It is said that Einstein, in his teenage years, asked the question, What would I see in a mirror if I carried it in my hands and ran at the speed of light? How would you answer this question?
A beam of light is moving directly along the spaceship, but through an old-fashioned fiber optic cable. The speed of light in the cable is 0.6 times the speed of light in a vacuum. The spaceship is moving at 0.8 times the speed of light. What speed do you observe from the ground?

A man, 1.81 m tall is walking on a horizontal street at 3.7 kph away from a vertical street light, 3.7 m high. How fast (kph) is the tip of his shadow moving relative to the top of the street light when he is 2 m from the base of the street light? Express your answer in 1 decimal place.
It takes light from the Sun 6.00 minutes to reach Venus. How far away is the planet from the Sun (in km)? The speed of light, c, is 3 ✕ 105 km/s.
The speed of light is exactly e = 299792458 m - s1. (Also written 299, 792, 458 m - s-1 or 2.99792458 × 10°m - s1. This is exact because it is the definition of the metre.) It takes light 8.3 minutes to get from the sun to the earth. Assuming that the earth's orbit is exactly circular (an approximation) and that its speed is constant, and using the data in this question, calculate the speed of the earth in its orbit around the sun in km · hr. Practise writing your conversions clearly using the 'multiply by 1' technique. Speed of the earth =_ km per hour. Write your answer in standard (not scientific) notation, i.e. without using exponents, and without using commas. However, remember to use the correct number of significant figures. (Hint: which is the least precise of the given data?) Do not include units.
