Thanks. So what are the times on object A's clock and on C's clock when object A arrives at C?

Observer D is traveling ahead of object A at 0.5c and has a clock in sync with object A. According to observer D what is the time on the C clock and observer D's clock when the microwave arrives?

So the clocks read the same? Both must read 1.2s then

There is just one event - the arrival of the microwave so does that mean; Clock C = 1.3s, Clock D = 0.75s

The time interval as seen from observer D or is this incorrect?

The time interval for time dilation

Does that mean ## \Delta T = 1.3/ \sqrt(1-0.5^2) ## for C's clock and ## \Delta T = 0.75/ \sqrt(1-0.5^2) ## for D's clock ??

Thank you. So when observer D is traveling at 0.5c and has a clock in sync with object A. According to observer D what is the time on the B-C clock and observer D's clock when the microwave arrives? Is this just delta T0 = 1.3 sqrt(1-0.5^2) for the B-C clock and T0 = 0.75 sqrt(1-0.5^2)?

Unless they are t=0.75s and x=0.75??

These are my thoughts. The microwave is traveling at speed c which I've used in the lorentz factor to be undefined.

Yes, I'm not sure how to express in a division of zero in the lorentz factor.

So the transformation of the events I have.. 1. t' = 0, x'=0 2. t' = 0, x' = 0 3. x' = 0, t' = 2.25s Are these correct?

So are the events correct? (in B, C system) Yes transform into A's frame.

The three events; t = 0s, x=0 t=1.3s, x=1.3 light seconds t=2.6s, 1.3 light seconds
