Chapter 23.1, Problem 23.1QQ

The 1st image is my doubt which is based on time dilation, but it's based on another problem which I'm sending as the 2nd image.
You are traveling in a spaceship, headed towards Earth, and you hold a ball at arm's. When you let go of the ball, it falls to the floor as shown in the picture. What does this observation tell you about the acceleration of the spaceship?
If you shine a white light out of the window of the spaceship towards Earth, at what speed will the light appear to travel and why?
What colour will the light appear to be to observers on Earth, and why?
In the “Experiment 1” animation:
A) In the frame of the ground what is the order in which light reaches the observers?B) In the frame of the ground what is the order in which light reaches the observers asseen by an observer at M?C) In the frame of the ground what is the order in which light reaches the observers asseen by an observer at A?

- You are driving on a freeway at a relativistic speed. Straight ahead of you, a technician standing on the ground turns on a searchlight and a beam of light moves exactly vertically upward, as seen by the technician. As you observe the beam of light, you measure the magnitude of the vertical component of its velocity as (a) equal to c, (b) greater than c, or (c) less than c. If the technician aims the searchlight directly at you instead of upward, you measure the magnitude of the horizontal component of its velocity as (d) equal to c, (e) greater than c, or (f) less than c.arrow_forwardYour friend and you fly in identically constructed spacecrafts. She overtakes you at a constant speed.
