- Calculate, for the judge, how fast you were going in miles per hour when you ran the red light because it appeared Doppler-shifted green to you. Take red light to have a wavelength of 650 nm and green to have a wavelength of 550 nm.arrow_forwardSuppose an astronaut travels to a star 10 lightyears away at a significant fraction of the speed of light (for example, v=0.99c) and returns. Assume negligible amount of time is spent at the destination. Does this round-trip journey take less than, equal to, or more than 20 years as observed by an Earth-based observer? Does this round-trip journey take less than, equal to, or more than 20 years as observed by the astronaut?arrow_forwardThe pilot of a space ship shines a laser pointer from the back of the ship to the front. The laser travels at the speed of light 300,000 km/s with respect to the ship, which is itself moving at 100,000 km/s. What will be the speed of the laser beam according to an observer at rest outside the ship? Express your answer in km/sarrow_forward

Immediately upon arrival the space ship sends a radio signal back to Earth. i. For those who travelled on the space ship, what is the date when the signal is sent? ii. For those on the Earth, what is the date when the signal is received?arrow_forwardA star is observed to move away from us at a speed of 2.9km/s. How far is the star ? Express your answer in light years.arrow_forwardConsider a space vehicle that has a length of 15.5 meters when at rest. This space vehicle zooms past you with a speed of 0.88c. Find the length of the space vehicle as it appears to you as it zooms past.arrow_forward
