Chapter 37, Problem 16P

Observer S reports that an event occurred on the x axis of his reference frame at x = 3.00 × 10⁸ m at time t = 2.50 s. Observer S' and her frame are moving in the positive direction of the x axis at a speed of 0.400c. Further, x = x' = 0 at t = t' = 0. What are the (a) spatial and (b) temporal coordinate of the event according to S'? If S' were, instead, moving in the negative direction of the x axis, what would be the (c) spatial and (d) temporal coordinate of the event according to S'?
