the spacecraft traveling at 0.99c continues on to space station positioned 1.5x10^9km from earth(according to earth measurements). how many hours, as measured on earth and as measured on the spaceship of food and air would the astronauts in the spacecraft need if the continue at a speed of 0.99c need to get there? 1. how far would the astronauts on the moving space ship think the distance from earth to the space station was? 2.suppose a light beam from earth passes by the spaceship, how fast would the astronauts think the light beam is traveling? 3. suppose the spaceship has headlights like a car and that the light made by the headlights can be seen on earth. if we on earth measure the speed of the light made by the lights on front of a spaceship traveling at 0.99c what would the speed of the light be?

Imagine a spaceship traveling at a constant speed through outer space. The length of the ship, as measured by a traveler aboard the ship, is 30.8 m. An observer on Earth, however, sees the ship as contracted by 19.7 cm along the direction of motion. What is the speed of the spaceship with respect to the Earth? (Express the speed as a fraction of c, the speed of light in a vacuum.) v c =
One of the primary goals of the Kepler space telescope is to search for Earth-like planets. Data gathered by the telescope indicates the existence of one such planet named Boralis orbiting a star 120 ly from our solar system. Consider an interstellar spaceship leaving Earth to travel to Boralis. The ship can reach 0.70c almost instantly and can also decelerate almost instantly. The ship is 175 m long in its reference frame. (a) What is the length of the moving...

A spaceship is moving past Earth at 0.99c. The spaceship fires two lasers. Laser A is in the same direction it is traveling, and Laser B is in the opposite direction. How fast will the light from each laser be traveling according to an observer on Earth? Select one: a. The light from Laser A will be traveling at 1.99c, the light from Laser B at 0.010 b. The light from Laser A will be traveling at c, the light...
A space probe is to travel from Earth to a refueling station 5.05 ly away. At what speed must the probe travel in order for the Earth–station distance to be 2.45 ly, when measured in the reference frame of the probe? Express your answer as a multiple of c, the speed of light in a perfect vacuum. c
A 1500kg space ship (including fuel) is travelling through space at 25m/s[away from Earth) To gain a little more speed, the rocket expels 400kg of fuel out the back of the ship at 40.5m/s[toward the Earth] The speed of the ejected fuel is measured relative to the space ship. 17. By the time all of the 400kg of fuel has been ejected, what will be the new speed of the spaceship?
You are an observer in a 100-m long spacecraft traveling from the earth to the moon at 0.8c. (a) What is the proper length of the spacecraft? (b) For a proper time interval of 1 sec., the relativistic time interval for the spacecraft measured from the earth reference frame would be: (c) Time dilation does not apply to all time-dependent physical and biological processes. T/F? (d) What is the relativistic length, DL measured from the reference frame of earth? (e)...
What angle would the axis of a polarizing filter need to make with the direction of polarized light of intensity 1.80 kW/m2 to reduce the intensity to 30.0 W/m2? 88.5 One of the primary goals of the Kepler space telescope is to search for Earth-like planets. Data gathered by the telescope indicates the existence of one such planet named Boralis orbiting a star 115 ly from our solar system. Consider an interstellar spaceship leaving Earth to travel to Boralis. The...

A spaceship is traveling through deep space towards a space station and needs to make a course correction to go around a nebula. The captain orders the ship to travel 1.9.106 kilometers before turning 70 and traveling 1.7.106 kilometers before assuming the path towards the space station. If the captain had not ordered a course correction, what would have been the magnitude and direction of the path of the spaceship if...
