Special Relativity with Three reference frames
So to find the speed, I have to use info from event 1 and 2 how they appear in frame c? then I can use v = x/t?- scienceLilly75

Special Relativity with Three reference frames
I am confused. I understand that there is no separation between frames but between events in frames. In that case, I am stuck. The only thing I know about the frame C is that event one occurs at t=0, x=0. If the events occur on the same place on the rocket, then x' also equals 0. But then that...- scienceLilly75

Special Relativity with Three reference frames
But at the beginning the time and position of the event is 0, so the left side has to be zero right? Or do I need to find spatial separation between A and B, then spatial separation between B and C?- scienceLilly75

Special Relativity with Three reference frames
Homework Statement In the laboratory frame, event 1 occurs at x = 0 light-years, t = 0 years. Event 2 occurs at x = 6 light-years, t = 10 years. In all rocket frames, event 1 also occurs at the position 0 light-years and the time 0 years. The y- and z- coordinates of both events are zero in...- scienceLilly75
