What approximations or simplifying assumptions must you make in these calculations? (note: some of these choices are false because they are wrong physics! ) entry field with incorrect answer treat mars as though it were spherically symmetric. ignore the effects of the sun, which alters the gravitational force that one object exerts on another. treat the humans as though they were points or uniform-density spheres. use the same gravitational constant in (a) and (b) despite its dependence on the size of the masses.

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?
