Chapter 29, Problem 42PCE

Predict/Calculate Two rocket ships are racing toward Earth, as shown in Figure 29-34 Ship A is in the lead, approaching the Earth at 0.80c and separating from ship B with a relative speed of 0.50c. (a) As seen from Earth, what is the speed, u, of ship B? (b) If ship A increases its speed by 0.10c relative to the Earth, does the relative speed between ship A and ship B increase by 0.10c, by more than 0.10c, or by less than 0.10c? Explain (c) Find the relative speed between ships A and B for the situation described in part (b).

An electromagnetic wave is traveling through vacuum in the positive x direction. Its electric field vector is given by E=E0sin⁡(kx−ωt)j^,where j^ is the unit vector in the y direction. If B0 is the amplitude of the magnetic field vector, find the complete expression for the magnetic field vector B→ of the wave. What is the Poynting vector S(x,t), that is, the power per unit area associated with the electromagnetic wave described in the problem introduction? Give your answer in terms of some or all of the variables E0, B0, k, x, ω, t, and μ0. Specify the direction of the Poynting vector using the unit vectors i^, j^, and k^ as appropriate. Please explain all steps
