A spaceship is in the shape of a cube which measures 493. m along each edge (in its own reference frame). If you observe the ship to have a constant velocity of 0.910 c in the x-direction (where c is the speed of light), what volume would you infer for the ship? m3

A spaceship is designed in the shape of a right triangle which is 517. m long in the x direction and 100 m long in the y direction (in its own reference frame). If you observe the ship to have a constant velocity of 0.530 c in the x direction (where c is the speed of light), what length would you measure for the side of the ship which forms the hypotenuse? m

A farm truck moves due east with a constant velocity of 8.80 m/s on a limitless, horizontal stretch of road. A boy riding on the back of the truck throws a can of soda upward (see figure below) and catches the projectile at the same location on the truck bed, but 19.0 m farther down the road. (a) In the frame of reference of the truck, at what angle to the vertical does the boy throw the can? ∘ (b) What is the initial speed of the can relative to the truck? m/s (c) What is the shape of the can's trajectory as seen by the boy? a straight line segment upward and then downward a symmetric section of a parabola opening downward An observer on the ground watches the boy throw the can and catch it. (d) In this observer's frame of reference, describe the shape of the can's path. a straight line segment upward and then downward a symmetric section of a parabola opening downward (e) In this observer's frame of reference, determine the initial velocity of the can. magnitude m/s direction ० above the horizontal eastward line
