A muon is created 60 km above the surface of the earth. In the earth’s frame, the muon is traveling directly downward at 0.9999c.a. In the earth’s frame of reference, how much time elapses between the muon’s creation and the time it reaches the surface?b. Use time dilation to determine, in the muon’s frame, how much time elapses between the muon’s creation and the time it reaches the surface.c. In the muon’s frame of reference, length contraction reduces the distance between the point at which it is created and the surface of the earth. What is this distance?d. The ratio of the distance you calculated in part c and the time you calculated in part b is a speed. Calculate this speed; what do you notice?
Two spaceships are moving away from Earth in opposite directions, one at 0.83*c, and one at 0.83*c (as viewed from Earth). How fast does each spaceship measure the other one going? *C. The first spaceship heads to a planet 10 light years from Earth. Observers on Earth thus see the trip taking 12.04819 years. How long do people aboard the first spaceship measure the trip taking? years
Max observes a spaceship traveling toward him at 0.6c. He measures its length and finds that the spaceship is 41.4 m long. The ship brakes hard and skids to a stop on a nearby airstrip. Max remeasures the spaceship. What length does he now find?
Two rockets fly away from the Earth in opposite directions. Each rocket is moving at a speed of v = 0.83 c as seen from the Earth. a. How fast is rocket "B" moving as seen by the astronaut in rocket "A"? Express your answer as a decimal fraction of the speed of light. b. If the astronaut on rocket "A" measures a time interval of 60 minutes, how much time would they say goes by for the astronaut on rocket "B"? minutes c. Rocket "A" travels out from Earth at a speed of v = 0.83 c for a period of one year as measured on Earth, turns around, and then travels back to the Earth at the same speed for another Earth year. How much did the astronaut on the rocket age? years

A spaceship travels at 0.818c relative to Earth. If the spaceship fires a small rocket in the forward direction, how fast (relative to the ship) must it be fired for it to travel at 0.870c relative to Earth?
If a m = 81.1 kg person were traveling at v = 0.980c, where c is the speed of light, what would be the ratio of the person's relativistic kinetic energy to the person's classical kinetic energy? kinetic energy ratio: What is the ratio of the person's relativistic momentum to the person's classical momentum? momentum ratio:
Two friends, Sungyoung and Azhar are initially 10 years old. While Azhar remains on Earth, Sungyoung rides on a spaceship which travels away from Earth at a speed of 1c for 5years (as measured by Azhar), then immediately turns around and comes back at 1c. When Sungyoung returns, Azhar is 2*5 years older than when Sungyoung left. How old is Sungyoung upon his return?
You travel in a 2,500,000 kg spacecraft from Earth to our closest neighbouring star, Proxima Centauri, which is 4.22 ly (light years) away. Your spacecraft travels at 0.9 c. How much time does this take from Earth's frame of reference? (Ans: 4.7 y) How much time does it take from your frame of reference? (Ans: 2.0 y) c) What distance do you travel from your frame of reference? (Ans: 1.74x1016 m) What distance does an observer from Earth see you traveling? (Ans: 3.99 x 101 m) What would the mass of your spacecraft appear to be relative to the Earthlings?
A very fast-moving train car passes you, moving to the right at 0.50c. You measure its length to be 12 m. Your friend David flies past you to the right at a speed relative to you of 0.80c. How long does David measure the train car to be?
David is 30 years old, and his sister Alexis is 25 years old, when David leaves to travel to planet Rosebud. Planet Rosebud is 20 lightyears away, and at rest relative to the Earth, and David travels at 0.85c. When David begins his journey, he is 5 years older than Alexis. When David arrives at planet Rosebud, who is older (David or Alexis) and by how much?
Chapter 37, Problem 030 Stellar system Q, moves away from us at a speed of 0.975c.
