Assume that the speed of light in a vacuum has the hypothetical value of 7.88m/s. In a baseball game, a runner runs at a constant velocity from third base to home plate in 2.5 s, according to the runner. Also according to the runner, the distance covered is 15m. What is the distance covered, according to the catcher who is standing at home plate?
