Consider two events, A and B. In an inertial reference frame S, event A occurs at a time deltaT after event B, and event A occurs as positive x=0 and event B at x=L. From another reference frame S', it was observed that events A and B occur simultaneously. Given this information, what is the relative velocity of S' to S? Express answer in terms of the speed of light c, and the parameters given in the problem. (If you can include a spacetime diagram, that would be very helpful to better understand how you got the answer).

Thank you in advance!!
