Your 1000-m-long starship has warning lights at each end that, to you, flash simultaneously every minute. You are moving directly away from the planet Zerkon at 0.70c. To a Zerkonian, do the lights flash simultaneously? If not, which flashes first— the light at the front of your ship or the trailing one?
4. A ladder leans against a wall inside a spaceship. From the point of view of person on the ship, the base of the ladder is 2.00 m from the wall, and the top of the ladder is 5.66 m above the floor.
