According to you, event 1 occurs at Xj = 33.0 m and tj = 22.0 ns, and event 2 occurs at X2 = 53.0 m and t2 = 62.0 ns. According to your measurements, what is the length of (a) meter stick 1, (b) meter stick 2, and (c) meter stick 3? According to Bullwinkle, what are (d) the spatial separation and (e) the temporal separation between events 1 and 2, and (f) which event occurs first?
