Two events, one in position and the other in position occur
simultaneously in system S. (a) Will these events appear simultaneous in a system
S ’that moves at constant speed with respect to S? (b) If not, what is the interval of
time between these two events from the point of view of an observer in S ’?

Two events observed in a frame of reference ? have positions and times given by (?1, ?1) and (?2, ?2), respectively. a) Frame ?′ moves along the ?-axis just fast enough that the two events occur at the same position in ?′. Show that in ?′, the time interval between the two events is given by ′ √ 2 Δ?2 Δ?= (Δ?)−(?), where Δ? = ?2 − ?1 and Δ? = ?2 − ?1. Note that this shows that if...

In a clown's frame, two events occur at t=0, one at x=6m and another at the origin. Show that in inertial frames moving on the clown's x-axis, the two events are not simultaneous and that in fact the time difference between the two can range from negative infinity to positive infinity.

Two events occur simultaneously in the market for California wine: Event 1: The price of glass wine bottles falls because strict government regulations on anti-shatter glass containers are abolished by Congress. Event 2: The price of cheese increases. Using demand and supply analysis predict what is likely to happen to the equilibrium price of California wine and the equilibrium quantity of California wine. a) Demand for California wine increases and supply of California wine increases, and the impact of these...

Keilah, in reference frame S, measures two events to be simultaneous. Event A occurs at the point (43.0 m, 0, 0) at the instant 9:00:00 Universal time on January 15, 2013. Event B occurs at the point (140 m, 0, 0) at the same moment. Torrey, moving past with a velocity of 0.750cî, also observes the two events. In her reference frame S', which event occurred first? event A event B Correct: Your answer is correct. What time interval elapsed...

Two events are observed by inertial observer Stampy to occur a spatial distance of 15 c·s apart with the spatial coordinate of the second larger than the spatial coordinate of the first. Stampy also determines that the second event occurred 17 s after the first. According to inertial observer Philip moving along Stampy’s +x axis at unknown velocity v, the second event occurs 10 s after the first. (1 c·s = 1 light-second = unit of distance.) a) Given Philip...

The market for eggs is at equilibrium. Consider two events that occur simultaneously; Scientists discover that eating eggs causes cancer and farmers develop new technology to improve egg production. Describe how these two events impact the market for eggs. Be specific about which curve (or curves) shifts and in what direction. What is the happens to the equilibrium price and quantity in the market for eggs?

Two observers agree to test time dilation. They use identical clocks, and one observer in frame S’ moves with speed v=0.8c relative (along +x-axis) to the other observer in frame S. When their origins coincide they start their clocks. They agree to send a signal when each of their clocks reads 90min and to send a confirmation signal when each receives the other’s signal. (a) At what time does the observer in S receive the first signal from the observer...

Observer S detects two flashes of light. A big flash occurs at x1 = 1020 m and, 4.34 μs later, a small flash occurs at x2 = 690 m. As detected by observer S', the two flashes occur at a single coordinate x'. (a) What is the speed parameter of S', and (b) is S' moving in the positive or negative direction of the x-axis? To S', (c) which flash occurs first and (d) what is the time interval between...

in an inertial frame, two events E1 and E2 are separated by a distance 6 m in the x-direction. E1 occurs 4.0 s before event E2. An observer in inertial frame S' moving in the x-direction relative to frame S observes the events at the same location. what time interval does frane S' observe between the events?
