Get started for freeAccording Anna, on Earth, Bob is on a spaceship moving at 0.8c toward Earth, and Carl, a little farther out. is on a spaceship moving at 0.9c toward Earth. (a) According to Bob, how fast and in what direction is Carl moving relative to himself (Bob)? (b) According to Bob, how fast is Carl moving relative to Earth?
The diagram shows Bob's view of the passing of two identical spaceship. Anna's and his own, where . The length of either spaceship in its rest frame is . What are the readings on Anna', two unlabelled clocks?
What is the ratio of the relativistically correct expression for momentum to the classical expression? Under what condition does the deviation become significant?
Refer to Figure 2.18. (a) How long is a spaceship? (b) At what speed do the ships move relative to one another? (c) Show that Anna’s times are in accord with the Lorentz transformation equations. (d) Sketch a set of diagrams showing Anna’s complementary view of the passing of the ships. Include times in both frames.
If it is fundamental to nature that a given mass has a critical radius at which something extraordinary happens (i.e., a black hole forms), we might guess that this radius should depend only on mass and fundamental constants of nature. Assuming that depends only on M, G, and c, show that dimensional analysis gives the equation for the Schwarzschild radius to within a multiplicative constant.
