You are now in 20 years old. You are disappointed with the current situation. So, you decide to leave to the future of Earth. You plan a space journey for 5 years(go in 2.5 years and back in 2.5 years.) with a constant speed v relative to Earth. If you wish to reach the Earth after 100 years when you an 25 years old, how fast the speed, v you need to set for your spaceship? (Give your answer in 5 significant figures)

a) Suppose you decide to travel to a star 66 light-years away at a speed that tells you the distance is only 24 light-years. How many years would it take you to make the trip? Express your answer using two significant figures. b)In its own reference frame, a box has the shape of a cube 1.5 mm on a side. This box is loaded onto the flat floor of a spaceship and the spaceship then flies past us with a horizontal speed of 0.90 cc.What is the volume (m3 ) of the box as we observe it?
A severely injured Peter can only live for the next 3.5 hours. Before dying, he wants to go back to Earth which is 5 light-hours away. What should be the minimum cruise speed of the Peter's spaceship so that at least he can make it before he runs out of time? HINT: The answer is NOT 4.29x108 m/s.
A spaceship travels from the Earth to a star 13 light years away (as measured in the Earth’s frame). An astronaut on the ship says that the trip takes 16 years. What is the speed of the ship relative to the earth in m/s?

an airport worker measures the length of a runway to be Lo. a spaceship,s, flies horizontally in a straight line over the runway with a constant speed of .8c with the respect to the runway. according to the pilots wristwatch, the time of flight over the runway was 20 miu/s. the time measured by the airport clock for s to fly over the runway was Tg. the physical dimensions of s can be neglected. does the pilot measure the proper time of flight over the runway? yes/no what is the length of the runway as measured by the pilot? whats the value of Lo? whats the value of tg?
