Module 29: Invariants Problem Set 2

Two coordinate systems are moving relative to one another with the usual provision that their spatial origins coincide at time 00 in each frame. An observer in the first frame reports that a firecracker exploded at (t,x)=(17,11)(t,x)=(17,11) in units where c=1c=1. An observer in the second frame claims that the firecracker exploded at (12,7)(12,7).
