Samir watches a 100-minute movie on his spaceship. maria's spaceshipe flies in the same direction as samir's spaceship but she observes his move to last 125 minutes and his spaceship to be 40 m long. how long does samir observe his own spaceship to be? according to an observer on earth, planet x is stationary. maria and samir depart earth on their spaceships at the same time, each flying at 0.5c. maria flies toward planet x and samir flies in the opposite direction. according to maria, her voyage to planet x takes 9 years. how many years does marias voyage take according to samir?

Identify the correct relation showing that the radius r of the orbit of a moon of a given planet can be determined from the radius r of the planet, the acceleration of gravity at the surface of the planet, and the time τ required by the moon to complete one full revolution about the planet. determine the acceleration of gravity at the surface of the planet jupiter knowing that r = 71 492 km and that t= 3.551 days and r= 670.9 × 10^3 km for its moon europa.
