If relativistic effects are to be less than 3%, then 纬 must be less than 1.03. At what relative velocity is 纬 = 1.03?
Short Answer
The relative velocity v=0.240c.

Is the relativistic Doppler effect consistent with the classical Doppler effect in the respect that\({{\rm{\lambda }}_{{\rm{obs}}}}\)is larger for motion away?
To whom does an object seem greater in length, an observer moving with the object or an observer moving relative to the object? Which observer measures the object鈥檚 proper length?
A neutron lives 900 s when at rest relative to an observer. How fast is the neutron moving relative to an observer who measures its life span to be 2065s?
Consider a thought experiment. You place an expanded balloon of air on weighing scales outside in the early morning. The balloon stays on the scales and you are able to measure changes in its mass. Does the mass of the balloon change as the day progresses? Discuss the difficulties in carrying out this experiment.
