Bob is moving to the right (positive x direction) in his spaceship at a velocity v (such that the value of the Lorentz factor is 2), and Alice is observing him. Each has their own lattice of clocks and measuring systems, which can be represented in two spacetime diagrams on the same plot, one for Bob’s frame of reference and one for Alice’s. Assume that the axes on Alice’s plot are at right angles to each other (horizontal and vertical) and Bob’s are at different but appropriate angles. If Alice observes a set of three flash bulbs at positions xA = 9, 13, and 24, and they all flash at tA = 7.3, which flash would occur first in Bob’s frame of reference?

Imagine that Bob, at a spaceport, observes Alice flying by to the right in her spaceship at a velocity of 0.9c. When Alice’s ship had been previously docked at the spaceport, Alice had measured its length as 100 meters. Alice has five clocks on her spaceship: one in front (at 0 meters), one at 25 meters, one at 50 meters, one at 75 meters, and one at the rear at 100 meters. All the clocks are synchronized in Alice’s frame of reference. When Alice flies by Bob, Bob uses his lattice of synchronized clocks to take simultaneous photos of Alice’s clocks (simultaneous in Bob’s frame of reference). If Bob’s photos show that Alice’s front clock reads t = 0 at that instant, what equation below would give the time that the clock at 50 meters has in the photos?
