In the Theory of Relativity the length of an object depends

In the Theory of Relativity the length of an object depends on how fast it is moving its velocity v with respect to an observer If an object is 18 meters long when it is at rest the function L v which gives its length is L v 18 1 where c is the speed of light Calculate the length of this object for velocities which are the following percentages of c L 0 3c L 0 5c L 0 7c v c meters meters meters
