A stick of length L moves past you, parallel to its length, at speed v. Let your frame be S, and the stick's frame be S'. Call the event when the front of the stick passes you Event A, and the event when the back of the stick passes you Event B.

Draw the Minkowski diagram to scale, including both frames, and putting in both events.

A train with proper length L moves at speed 4c/5 with respect to the ground. A ball is thrown from the back to the front, at speed c/3 with respect to the train. How much time does this take, and what distance does the ball cover, in: (a) The train frame? (b) The ground frame? Solve this by i. Using a velocity-addition argument, as we did in lecture. ii. Using the Lorentz transformations to go from the train frame to...

A stick is resting on a concrete step with 2 5 of its total length L hanging over the edge. A single ladybug lands on the end of the stick hanging over the edge, and the stick begins to tip. A moment later, a second, identical ladybug lands on the other end of the stick, which results in the stick coming momentarily to rest at θ = 62.1 ∘ with respect to the horizontal. If the mass of each bug...

A stick is resting on a concrete step with 2727 of its total length ?L hanging over the edge. A single ladybug lands on the end of the stick hanging over the edge, and the stick begins to tip. A moment later, a second, identical ladybug lands on the other end of the stick, which results in the stick coming momentarily to rest at ?=41.3∘θ=41.3∘ with respect to the horizontal, as shown in the figure. If the mass of each...

A stick is resting on a concrete step with 1/4 of its total length L hanging over the edge. A single ladybug lands on the end of the stick hanging over the edge, and the stick begins to tip. A moment later, a second, identical ladybug lands on the other end of the stick, which results in the stick coming momentarily to rest at θ=67.3∘ with respect to the horizontal, as shown in the figure.

A uniform stick, mass m and length l, is placed in a horizontal plane by hanging it from a massless string attached to the center. A ball of mass M moving with speed V in the plane of the stick. The ball strikes the stick at a distance d from the center. the collision is elastic. Find the resulting translational and rotational speeds of the stick and the resulting speed of the ball. show that the relative speed of the...

Let U and V be vector spaces, and let L(V,U) be the set of all linear transformations from V to U. Let T_1 and T_2 be in L(V,U),v be in V, and x a real number. Define vector addition in L(V,U) by (T_1+T_2)(v)=T_1(v)+T_2(v) , and define scalar multiplication of linear maps as (xT)(v)=xT(v). Show that under these operations, L(V,U) is a vector space.
