In the laboratory inertial frame, which we assume to be inertial, two events occur simultaneously at a distance of 3 m apart in the x-direction. In another inertial frame movingwith respect to the x-direction of the laboratory frame, one event occurs later than the other by 10-8 s. By what spatial distance are the two events separated in the movingframe? Assume that the value of the speed of light is c = 3 × 108 m/s.Select one:O a. 3 mO b. 3√2 mO c. 6 mO d. 2√/3 m

An astronaut is traveling at a constant velocity of 0.8 times the speed of light (c = 3 x 10^8 m/s) away from a space station. If the astronaut's clock is ticking normally, but the space station observes their clock to be running slower due to time dilation, calculate the time interval experienced by the astronaut during a 1-hour period according to their own clock.
