    The document instructs the reader to translate each of the proposed exercises into Spanish and submit the solved exercises on exam sheets. It states that each exercise must have its respective statement, otherwise it will not be considered. It then lists 10 physics exercises involving concepts like velocity, momentum, kinetic energy, and spacetime in relativity.

    TRADUZCA A ESPAÑOL CADA UNO DE LOS EJERCICIOS PROPUESTOS Y ENTREGUELOS RESUELTOS

    EN HOJAS DE EXAMEN. CADA EJERCICIO DEBE TENER SU RESPECTIVO ENUNCIADO SIN ELLO NO
    SERÁ TENIDO EN CUENTA.

    1. A swimmer wants to swim straight across a river with current flowing at a speed of
    V1=0.350 m/s. If the swimmer swims in still water with speed V2=1.25 m/s, at what
    angle should the swimmer point upstream from the shore, and at what speed will
    the swimmer swim across the river?

    2. Astronomers discover a planet orbiting around a star similar to our sun that is 20
    lightyears away. How fast must a rocket ship go if the round trip is to take no longer
    than 40 years in time for the astronauts aboard? How much time Will the trip take
    as measured on Earth?

    3. Two systems K and K’ synchronize their clocks at t = t’ = 0 when their origins are
    aligned as system K’ passes by system K along the x axis at relative speed 0.8c. At
    time t = 3 ns, Frank (in system K) shoots a proton gun having proton speeds of 0.98c
    along his x axis. The protons leave the gun at x = 1 m and arrive at a target 120 m
    away. Determine the event coordinates (x, t) of the gun firing and of the protons
    arriving as measured by observers in both systems K and K´.

    4. Three galaxies are aligned along an axis in the order A, B, C. An observer in galaxy B
    is in the middle and observes that galaxies A and C are moving in opposite directions
    away from him, both with speeds 0.60c. ¿What is the speed of galaxies B and C as
    observed by someone in galaxy A?

    5. Calculate the energy needed to accelerate a spaceship of mass 10,000 kg to a speed


    of 0.3c for intergalactic space exploration. Compare this with a projected annual
    energy usage on Earth of 1021 J.

    6. Show that the following form of Newton’s second law satisfies the Lorentz
    transformation. Assume the force is parallel to the velocity.

    7. An electron has a total energy that is 250 times its rest energy. Determine its (a)
    kinetic energy, (b) speed, and (c) momentum.

    8. 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 by Earth.

    9. A proton moves with a speed of 0.90c. Find the speed of an electron that has (a) the
    same momentum as the proton, and (b) the same kinetic energy.

    10. Frank and Mary are twins, and Mary wants to travel to our nearest star system,
    Alpha Centauri (4.30 lightyears away). Mary leaves on her 30th birthday and intends
    to return to Earth on her 52nd birthday. (a) Assuming her spaceship returns from
    Alpha Centauri without stopping, how fast must her spaceship travel? (b) How old
    will Frank be when she returns?
