I have a question on the pre-exam which I did not get.
Consider a spaceship that leaves Earth at event A and travels in the +x direction. It accelerates at a constant rate from rest at time t = 0 to a final speed of 4/5 at time t = 1 hour. It remains at that speed thereafter. Just as the spaceship reaches its final speed, it emits a laser signal back toward Earth, this is event B. The signal reaches Earth at event C.
(a) Show that the spacetime coordinates of event B are (t, x) = (1, 0.4) in hours.
Maybe someone can help me?
