PART 1: A train moves with constant velocity down a straight track that passes through a tunnel. When the train is at rest with respect to the tunnel, the train is exactly the same length as the tunnel. However, the train in this case is moving relative to the tunnel at nearly the speed of light. The engineer on the train says: “The tunnel is Lorentz-contracted and is shorter than the train; therefore at no time can the train be...
