (in us) would the muon have lived as observed on the Earth if its velocity was 0.0690c? (b) How far (in m) would it have traveled as observed on the Earth? (c) What distance (in m) is this in the muon's frame?A relativistic proton has a momentum of 1.0 × 10-17 kg ∙ m/s and a rest energy of 0.15 nJ. What is the kinetic energy of this proton?

- If a m = 90.7 kg person were traveling at v = 0.875c, where c is the speed of light, what would be the ratio of the person's relativistic kinetic energy to the person's classical kinetic energy? kinetic energy ratio: What is the ratio of the person's relativistic momentum to the person's classical momentum? momentum ratio:A spaceship whose rest length is 283 m has a speed of 0.87c with respect to a certain reference frame. A micrometeorite, also with a speed of 0.87c in this frame, passes the spaceship on an antiparallel track. How long does it take this object to pass the spaceship as measured on the ship? Number UnitsA particle has a rest energy of 4.31×10−13 J and a total energy of 8.33×10−13 J. Calculate the momentum p of the particle.

X c KE/E= ?The velocity of an alpha particle, He2+, with a mass of 6.64×10−27kg changes from v1=(−0.30, 0.45,0.10)c to v2=(−0.50, 0.30, −0.75)c, where c=3×108m/s. Determine the change in the particle’s kinetic energy.(In the kinetic energy formula, do not forget to square the speed of light.)
