I assume they meant the object is moving along the line with the given angle from the object, therefore, to find the actual distance between A and B, you do need to take into account the orientation of the object to find both the longitudinal distance along the movement path and the transverse distance between the two corners of the rectangle. You’ll then need to find the final distance by using Pythagoras theorem.

It’s a copy/pasted answer from a LLM. I think relativistic effects would be significant, too
Wouldnt the relativistic effect only matter if i specified the point of reference?
Also, the approximation is terrible
