- Suppose you decide to travel to a star 85 light-years away at a speed that tells you the distance is only 25 light-years. How much is that speed?A millonairess was told in 1995 that she had exactly 15 years to live. However if she travels awayfrom the Earth at 0.8c and then returns at the same speed, the last New Year's day the doctors expecther to celebrate is ___________ This is about special relativity : time dilation, please include step by step so i could learn from it.Can you prove Newtonian mechanics is a subset of special relativity?
- If you use an Earth-based telescope to project a laser beam onto the Moon, you can move the spot across the Moon’s surface at a velocity greater than the speed of light. Does this violate modern relativity? (Note that light is being sent from the Earth to the Moon, not across the surface of the Moon.)A person puts in a 9.1 hr shift while travelling on a spaceship. An observer on Earth determines that the time spent was actually 11.8 hr. At what percent of the speed of light was the spaceship moving?We mention in the text that gravitational redshifts can be observed and measured during the collapse of a star into a black hole. When might the redshifts cease?
