A base on Planet X fires a missile toward an oncoming space fighter. The missile’s speed according to the base is 0.85c. The space fighter measures the missile’s speed as 0.96c. How fast is the space fighter traveling relative to Planet X?
Your answer is partially correct. As the drawing shows, a carpenter on a space station has constructed a 30.0° ramp. A rocket moves past the space station with a relative speed of 0.773c in a direction parallel to side x. What does a person aboard the rocket measure for the angle of the ramp? Number MO 42.50 Units 30.0° X A
Based on a grade 11 physics student, answer the following question:The rebels are fighting the imperials on the icy planet Hoth. Han Solo didn’t dress for the weather (this ain’t Tattooine bud!), and is frozen solid (1234 kg of ice, at -123˚C ). Fortunately for Han, an AT-AT walker shoots its blasters and misses its target but hits Han which vaporizes the ice and brings him to a piping 102˚C. How much heat was added to Han Solo to turn him from a frozen chunk into a ‘Luke-warm’ rebel?
An astronaut travels to the next star at 0.95c and back. He notices that hishike took him 11 years. When he returns, what will be the period of timethat will have passed on Earth during his absence?
Question 24. Suppose a cosmic ray colliding with a nucleus in the Earth’s upper atmosphere produces a muon that has a velocity ?=0.950?. The muon then travels at constant velocity and lives 1.52?s as measured in the muon’s frame of reference. (You can imagine this as the muon’s internal clock.) a. How far does it travel as viewed by an observer moving with it? Base your calculation on its velocity relative to the Earth and the time it lives (proper time). b. What distance does the muon travel according to an Earth-bound observer? *for first part 0.433 km can you help with the second part?
An event occurs in a reference system at x = 500 m and t = 0.90 μs. AnotherThe reference system is moving at a speed of 0.9c on the positive x axis according to this reference system.
