Question

recall from this chapter,that the factor gamma governs both time dilation and length contraction,where

when you multiply the time in moving frame  by gamma,you get the longer(dilated) time in fixed fame.when you divide the length in moving frame by gamma,you get the shorter(contracted) length in your fixed frame.

Consider a high-speed rocket ship equipped with a flashing light source. If the frequency of flashes seen on an approaching ship is twice what it was when the ship was a fixed distance away, by how much is the period (time interval between flashes) changed? Is this period constant for a constant relative speed? For accelerated motion? Defend your answer.
