You’re standing on an asteroid when you see your best friend rocketing by in her new spaceship. As she goes by, you notice that the front and rear of her ship coincide exactly with the 400-m-diameter of another nearby asteroid that is stationary with respect to you. However, you happen to know that your friend’s spaceship measured 500 m long in the showroom. What is your friend’s speed relative to you?

1. Taking north as positive and south as negative for all reference frames, suppose Mayor Adams is riding a southbound train to New York City traveling at 40 m/s relative to the ground, while Governor Hochul is riding a northbound train to Albany at 33 m/s relative to the ground. A) What is the velocity of Mayor Adams in Governor Hochul's reference frame (i.e. in the reference frame where Governor Hochul isn't moving)? B) What is the velocity of Governor Hochul in Mayor Adams reference frame? C) To his surprise Mayor Adams observes a groundhog running along the aisle towards the back of the train with a speed of 2 m/s relative to the train. What is the velocity of the groundhog in Governor Hochul's reference frame? D) What is the groundhog's velocity in the reference frame of someone standing at the train station? E) What is its velocity in Mayor Adams's reference frame? F) What is its velocity in the groundhog's frame? 30 10 ft. 5 ft. 15 ft.
1. Two atomic clocks are synchronized. One is placed on a satellite, which orbits around the earth at high speed for a whole year. The other is placed in a lab and remains at rest, with respect to the earth. You may assume that both clocks can measure time accurately to many significant digits. a. Will the two clocks still be synchronized after one year? Explain your reasoning. b. Imagine that the speed of light was much slower than its actual value. How would the results of this experiment change if the speed of light was only twice the average speed of the satellite? Explain your reasoning, using a calculation.
The 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. There exists a frame in which these events occur at the same time. Find the velocity of this frame with respect to S. b. What is the value of t at which both events occur in the new frame?
