Pretend that the starship in thepreceding problem is somehowtraveling at c with respect to Earthand it fires a drone forward at speedc with respect to itself. Use theequation for the relativistic addition ofvelocities to show that the speed ofthe drone with respect to the earth isstill c. The Earth is stationary in theprevious problem. What would thespeed of the drone be to an observeron earth be if the earth was movingat 0.1c away from the drone relativeto a stationary observer in space?Type your answer in terms of c. (e.g.0.65c, 0.8c, etc.

The speed of the starship is vs = cThe speed of the drone with respect to the starship is vd = cWe…

Suppose a cosmic ray colliding with a nucleus in the Earth's upper atmosphere produces a muon that has speed v = 0.82c. The muon then travels at constant speed and lives 1.5 μs as measured in the muon's frame of reference. (You can imagine this as the muon's internal clock.) 1)how many meters does it travel as observed on the earth? 2)how many meters is this in muon's frame?
Please derive the Lorentz transformation equations for velocities. For an object, the velocity components seen in reference frame S are: ??, ??, ??. There is a reference frame S’ is moving relative to reference frame S in the direction of +?̂. Derive ?′?, ?′?, ?′?. Please show your derivation details.
The proper length of one spaceship is three times that of another. The two spaceships are traveling in the same direction and, while both are passing overhead, an Earth observer measures the two spaceships to have the same length. If the slower spaceship has a speed of 0.354c with respect to Earth, determine the speed of the faster spaceship. (Give your answer to at least 3 significant figures.) |c

A person on Earth observes two rocket ships moving directly toward each other and colliding as shown in the figure below. At time t = 0 in the Earth frame, the Earth observer determines that rocket A, travelling to the right at vA = 0.80c, is at point a, and rocket B is at point b, travelling to the left at vB = 0.60c. According to the Earth observer they are separated by a distance l = 4.2 x 108 m as shown in the other figure. How much time will elapse in frame A from the time rocket A passes point auntil collision?
