Determines the kinetic energy of the electron, in MeV, as measured by the Scientists.Which of the following inertial reference frames are proper frames for the two events listed? Choose all that apply. ORED FRAME: A particle traveling at a constant velocity decayed in 3.8 μs. Event A was when. came into being (when it was 'born') & event B was when it decayed (when it 'died'). □ ORANGE FRAME: Event C happened at (5 m, -9 m, -8 m) and event D happened at (-5 m, -0.9 m, -8 m). O YELLOW FRAME: The distance between where event E occurred and where event F occurred was 4 m. □ GREEN FRAME: A rocket was traveling at a constant velocity when it passed through a stationary tunnel. Event G was the front of the rocket entering the tunnel and event H was the the front of the rocket leaving the tunnel. BLUE FRAME: A stationary rocket was engulfed by a hollow cylinder that was moving at a constant velocity. Event J was the front of the rocket entering the cylinder and event K was the the front of the rocket leaving the cylinder.
- To make the numbers simple we will regard the travelling twin as travelling at 0.866c during the trip (=2) to a planet 10.4 light-years away (this distance was chosen so that the trip time to destination = 12 years in earth frame). The total trip as measured in the earth frame is 24 years. Using the following information above, resolve the question on who is really younger by: a. Applying length contraction, time dilation and relativity of simultaneity.1.

The rocket's speed was measured to be 1.02c. ASK YOUR TEACH The rocket's rest length is 847 m. An observer flying by measured the rocket to be 173 m long. A rocket flying by the Sun at 0.48c measured the speed of the photons (particles of light) emitted by the Sun to be 0.79c. An inertial reference frame had an acceleration of 0 m/s². The proper time interval between two events was measured to be 296 s. The time interval between the same two events (as measured by an observer not in the proper frame) was 370

Calculate its kinetic energy. 2)Calculate the x-component of vSJ. vS = 6 km/s vJ = 9 km/s θ = 23o 3) In Jupiter's frame, the incoming spacecraft is moving rightward and upward, at 45o. The outgoing spacecraft, having already flown by, is going at the same relative speed, but leftward and upward, also at 45o. (See the figures.) You are going to transform back to the sun's frame and calculate the final outgoing speed. You need to follow several steps: Calculate the vector components of the outgoing vSJ. Add Jupiter's vector velocity to get the outgoing vS. Finally calculate the outgoing speed, vS = |vS| in km/s. Enter that as the final answer. use these parameters: vSJ = 4 km/s vJ = 8 km/sThe space and time coordinates for two events as measured in a frame S are as follows: Event 1: x1=x0 , t1=x0/c Event 2: x2=2x0, t2=x0/2c a.
