A ladder 5.30 m long leans against a wall inside a spaceship. From the point of view of a person on the ship, the top of the ladder is 4.87 m above the floor. The spaceship moves past the Earth with a speed of 0.95c in a direction parallel to the floor of the ship. What is the length of the ladder as seen by an observer on Earth
