Answer:

(a) \Delta t'=1.38\mu s

(b) \Delta x'=-389.46m

Explanation:

We use Lorentz transformations, since they relate the measures of a physical magnitude obtained by two different observers, these are:

\Delta x'=\frac{\Delta x-u\Delta t}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^2}{c^2}}}\\\Delta t'=\frac{\Delta t-\frac{u\Delta x}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{u^2}{c^2}}}

Here \Delta x is the spatial separation according to O, \Delta x' is the spatial separation according to O', \Delta t is the time interval according to O, \Delta t'  is the time interval according to O', u is the relative speed between the two observers and c is the speed of light.  All we do now is write the quantities we were given, recall that 1\mu s=10^{-6}s

(a)

\Delta t'=\frac{0.48*10^{-6}s-\frac{0.97c(45m)}{c^2}}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.97c)^2}{c^2}}}\\\Delta t'=\frac{0.48*10^{-6}s-\frac{0.97(45m)}{(3*10^{8}\frac{m}{s})}}{\sqrt{1-0.97^2}}\\\Delta t'=1.38*10^-6 s=1.38\mu s

(b)

\Delta x'=\frac{45m-(0.97*3*10^8\frac{m}{s})0.48*10^{-6}s}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(0.97c)^2}{c^2}}}\\\Delta x'=-389.46m

The minus sign means that the second event is closer for one observer and the first is closer for the other.

Los ácidos nucleicos y las proteínas comprenden una red de biomacromoléculas que almacenan y transmiten información que sustenta la vida de la célula. El estudio de estos mecanismos es un campo llamado biología molecular. El desarrollo de esta ciencia siempre ha ido acompañado de avances técnicos que permiten romper barreras metodológicas para probar hipótesis novedosas. Entre los métodos disponibles para los biólogos moleculares, destacan cinco: electroforesis, secuenciación, clonación, transferencia y reacción en cadena de la polimerasa. Su impacto llega a la genética, la medicina y la biotecnología. Aquí, se revisan la relevancia histórica, los fundamentos técnicos y las tendencias actuales de estos cinco métodos esenciales. La revisión pretende ser útil tanto para estudiantes como para científicos profesionales que buscan adquirir conocimientos avanzados sobre el valor de estos métodos para investigar los mecanismos moleculares que sostienen la vida.
