Space pilot Mavis zips past Stanley at a constant speed relative to him of 0.800c. Mavis and Stanley start timers at zero when the front of Mavis ship is directly above Stanley. When Mavis reads 5.00 s on her timer, she turns on a bright light under the front of her spaceship. (a) Use the Lorentz coordinate transformations to calculate x and tas measured by Stanley for the event of turning the light. (b) Use the time dilation formula to calculate the time interval between the two events (the front of the spaceship passing overhead and turning on the light) as measured by Stanley. Compare to the value of t you calculated in part (a). (c) Multiply the time interval by Mavis speed, both as measured by Stanley, to calculate the distance she has traveled as measured by him when the light turns on. Compare to the value of x you calculated in part (a).

i had the same answer and put c. deflect randomly in multiple directions.   i looked it up on google and what i found was this;

scattering of light: by small particles and molecules in the atmosphere. different from reflection, where radiation is deflected in one direction, some particles and molecules found in the atmosphere have the ability to scatter solar radiation in all directions.

i know it's kinda annoying when you are just given a google article but this is why i think it is c.   i will try to let you know if i got it right.

the best type of safety net in hard times is mortgage

mortgage is the part of wealth, property or any personal thing that can be kept with a lender to lend someone money in hard times. the lender puts a condition that if the borrower did not give the loan in return within the specific period of time then the borrower's property would become the property of lender. this in hard times because if the loan is taken then it needs to be returned and this might happen that no one is willing to you in giving loan, therefore mortgage can be in the case if no one is willing to give loan.
