A rocket leaves a space station in the positive-x direction and a laser-produced beam of light is sent out from the space station in the positive-y direction i.e. the rocket and the light beam leave the space station along perpendicular paths. Measured relative to the space station, the rocket moves at 0.6c. What is the velocity and speed of the light beam as observed by an observer in the rocket? *Please do not just answer with the speed of light, please do the work for the problem.

A. A rocket is travelling in space with a speed of 0.6c away from the origin along the negative x-axis. A second rocket passes by the first. The second rocket has speed 0.6c, heading in a direction in the x-y plane at an angle of 40° above the positive x-axis. Find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the second rocket as measured in the rest frame of the first rocket.

The average lifetime of mu-mesons with a speed of 0.95c is measured to be 6 times 10^-6 s. Compute the average lifetime of mu-mesons in a system in which they are at rest. Pions have a half-life of 1.8 times 10^-8 s. A pion beam leaves a particle accelerator at a speed of 0.8c. What is the expected distance over which half of the pions should decay classically? Relativistically? Rocket A travels to the right and rocket B travels to...

A train is moving at a speed of 0.6c along the positive x-direction (don't worry about the unrealistic numerical values). A taxi is chasing the train at a speed of 0.4c along the positive x-direction. Both speeds are measured relative to the train station, which is at rest. (a) Use the velocity transformation formula to find the speed of the taxi, as measured by a passenger on the train. (1) Use the velocity transformation formula to find the speed of...
