Question

The Schwarzschild radius of a black hole is the point at which the escape velocity equals that
of light. Consider a sphere of mass M and radius R
(a) Using classical physics, write down the escape velocity from the sphere's surface. Find the
value of R for which it equals the speed of light. If the mass, M, is entirely inside this radius, it
is a black hole.

Please explain in detail An observer P stands on a train station platform as a high-speed train passes by at u/c = 0.8. The observer P, who measures the platform to be 60 m long, notices that the front and back ends of the train line up exactly with the ends of the platform at the same time. (a) How long does it take the train to pass P as he stands on the platform, as measured by his watch? (b) According to a rider T on the train, how long is the train? (c) According to a rider T on the train, what is the length of the train station platform?
Consider a particle that, once it comes to existence, decays on average after a short time t, where t is a time measured in the particle's frame of reference. If such a particle travels with speed v in an observer’s frame, what is the distance the particle has travelled as observed by the observer?
Alice and Mary are twins. Mary moves away from the Earth to a distant planet 12 light years away from the Earth. a) With what MINIMUM speed should Mary move in order to return to the Earth N=6 years younger than her sister? b) Explain the resolution of "twin paradox"? ( The twins seem to be in a symmetrical situation, why is one of them younger.)
Events 1 and 2 are exploding firecrackers that each emit light pulses. In the reference frame of the detector, event 1 leaves a char mark at a distance 3.40 m from the detector, and event 2 leaves a similar mark at a distance 2.10 m from the detector. If the two events are simultaneous in the reference frame of the detector and occur at instant t = 0, at what instant of time will each light pulse be detected?
