1) The Lorentz transformation equations have x and t and x' and t'. Why no v and v'? [6 points] 2) The Doppler effect involves two speeds, and c. The Doppler formula for sound involves three speeds (source, listener, and sound). Why a different number? [6 points] 3) It is possible for the electron beam in a television picture tube to move across the screen at a speed faster than the speed of light. Why does this not contradict special relativity?
