2. A spaceship moving 0.80c direction away from Earth fires a missile that the spaceship measures to be moving at 0.80c perpendicular to the ship’s direction of travel. Find the velocity components and speed of the missile as measured from Earth.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Taking the direction of the spaceship as the x-axis.

Velocity of the missile as measured from the earth = (0.8cî + 0.48cj)

Speed of the missile relative to Earth = 0.93c
