Physics

Captin Kirk has been forced to take the Enterprise to the centerof the galaxy, which is approximately 26000 light-years from theEarth, but the warp drive is broken so that the ship will belimited to speeds loss than that of light.

1. what force would it take to accelerate such a mass at1.0g(9.8m/s^2) to its final velocity , and how long would this take, starting from v=0?

2. what would the wavelength, frequency, and color of gamma-rayphotons emitted by the ship headed back towards the Earth look likeon Earth if emitted at a wavelength corresponding to the highestever observed in real life for gamma rays in natural radiation?

3. If the Enterprise slows down to o.4c and fires torpedoes at0.5c at a Klingon vessel approaching it at 0.3c then how fast arethose torpedoes approaching the Klingons, from theirperspective?
