An object is observed moving at 0.60 c when it explodes. In the reference frame of the object, the explosion disburses small fragments equally in all directions at speed 0.20 c. From the reference frame of the observer, the explosion appears to disburse all the fragments into a cone. Determine the angle the edge of the cone makes with the original direction of travel.

ane sets up two mirrors in her reference frame where mirror A is located on the x-axis 100 m from the origin and mirror B is located on the y-axis 100 m from the origin. She then causes a light source, which is located at the origin and emits light uniformly in all directions, to flash once at t=0. (a) As measured in Jane's inertial frame, what is the time at which the light flash reaches mirror A? (b) As...
