Suppose the primed and laboratory observers want to measure the length of a rod that rests on the ground horizontally in the space between the helicopter and the tower (Fig. 39.8B). To derive the length transformation L = L (Eq. 39.5), we had to assume that the positions of the two ends were determined simultaneously. What happens to the length transformation equation if both observers measure the end below the helicopter at one time t1 and the other end at a later time t2?

Quite apart from effects due to Earth’s rotational and orbital motions, a laboratory reference frame is not strictly an inertial frame because a particle at rest there will not, in general, remain at rest; it will fall. Often, however, events happen so quickly that we can ignore the gravitational acceleration and treat the frame as inertial. Consider, for example, an electron of speed v =0.992c, projected horizontally into a laboratory test chamber and moving through a distance of 20 cm. (a) How long would that take, and (b) how far would the electron fall during this interval? (c) What can you conclude about the suitability of the laboratory as an inertial frame in this case?
Suppose an astronaut, travels so fast that γ = 30.00 . (a) She travels from the Earth to the nearest star system, Alpha Centauri, 4.300 light years (ly) away as measured by an Earthbound observer. How far apart are the Earth and Alpha Centauri as measured by the astronaut? (b) In terms of c , what is her velocity relative to the Earth? You may neglect the motion of the Earth relative to the Sun.
Albert Einstein is pondering how to write his (soonto-be-famous) equation. He knows that energy E is a function of mass m and the speed of light c, but he doesn't know the functional relationship (E = m2c? E = mc4?). Pretend that Albert knows nothing about dimensional analysis, but since you are taking a fluid mechanics class, you help Albert come up with his equation. Use the step-by-step method of repeating variables to generate a dimensionless relationship between these parameters, showing all of your work. Compare this to Einstein's famous equation—does dimensional analysis give you the correct form of the equation?

The cosmic rays of highest energy are protons that have kinetic energy on the order of 1013 MeV. (a) From the point of view of the proton, how many kilometers across is the galaxy? (b) How long would it take a proton of this energy to travel across the Milky Way galaxy, having a diameter ~ 105 light-years, as measured in the proton’s frame?
A conductor carrying a current in a magnetic field experiences a force given by the Lorentz equation. It might be written q v * B where the velocity and the magnetic fields are vectors and their product is a vector cross product. In terms of current the charge is carried through a distance L in time t, and the current is the charge per time so the force is I L * B where again the vector cross product comes in and the current is I. How must the wire be oriented in the magnetic field so that it does not experience a force at all? There is no direction in which the force is zero. The wire has to be parallel to the field with the current going opposite to the field. The wire has to be parallel to the field with the current going in either direction in the wire. The wire has to be perpendicular to the field
a)Calculate the interval ∆s2 between two events with coordinates (x1 = 50 m, y1 = 0, z1 = 0,t1 = 1 µs) and (x2 = 120 m, y2 = 0, z2 = 0, t2 = 1.2 µs) in an inertial frame S.b) Now transform the coordinates of the events into the S' frame, which is travelling at 0.6calong the x-axis in a positive direction with respect to the frame S. Hence verify that thespacetime interval is invariant.

Earth astronomers measure that two novas (sudden brightening of a star) occur simultaneously, one in the constellation Orion and the other in the constellation Lyra. Each is 2.5×103c·y from Earth, but in opposite directions. Observers in aspacecraft flying at 1000 km/h on a line from Orion to Lyra measure one nova to occurbefore the other. (a) Which nova occurs first? (b) How much time separates the twonovas? Assume Earth is an inertial reference frame.
