The proper length of one spaceship is three times that of another. The two spaceships are traveling in the same direction and, while both are passing overhead, an Earth observer measures the two spaceships to have the same length. If the slower spaceship is moving with a speed of 0.31c, determine the speed of the faster spaceship. c

A spacecraft of proper length Lo = 48.0 m is moving in the +x direction at a constant Lorentz factor y = 2.20 relative to an inertial frame, the Earth frame. The spacecraft is aligned with the direction of motion. The tip of the spacecraft crosses the origin (x = 0) at tA = 0 in the Earth frame and t'A = 0 in the frame of the moving spacecraft. a.

general relativity
A spaceship of proper length Lp = 350 m
moves past a transmitting station at a speed of 0.77c.
(The transmitting station broadcasts signals that travel at the
speed of light.) A clock is attached to the nose of the spaceship
and a second clock is attached to the transmitting station. The
instant that the nose of the spaceship passes the transmitter, the
clock attached to the transmitter and the clock attached to the
nose of the spaceship...

A spaceship of proper length Lp = 400 m moves past a transmitting station at a speed of 0.61c. (The transmitting station broadcasts signals at the speed of light) A clock is attached to the nose of the spaceship and a second clock is attached to the transmitting station. The instant that the nose of the spaceship passes the transmitter, clocks at the transmitter and in the nose of the spaceship are set to zero. The instant that the tail...

A spaceship is 1600 m long when it is at rest. When it is traveling at a certain constant speed its length is measured by external observers and it is found to be 505 m. What is the speed of the spaceship in terms of the speed of light? 2.84*10^8 Hints: Objects moving at relativistic speeds shrink in the direction of motion. This is the so called Lorentz contraction. What is the relationship between the speed of the spaceship, its...
