Which of the following statements are IMPOSSIBLE? Choose all that apply. 1 Therocket's speed was measured to be 1.61c.
The rocket's rest length is 530 m. Anobserver flying by measured the rocket to be 202 mlong.
A rocket flying towards the Sun at0.8c measured the speed of the photons (particles oflight) emitted by the Sun to be 0.94c.
An inertial reference frame had anacceleration of 0 m/s2.
The proper time interval between twoevents was measured to be 206 s. The time interval between the sametwo events (as measured by an observer not in the proper frame) was365 s. 1 Therocket's speed was measured to be 1.61c.

Explanation / Answer

The rocket's speed wasmeasured to be 1.61c.
A rocket flying towards theSun at 0.8c measured the speed of the photons (particlesof light) emitted by the Sun to be0.94c.
The proper time intervalbetween two events was measured to be 206 s. The time intervalbetween the same two events (as measured by an observer not in theproper frame) was 365 s.
