A person standing on a platform finds that a train moving with velocity 0.6c takes one second to pass by him. Find (a) the length of the train as seen by the person and (b) the rest length of the train.

A person travels on a spaceship moving at a speed of 5c/13. (a) Find the time interval calculated by him between the consecutive birthday celebrations of his friend on the earth.

(a) Calculate the energy released if ²³⁸U emits an α-particle. (b) Calculate the energy to be supplied to ²³⁸U it two protons and two neutrons are to be emitted one by one. The atomic masses of ²³⁸U, ²³⁴Th and ⁴He are 238.0508 u, 234.04363 u and 4.00260 u respectively.

(Use Mass of proton m_p = 1.007276 u, Mass of `""_1^1"H"` atom = 1.007825 u, Mass of neutron m_n = 1.008665 u, Mass of electron = 0.0005486 u ≈ 511 keV/c²,1 u = 931 MeV/c².)
