<p>Physics problem and I keep messing up =(</p>
<p>A meter stick moves parallel to its axis with a speed of .73c to you.</p>
<p>Thus, length is ~0.68344711</p>
<p>How long does it take for the stick to pass you?</p>
<p>I originally divided the length perceived by the speed of light, but it came out wrong.</p>
<p>Any ideas?</p>
<p>Doh. I just realized that I divided by c, not by the speed of the object... (.73c)</p>
<p>woopsie! Delete this thread =D</p>
