Consider two spaceships moving relative to each other. The relative velocity of each spaceship is the velocity the other spaceship sees it moving at. Both relative velocities are equal in magnitude (equal speeds) but opposite in direction. If one spaceship fires a missile at 0.75c at the other spaceship as it approaches and the other spaceship observes the missile approaching it at 0.96c, what is the ratio of the first spaceship's relative velocity to the speed of light? Assume the velocity...
Duck Dodgers hops in his spaceship and leaves the Earth at a constant velocity of 0.6c in an attempt to reach the newly discovered Planet X before aliens from Mars. a) Mission control on Earth sends an encoded message (a flashing beacon) to Duck Dodgers warning him about the progress of the Martian ship. The light pulses travel at a speed c relative to observers on the Earth. How fast are the pulses traveling relative to Duck Dodgers? b) Duck...
