Keilah, in reference frame S, measures two events to be simultaneous. Event A occurs at the point (65.0 m, 0, 0) at the instant 9:00:00 Universal time on January 15, 2013. Event B occurs at the point (130 m, 0, 0) at the same moment. Torrey, moving past with a velocity of 0.810ci, also observes the two events. In her reference frame S', which event occurred first? event A • event B What time interval elapsed between the events?

Twins who are 19.0 years of age leave the earth and travel to a distant planet 12.0 light-years away. Assume that the planet and earth are at rest with respect to each other. The twins depart at the same time on different spaceships. One twin travels at a speed of 0.905c, and the other twin travels at 0.407c. (a) According to the theory of special relativity, what is the difference between their ages when they meet again at the earliest possible time? A₂-A₁ = (b) Which twin is older?
The inertial reference frames, S and S', both share the same origin at t = t'= 0. The 5' trame is moving at a speed 0.700c in the positive direction, as seen by frame S. An event happens at (1', x', y', z') = (300s, 2.50×10m,1.50×10"m, 2.90x10"m), as observed in the S' frame. What are the spacetime coordinates in the S frame?

Two friends, Sungyoung and Azhar are initially 10 years old. While Azhar remains on Earth, Sungyoung rides on a spaceship which travels away from Earth at a speed of 1c for 5years (as measured by Azhar), then immediately turns around and comes back at 1c. When Sungyoung returns, Azhar is 2*5 years older than when Sungyoung left. How old is Sungyoung upon his return?
