An alien spaceship traveling 0.600c toward Earth launches a landing craft with an advance guard of purchasing agents. The lander travels in the same direction with a velocity 0.800c relative to the spaceship. As observed on Earth, the spaceship is 0.200 light-years from Earth when the lander is launched. (a) With what velocity is the lander observed to be approaching by observers on Earth? (b) What is the distance to Earth at the time of landcr launch, as observed by the aliens on the mother ship? (c) How long does it take the lander to reach Earth as observed by the aliens on the mother ship? (d) If the lander has a mass of 4.00 105 kg, what is its kinetic energy as observed in Earths reference frame?
A spacecraft built in the shape of a sphere moves past an observer on the Earth with a speed of 0.500c. What shape does the observer measure for the spacecraft as it goes by? (a) a sphere (b) a cigar shape, elongated along the direction of motion (c) a round pillow shape, flattened along the direction of motion (d) a conical shape, pointing in the direction of motion
The identical twins Speedo and Goslo join a migration from Earth to Planet X, which is 20.0 light-years away in a reference frame in which both planets are at rest. The twins, of the same age, depart at the same time on different spacecraft. Speedos craft travels steadily at 0.950c, Goslos at 0.750c. Calculate the age difference between the twins after Goslos spacecraft lands on Planet X. Which twin is the older?
An interstellar space probe is launched from Earth. After a brief period of acceleration, it moves with a constant velocity, 70.0% of the speed of light. Its nuclear-powered batteries supply the energy to keep its data transmitter active continuously. The batteries have a lifetime of 15.0 years as measured in a rest frame. (a) How long do the batteries on the space probe last as measured by mission control on Earth? (b) How far is the probe from Earth when its batteries fail as measured by mission control? (c) How far is the probe from Earth as measured by its built-in trip odometer when its batteries fail? (d) For what total time after launch are data received from the probe by mission control? Note dial radio waves travel at the speed of light and fill the space between the probe and Earth at the time the battery fails.
The identical twins Speedo and Goslo join a migration from the Earth to Planet X, 20.0 ly away in a reference frame in which both planets are at rest. The twins, of the same age, depart at the same moment on different spacecraft. Speedos spacecraft travels steadily at 0.950c and Goslos at 0.750c. (a) Calculate the age difference between the twins after Goslos spacecraft lands on Planet X. (b) Which twin is older?
Suppose our Sun is about to explode. In an effort to escape, we depart in a spacecraft at v = 0.800c and head toward the star Tau Ceti, 12.0 ly away. When we reach the midpoint of our journey from the Earth, we see our Sun explode, and, unfortunately, at the same instant, we see Tau Ceti explode as well. (a) In the spacecrafts frame of reference, should we conclude that the two explosions occurred simultaneously? If not, which occurred first? (b) What If? In a frame of reference in which the Sun and Tau Ceti are at rest, did they explode simultaneously? If not, which exploded first?

Two planets are on a collision course, heading directly toward each other at 0.250c. A spaceship sent from one planet approaches the second at 0.750c as seen by the second planet. What is the velocity of the ship relative to the first planet?
An alarm clock is set to sound in 10.0 h. At t = 0, the clock is placed in a spaceship moving with a speed of 0.75c (relative to Earth). What distance, as determined by an Earth observer, does the spaceship travel before the alarm clock sounds?
You have been hired as an expert witness in the future by an attorney representing the driver of a spacecraft. The driver is accused of exceeding the galactic speed limit of 0.700c relative to the Earth while being chased by a galactic police spacecraft. The driver claims he is innocent, that his speed was well below that limit. You have been provided with the following data: the police spacecraft was traveling at 0.600c while chasing the driver and a technician on the police spacecraft measured the suspected spacecraft as traveling at 0.300c relative to the police spacecraft. What advice should you give the attorney?
Owen and Dina are at rest in frame S, which is moving with a speed of 0.600c with respect to frame S. They play a game of catch while Ed, at rest in frame S, watches the action (Fig. P26.45). Owen throws the ball to Dina with a speed of 0.800c (according to Owen) and their separation (measured in S) is equal to 1.80 1012 m. (a) According to Dina, how fast is the ball moving? (b) According to Dina, what time interval is required for the ball to reach her? According to Ed, (c) how far apart are Owen and Dina, and (d) how fast is the ball moving? Figure. P26.45
