Problem A Martian leaves Mars in aspaceshipthat is heading to Venus. On the way, the spaceship passesearthwith a speed v = 0.85c relative to it.Assumethat the three planets do not move relative to each otherduring thetrip. The distance between Mars and Venus is1.20 Ã 1011m, as measured by a personon earth.
(a) What does the Martian measure forthedistance between Mars and Venus?
L= m
(b) What is the time of the trip (in seconds)asmeasured by the Martian?
Ît0= s
