I was asked this today, and I cannot picture an answer. Say you had a long bar in a vacuum, billions of miles long. If a force was applied lengthwise on one end, would the other end immediately respond? Would reference frames matter in this instance? I know information cannot travel faster than the speed of light, and I have a basic understanding of special relatively, but i cannot picture what would happen in this case...
